I wouldn't mind us adding him either. But if it was Bowe or Smith, I honestly don't know who I would pick. In Payton we trust.

The Colts get the Saints original fourth round pick...by rule, you have to give up the pick that is yours..you cannot use picks obtained in trade and it is not negotiable. So it is indeed our last pick in the 4th round. You heard from me that Bowe did not interview well with the Saints. That is straight from Payton and Curtis Johnson. They still may take him if he is by ahead of everyone else on their board but dont count on it. And 4 years for a 24 year old corner with 3 years starting experience is not too long at all...and with the rate CB's are getting paid these days, thats kind of a bargain when you consider that the majority of the money is coming in the first year of the deal, not the back end of it. It was structured that way so the Colts couldnt match it and it worked out for the Saints.

Also, his great willingness and ability to block can not be overlooked or ignored. I agree he has cases of the dropsies sometimes but did improved last year over his junior year performance and could continue to improve.
I see your point of getting a stretch the field guy but Smith is definetly not that guy. In fact, he is known as more of a precise route runner and possession receiver and not a big play, home run threat. He does not always play as fast as his combine time. Not to say I wouldn't mind at all having Smith, but hes not a vertical specialist by any means. The difference between Bowe and Smith seem to be that Smith runs better routes but Bowe has bigger size. I dont mind us getting either of them. |

I agree although I can't back it up. It does make sense that we'd have to trade the 4th round pick that is/was originally ours - not any 4th rd pick we have.
