You know what's more annoying than people creating threads about getting every free agent on the market? Repeated criticism, and "ugghhh another one of these threads" comments. Lets all be civil here. It's the off-season there is nothing going on.

Yeah, it's completely ridiculous. If you don't want to see threads on free agents, stop following the Draft and Free Agency Forum. Or better yet, DON'T CLICK ON A TOPIC IF YOU ARE JUST GOING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. I appreciate these threads. Not much else going on, and if we listened to the people who shoot down every thread we wouldn't post anything.

If the player makes sense (even as a long shot) and the poster has valid reasoning than I agree ... but, the threads about players who 99% of everyone here knows is never going to happen and basically amounts to "we should get so and so, because I recognize his name" are pretty useless.

Alot of threads for WRs, which leaves me really confused...did we not watch the same season this year? WRs were a SURPRISE strength for us this year, yeah andrew luck didnt have the prettiest stats (they were pretty good tbh, 28 total tds to 18 picks, 7 4th quarter comebacks, diff story) but he developed a nice deep ball with the WRs and it helped the young ones really grow, we got fricken TY hilton. Honestly if grigson doesnt wanna spend money on WR, i think he resigns collie to one year, and drafts a WR to develop possibly, even tho what ive seen from brazill is impressive, makes the tough catches.

 

First things first, we need to address the oline, andrew luck probably had more hits, sacks, hurryups than like a whole division's QBs put together lol.  We should probably find good potential YOUNG (stop asking for old players, what kind of logic is that when we are spanking fresh team with our "older" veterans set in stone as leaders, wayne, mathis, and redding.  What we also need is a STUD corner to play opposite of Davis, who is gonna be great this year. An upgrade at safety too (only exception id be down for ed reed).

Just a thought maybe we could add a section to speculate on free agent pick ups?  We have something like that for the draft.  I can understand everyone doesn't want to read a page full of talking about picking up players but by the same token I can understand people want to talk about free agent pick ups.  This is also a common problem that happens every year not just this year because we have money.  So maybe it would be helpful for everyone to just add a section to talk about up coming free agents where people can speculate about guys who are free and those who want to avoid those threads can.

http://www.nooooooooooooooo.com/ To all of them!!!!!

 

If it's NOT an elite o-linemen then my answer will always be http://www.nooooooooooooooo.com/ !!!!!

 

After the o-line weakness has been addressed with elite players and there is mula left over then OK, but remember Colts need to not spend everything because sometime during the course of the year might have to do an emergency pick up, so a little cap room is needed like around maybe 5-7 million...

 

I don't want the Colts to be then new old Redskins...

 

Go Colts!!!!!

In Grigson I trust!!!!!

    • Defenses are judged relative to their offenses and achievement of their defensive strategy. Notice, nothing was said about winning and losing, directly. I've seen defenses win and lose football games, just as I have seem good defenses play on the losing side. The Colts signing their own players doesn't tell me much. The Colts bringing Bradley back tells me more, and I'm not encouraged by what that is telling me.   I think the game of football is far more complex and complicated than most people believe. The tendency for many is to think in terms of plug-and-play solutions based on subjective personal opinion. That's not a winning ploy in my book. I guess we'll see what happens as it plays out on the field?
    • Latu at 15 would be interesting if they decided to stand and not trade up. He looks awesome on tape and his medical could cause him to slide and you could be getting the best pass rusher at #15 but assume some risk. Would it be better to say move up and get a pass rush and give up picks or stay at #15 and get a guy  like Latu, if he falls that far, and assume some risk? 
    • if Bowers is there at #15 and he is by far the best player there, then you take him  I don't a  see  corner of value at #15 if Mitchel is gone. If the Colts were to take a guy like Mitchell  with their 1st pick whether it be bye  trade up and/or at #15, it would suggest to me there is a shift in defensive philosophy as he is a man corner. That would be exciting for me.  To me if the  Colts are to go defense with their 1st pick, I really hope they are ready to get that guy if it means trading up. I would believe that the Colts may have one corner and maybe 3 DE's that are worthy of a top 15 pick. The rest of the corners are mostly zone corners and you can get those later in the draft. Turner, Verse and Latu. Latu is intriguing as he could slide because of medical but some say he is worthy of a top 6 pick. He reminds me of Sweat when the Colts bypassed him because of the medical and picked Sin in the 2nd.
    • And with the 15th Pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts select...    
    • There are levels to the TE debate. One one hand, the market value of the position hurts the value of an early R1 TE. With the rookie wage scale, they come into the NFL already making good money for the position, so there's no real surplus value. On the other hand, the TEs that you would want to build around don't make it to FA, so the market value doesn't matter as much. So getting one when you can is important.   But then you also see that there are great TEs taken past R1 as well.    Plus, then you have to consider the scheme. Committing a big contract to a RB seems to suggest that this team will be running the ball quite often. How often would they take advantage of Bowers? We saw this unfold in ATL. They spent early R1 draft capital on a TE and a WR...and then ran the ball all the time. So those picks have largely not been maximized.   It seems like the Bowers debate is fully dependent on him falling to #15. Then we can see how he ranks over other prospects available.
