Trade Quincy Wilson for a pick
The time has come for the Colts to move on from their former second-round pick. Wilson doesn’t have a role in the defense and he’s still young enough and projectable enough to warrant a trade for a Day 3 pick. With the Colts moving in another direction in the cornerback room, Ballard has to try to get something before he hits free agency in 2021.
There are a lot of teams who might be willing to part ways with the 23-year-old, especially a team that uses more press-man and Cover 3 looks. Wilson has flashed enough to be traded and even though teams don’t like to trade for bad players, there is at least some upside with Wilson.
It might not happen, but we’ve seen Ballard make player-for-pick trades during the middle of the draft and this is one they should highly consider.
