Colts insider Nate Atkins answers the mail on whether trading for Trey Lance is a possibility and whether a new coach might keep either coordinator.
As we sit here today, it's left tackle. I say that as a blanket statement, meaning if we were stacking positional needs to draft at No. 4 overall, finding a star left tackle would be second only to quarterback. Of course, that conversation changes once they spend that pick on a quarterback.
Insulate a quarterback on his blind side and you give yourself a much better chance of avoiding the pitfalls that can bring him down early. I actually asked this question to Chris Ballard at last year's NFL combine, though it was more about trading for a veteran quarterback. He said then that no player is off-limits, and I think that remains true -- again, if there's"the guy" rather than"a guy" available. That'll be the key distinction to make between Young, C.J. Stroud and Will Levis. Ballard will and should do what he can to avoid dealing Jonathan Taylor or Pittman Jr.
Chris Ballard has been helpful before in recruiting assistants for his head coach. It's a conversation he'll have with specific candidates, and it might appeal more to some than others. An offensive coach could like what he sees in Gus Bradley's defense, which includes two assistants he's held for three straight stops now in linebackers coach Richard Smith and defensive backs coach Ron Milus.
