Kevin & Query - Thursday 8/10 - Live from Colts Training Camp, Darrell Baker Jr, Mike Chappell, and Field Yates are All on the Program. Aug 10, 2023

Show notes

(00:00 - 28:12) - The show kicks off with Colt's cornerback Darrell Baker Jr. joining the show. Marc and Kevin ask him questions about being born in Panama and coming over to the U.S. and his life in Georgia prior to becoming a pro. They talk about his teammates, who he is learning from, who is helping him get settled with the team, and who talks the best trash. News breaks mid-segment that practice will be moved inside during training camp today due to poor field conditions. Kareem Hunt did not leave with a deal in Indianapolis yesterday, so the Colts signs Hunt Lee from Philadelphia.

(28:13 - 32:54) - Morning Checkdown

(32:55 - 45:27) - A recap of the events taking place in Maui. The Colt's first depth chart was released for the pre-season yesterday. Marc and Kevin go back and forth on some of the names the Colts will be playing, and some the team will be facing. Colts defense takes center stage of conversation in regard to what players are running out of time to prove themselves as being valuable parts of the defensive unit.

(45:28 - 1:14:33) - Going over the Matt Ryan conversation on Adam Schefter's podcast. Ryan talks as if he is surprised that running backs have been neglected in the league for so long. Kevin and Marc go over the franchise tags for each position in the league. The franchise tag cap is expected to rise from 10 to 13 million in 2024. More Ryan and Schefter clips played about Ryan's feelings on if Jonathan Taylor will play for the Colts this season or try to sit the season out.

(1:14:34 - 1:34:27) - Someone called in and actually wanted to talk Notre Dame basketball. Producer Sam's microphone is finally working. More talk of Kareem Hunt leaving Indianapolis without a contract last night. Colts practice was moved indoors. Kevin is hoping to hear more from Colts Head Coach Shane Steichen today on what kind of minutes starters will play in joint practices and the pre-season.

(1:34:29 - 1:34:27) - More talk about Anthony Richardson starting. Should he be getting the hits that a quarterback would usually be taking in the regular season now that he is no longer going up against pros instead of college players.

(1:34:28 - 1:43:04) - Pop Quiz

(1:43:05 - 2:06:44) - Mike Chappell of Fox59 joins the show to talk updates on the Colts. Chappell has been on the scene at Colts training camp just as much as The Fan's Kevin Bowen. He goes into depth on all the Colts roster moved over the last few days. Picking up running backs and cornerbacks to prepare for the regular season. When is the last time a player like Jonathan Taylor rehabbing off site and away from training camp was viewed as a good thing? The last thing for Richardson to prove himself to Chappell is to have him take some contact against professional level players.

(2:06:45 - 2:20:40) - ESPN's Field Yates closes out the show with Marc & Kevin. Yates says there has been a lot of front office talk about the Jonathan Taylor situation. Colt's owner Jim Irsay may have hurt Chris Ballard's ability to trade Jonathan Taylor with his comments on Twitter/X. Yates has heard there is a market for a trade with another team and Jonathan Taylor, but as time rolls on the ability to get maximum value for him is becoming slimmer. Value wise, Indianapolis needs to be looking for a player plus a draft pick for someone like Taylor. Shifting to Fantasy Football how should fantasy players treat Jonathan Taylor as an asset given the uncertainty of him playing. Field Yates gives his core beliefs for a fantasy football draft.
