@JakeArthurNFL Open question, who's the #2 WR? Downs has been primarily in the slot and likely too small and Dulin has been a backup his entire career.
@QuickShorTt@zachbussey Definitely not easy but not quite as difficult now as raid viewers count towards the 75. It used to not count unless those viewers refreshed their browser.
@HolderStephen AR was never going to be as good as DJ operationally right now with such limited snaps in his college and pro career. That was an impossible goal for him. His best shot was to show marked improvement (which he did) and grow. He won't get that opportunity here.

@JakeArthurNFL This is a hard cut from AR; basically, figure out if DJ is their long-term answer or not (which would be an unexpected, drastic improvement). If not, draft the next QB. AR isn't going to get better riding the bench; he needs playing time, which he won't get (barring an injury).
@HolderStephen It would be odd to arbitrarily stunt AR's growth, as it seems the light is starting to turn on for him, for a QB that has likely hit his ceiling and won't win you a championship, nor likely get you deep in the playoffs.
@HolderStephen What would be odd in that case is that we all expected Jones to be a better operator (despite the new system) early on. He's entering his 7th year. The better strategy is to push AR to hit his ceiling vs. who is a better 'operator' esp at this point. We want a better overall QB.
@JakeArthurNFL The Colts wanted to see marked improvement by AR. All indications are that this has been his best camp (and by no means great, but good/better). If they're close to even, the Colts should go with AR to maximize his growth and start to scratch his ceiling.
@HolderStephen 1. The Colts wanted to see marked improvement by AR. All indications are that this has been his best camp (and by no means great, but good/better).
2. Philosophically, if they're close to even, why wouldn't the Colts go with AR to continue his growth and get him snaps?
@KBowen1070 Thank you for your in-depth coverage of training camp! A bit unrelated, but has anyone asked Chris Ballard about Morocco Brown and why there was a change made there? Seemed abrupt, and I don't recall information provided.
