  1. OP, My mind shifts to can we complete a pass longer than 10 yards down the field with Minshew. He's a backup for a reason.
  2. Yes. He's paid top dollar for top talent, not for being Wolverine. Those things are mutually exclusive.
  3. Anthony Richardson Development Ahead of Schedule This is a great breakdown. As a UF alum who watched all his games this is a great analysis. Richardson's flaws and tendencies aren't exactly what people assume who just see his stats and highlights.
  4. It's crazy to me how most people stand up 100% for management when it comes to their sports team's players vs their employer, yet are 100% against management when it's them vs their employer. I still don't understand this logic........
  5. Banogu and Turay stand out. The rest of those guys were 3rd day picks in the not for long (NFL) league, it's to be expected. Blaming Ballard or any GM for 5th, 6th and 7th round picks that don't pan out is like blaming a spouse for trying a new crazy recipe and you not liking it. Get over yourself!
  6. Yes. This team has a poor roster and a rookie QB. The last thing you want is the QB to lose confidence or take too many hits. You know what helps a QB more than anything (except an exceptional Oline) a great RB. Pay the man while you're not paying anybody else on the offense outside of your LG. Let him build up Richardson's confidence and experience and if he can't stay healthy get rid of him (a la Edge and Faulk) and find your consolation Addai in the 2024 or 2025 draft. People on this board are acting like the Colts have a chance at the playoffs this year and if they keep their cap flexibility they could sign or trade for a piece that puts us over the top. That's not close to the case. Make the most of this year with what we have and build. And we're not going to build getting rid of our best player on offense who touches the ball...........
  7. This mindset is so silly. So don't re-sign your standout draft picks. Who's coming here? Name the last great FA's who've come here? If you let your best draft picks all walk due to injury we will end up being the Browns or the Jaguars or the Washington Foosball Team. I really hate this logic because what's the alternative? Show me where we've done better than to re-sign Luck, Nelson, Kelly and Leonard. So let's let them walk and just keep drafting so we can miss on half and not re-sign the ones we knock out the park because they get injured. I really wish we re-sign Taylor for 3 years and see how much he helps Richardson. As a UF alum who's watched every game since '05, Richardson is special but he's played with garbage compared to his contemporaries. You can't name one skill position player he played with but Young has like 5 first round NFL picks he played with. Give him this Oline and Taylor and I think we can have a top 15 offense with a raw rookie QB. Building his confidence is worth way more than a lost season of paying a hurt RB. Look at the long game not the immediate.
  8. The Colts aren't serious about trading JT. No one is paying a 1st round to trade for a RB when they will barely draft a RB 1st round and have to pay them pennies for 5 years? This is just like telling someone, "Yes, I'm willing to sell my Tops Platinum Edition 1 of 1 Peyton Manning rookie card for........$1 jabillion dollars!" If Irsay was going to take this route, he should've done it weeks ago........
  9. C'mon! We all know how this works. The next guy to get paid, gets more than the last guy that got paid, especially when the cap keeps increasing. No QB is better than Mahomes but several make more than him. JT doesn't have to be better than Henry to make more than him. I agree he shouldn't get the CMC/Kamara premium of being a RB/WR but he should surely be the highest paid pure RB in the NFL if you think he can stay healthy. JT is by far the best offensive player on our team who touches the ball and probably the 2nd best offensive player on the team period behind Nelson. Pay the man. 5 years, $65M with a modest signing bonus and hope we keep him that entire contract because that would mean he's out performing it.
