As for the Colts taking Dorsett, this is quite possibly a good thing. They are already strong at the position with Hilton, AJ, and Moncrief, and there is only one football to go around.
Far worse would have been if the Colts decided to bolster their defense or running game. Of course, we're just one round in & they are likely to address those needs today, but at this point, an extra receiver isn't going to make their offense much more explosive than it would have been anyway.
And agreed on Mariota... I fear whether the Titans will be able to protect him, and watching him at Oregon, my immediate thought was that he was going to be hit hard in the NFL. It's a QB league, so I can't fault the Titans for recognizing that and trying to address it, but at the least this seems like the team will have to take a step back before taking a step forward.
