Downs has been completely irrelevant all season, averaging just 3.7 receptions and 43.9 yards per game. He had as good a chance as any to break out over the past two weeks with Tyler Warren out, but he couldn't find his footing.

Negative signalProjection

Downs irrelevant at 3.7 rec/43.9 yards per game; WR4 in round 9-10.

Josh Downs, expected to be the Colts' No. 1 wide receiver with Alec Pierce on IR and Michael Pittman Jr. in Pittsburgh, has been completely irrelevant all season, averaging just 3.7 receptions and 43.9 yards per game. He couldn't break out even with Tyler Warren out over the past two weeks. Jim Moorman wouldn't consider Downs until the ninth or 10th round at best if drafting today, and only as a WR4. The one sliver of hope is that Downs formally requested a trade this week and Indianapolis has begun its rebuild after firing general manager Chris Ballard.
