Get to know the Jaguars’ new additions from draft weekend with our ‘3 things to know’ series.

With the 2024 NFL Draft in the books, it’s time to reflect on how the Jacksonville Jaguars fared. Did Trent Baalke deliver a masterclass, or has he just set the Jags back five years? Truth is, we probably won’t know that for some time. But we can get to know the newest members of the team a little bit better. Next up in our mini-series of deep dives we bring you three things to know about Keilan Robinson, RB, Texas:

Robinson is a...

How is the Colts’ defensive depth chart looking after the draft, and is there a glaring need to solve?

Throughout this three-piece series I will be analyzing the Colts’ players on all phases of the game, with the players on the team right after the Draft, keeping in mind that it is almost a given that Ballard will bring in some veteran free-agents to shore up the team. You can check out the offensive piece here.

Defensive Tackle: DeForest Buckner, Grover Stewart / Raewkon Davis, Adetomiwa Adebawore, Eric Johnson II, Jonah Laulu, Tyquan Lewis

After re-signing Grover Stewart,...

Could the Colts be a potential landing spot for a former 2x NFL All-Pro and 4x NFL Pro Bowl veteran cornerback?

According to CBS Sports, the Indianapolis Colts are the ‘best free agent fit’ for former Miami Dolphins All-Pro cornerback Xavien Howard:

Xavien Howard

MIA • CB • #25

Best fit: Indianapolis Colts

The Colts could use some veteran help in the secondary with Julius Brents and Dallis Flowers as the projected starters. While it was surprising to see Indianapolis emerge from the draft without selecting a cornerback until pick No. 201, the...

Indianapolis got a ‘steal’ with their second-round wide receiver selection, according to PFF.

The Indianapolis Colts were one of several teams who got a ‘steal’ in the second round of the NFL Draft, according to Pro Football Focus. In the Colts’ case, they selected Texas wide receiver Adonai Mitchell No.52 overall.

For many pre-draft, Mitchell was considered a late first-round pick before falling all the way to No. 52 in the second round. It’s easy to see why experts thought so highly of the talented Texas wideout, as Mitchell, standing 6-2, 205 pounds, impressed many by running a 4.34 40-yard...

What does history tell us about year two?

Teams can add free agents and new rookies all they want, but free agency hardly ever throws a team over the top. Obviously, we saw last season that new rookies can pay immediate dividends when it comes to a team making a huge jump in the standings. Arguably though, the number one factor in teams getting better is when existing players take the next step in their development.

This is the main reason why we wait three or four years before evaluating a draft. Players like Nico Collins don’t necessarily produce right...

The Titans are going to field an explosive passing offense in 2024!

The Tennessee Titans are signing free-agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd to a one-year contract. The deal is worth “up to” $4.5 million according to a report from Jeremy Fowler. Boyd was in Nashville for an in-person visit with the Titans last week.

This officially reunites Boyd with new Titans head coach Brian Callahan after he spent the previous five seasons (2019-23) playing in Callahan’s offense with the Cincinnati Bengals. Boyd accumulated 361 receptions for 4,144 yards and 21 touchdowns across those five campaigns. There’s obviously a lot of...

There’s another encouraging update regarding the surgically repaired shoulder of franchise quarterback Anthony Richardson.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback Anthony Richardson feels like he’s a ‘full go’ beginning offseason work and with OTAs officially kicking off in a few weeks:

“This is progressing really well. I’m told (Anthony) Richardson feels he’s full go at this point,” noted ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler on SportsCenter per Bleacher Report. “He’s been throwing for a while now. He’s gradually grown to where he can throw full-time with minimal restrictions. The Colts could be deliberate. They could hold him out...

Did the Colts strike gold with their recent first two picks of pass rusher Laiatu Lau and wideout AD Mitchell?

According to PFF, their biggest takeaway regarding the Indianapolis Colts is general manager Chris Ballard’s ability to find value atop the NFL Draft—particularly as it relates to the first two rounds with their selections of UCLA edge Laiatu Latu and Texas wide receiver AD Mitchell:

The Colts have a clear fan of their draft class in NFL.com, who believes it’s a Top 10 rookie class in all of football.

According to NFL.com’s Nick Shook, the Indianapolis Colts have the league’s sixth best rookie draft class following the results of the 2024 NFL Draft:

SHOOK: I was surprised to see Indianapolis end the defensive player drought at No. 15 when they chose Laiatu Latu, not because he wasn’t deserving of such a selection, but because I thought they might look elsewhere. Instead, the Colts took an edge rusher who was among the best in the...

The Colts’ latest draft pick is the newest installment of their established pass rush pipeline.

The Indianapolis Colts have no doubt fortified its defensive line with the addition of UCLA EDGE Laiatu Latu. An already deep front, Latu only strengthens the services the Indy DL has to offer.

The draft selection of Laiatu Latu continues what has seemingly been a coincidence-turned-trend which has now evolved into a pipeline of sorts. Coach Eddy McGilvera, otherwise known as Coach Ed on social media for being a well-regarded trainer who specializes in pass rush technique, has been an underlying force behind the pass...
