Really, what does Derrick Brown do?

Yea the only reason those Colts defenses worked even as well as they did which still wasn't all that great was that they scored all the fugin time. We have Mr. play defense and run the ball and try to get 1 more point than the opponent...literally the opposite of how you'd want to build a defense complimentary to the offense you have.

That's why they always faltered in the playoffs, or did for as long as they couldn't get past the Patriots.  Eventually they'd run up against a more physical team that would bully Harrison and Wayne on the outside, get in Manning's face, and get their offense out of sync.  They weren't built to win games like that.

I hope Rhule and Brady open up the offense more in the coming weeks.  When we got up two possessions on the Cardinals the game was basically over because we could just pin our ears back and try to kill Colt McCoy which Reddick, Burns, and co. excel at.  Having an offense that can hold on to the ball for more than three plays without just walking up to the opposing defense and handing them the football helps with that.

Wirfs should have been the pick. Problem was that if we did that it basically screams that Marty fuged up the prior year wasting our 2nd and 3rd on Little. Marty was just trying to keep his job. Little impacted 3 picks. The two we traded and Brown. That’s the problem with falling in love (especially when he sucked, obvious to anyone watching him at the combine drills). Smart GM move is draft IOL (like McCoy at C/G before the Saints) during the stronger IOL class of 2019 and then draft the T in the stronger tackle class of 2020. You end up with McCoy, Wirfs and a 2019 3rd instead of Little and Brown.

Wirf or wills.  But yeah Wirfs is a damn animal on the field.  You cannot teach that type of aggression

    • The best part is they compliment each other. Chuba is a more patient runner, patiently waiting for gaps to form while Rico is more explosive. I wish they would use Rico more like McCaffery was used - getting him the ball in space to take advantage of his explosivness and violence. Then have Chuba pound the middle for the tough yards.
    • I loved those late 90s-early 2000s Miami teams.  If McGahee hadn’t had that injury, he would probably have been a Top 10 all-time rusher, no doubt in my mind.  The fact he didn’t lose his leg below the knee is still a miracle.  And the fact he came back from that, made it in the NFL, and still carved out a career that included over 8k yards rushing and two pro bowls is damn impressive.  It just demonstrates how good he would have been had he never had the injury.  Prior to that, he was like nothing I had ever seen.  Like a bigger, more physical and elusive Reggie Bush.
    • Boozer may end up going higher in the draft, but agree about Caleb Wilson. Give me that dude, think he's going to translate very well and has the attitude I want on a young team.  My perfect world as of now... Trade anything not bolted down as far as vet's go. Sexton is on an expiring and would be an easy flip. Bridges, just get him somewhere else. One year left on a low $20 mil deal should be an easy trade...but the apron for many teams could haunt us.  LaMelo is the issue. Likely would have to trade our problem to someone else for their problem (Ja, Zion, Zach Lavine) to make contracts somewhat match up.  I want to build around last year's draft class, get as many bites at this draft class as possible, etc. If we get lucky and get #1 or #2, wonderful. If not, get into the top 5 or so and grab Caleb Wilson.
