A few years ago, many in the media were praising the Indianapolis Colts for their “great draft picks” and “smart decisions”, first by general manager Ryan Grigson is the first half of the 2010s, then by his replacement Chris Ballard. As of now, the Colts are coming off of a 4-12-1 season, hold the fourth overall pick, fired their head coach (and replaced him with a retired center for the rest of the season), and they are presently set to start Gardner Minshew at quarterback.
When it comes to giving advice on running a football team, I don’t know if I’d put Colts owner Jim Irsay in my top-32.
