We all know that one of the best WRs in our history has a kid this years draft who is projected to be just as good as pops. Is there a real possibility that the Colts trade up with say the Bears to draft him since he is in a position of need for us? We seem to have a good trade relationship with the Bears and have a history of trading up for players we like. Do you think the FO trades some assets to get the hometown guy or do they keep the assets to take best available at their original spot?
TLDR: Trying to gauge my hopes of getting MH Jr. before draft season starts to know whether I should let it go or not
The MHJ to Colts dream is dead.
Only possible ways it can happen (in order of least to most realistic):
Off the Field scandal
Devastating Injury to MHJ that hurts his stock enough to fall
Colts Trade Up (something Ballard has yet to do in Round 1 and only done 3x with the Colts, 0x in the 2021-2023 Drafts)
He joins via trade or as a free agent years down the line
