If Shula were to be fired...

Would you trade for Chud from the Colts? Aren't a ton of other options if Shula was fired (you don't just bring in some random guy like Turner mid season, and there's nobody to promote from within). And if you'd want Chud here as OC, what would you give up? Colts coaching staff doesn't seem like they have a lot of time left and the GM may want to get draft picks for a coach if possible.

 

Yes it's a dumb hypothetical, but what else is there to discuss right now? And, not sure if it's even allowed in the league (maybe @Mr. Scot knows), but not sure why it wouldn't be as you can trade HC's.

I suppose it's possible. I can't recall a time it ever happened though.

Truthfully, might not be necessary. The Colts are garbage this year too and Pagano has been on the hot seat before. 

Heck, even if the staff isn't fired, Chudzinski's contract could be up. 

To be clear though, all of this is "next year" talk. I can't really see anything like this happening in the middle of a season.

Why? I don't see this team going to the SB or championship game with this offense so why not

Maybe not as dumb as you think.  Very rare that a coach would leave mid season.  I honestly have never heard of that but I don't know of anything that would stop it if you offered a high draft pick or two.  Especially if Chud would be available after the season.  I don't know when his contract would be up but the entire Colts staff may just be canned.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
