The Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback search came to an end in dramatic fashion this week when they agreed to acquire Carson Wentz from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2021 third-round pick and a conditional second-rounder in next year’s draft.

It goes without saying that this is a massive gamble from GM Chris Ballard given how Wentz performed this past season, but fans would be hard-pressed to be frustrated with him pulling the trigger on this deal.
