Ballard has traded up in the past so it is possible. Not likely, but possible.
But I think the Colts draft board will have to reflect that the targeted prospect is worth going up and getting.
And if Ballard moves up - he will most certainly try to recoup some extra picks later in the draft through other trades.
So, a different take on the earlier trade proposal with the Jets:
Jets trade:
1.10
Colts trade:
1.15
3.82
2025 3rd Round Pick
So the Colts will keep their mid-2nd Round Pick this year and not trade it to the Jets....only to then trade down from there and swap it for a late 2nd Round Pick and late 3rd Round Pick.
So, in the end, the Colts will move up a little in the first round but move back 10 - 15 spots each in Round 2 and Round 3. (and worry about recouping the 2025 3rd Round pick next year)
