Free Safety has the weakest depth in the draft & we desperately needed a starter, I would say i can’t believe people are complaining about a guy who can cover & has a nose for the ball but it is our whiny ass fan base so it’s the norm
You are correct. Looking at the safeties left, none are as good in coverage as. There are some very good box safeties, but he’s best in coverage.

So was Pregnon IMHO.

I can't believe they didn't address the OL with that pick.

Leading up to this draft, this Forum has pretty much come to a consensus on need: OL, S, and DT. Next up in popularity was WR. I would put LB over WR myself, but I get that Thornton, Bech, and Tucker can be improved upon. Heck, I think I would even go RB before WR.

He was a 6 year starter. Torn ACL in 2024. He has a 5 year shelf life if we are lucky. DB over 30 go to the rest home.

Yeah, Safety is by far the weakest position. I predict will be two more Safeties (DBs) taken before the weekends done-- And two of the three will be DAY 1 starters over what we have on the current roster.

They must think Rogers & JPJ are starters & if they think that then Pregnon should be a non starter

OL is deep

WR is deep

DT is deep

FS is weak

If you grade all the guys around the same then you take the guy from the weakest depth position as you can get starters later on in the deeper positions

IOL isn't really a need. FS was & Stukes was a BPA type at that point.

I'm looking forward to Pat McAfee making the Colts announcement in a few minutes. His one in Nashville was one for the ages.
