Indianapolis Colts fans are still reeling from Chris Ballard’s blockbuster trade for Sauce Gardner. A lot of conversation has been made about the risk they took by giving up what they gave up, but I’d argue that it wasn’t the biggest risk of this trade. The biggest risk the Colts took her was officially handing the keys to Daniel Jones. Banking on him to be this team’s franchise QB is a big bet - but one I think was at minimum a good one. We’ll talk about why. Enjoy!
