reggie, nicks, butler, redding, canstanzo, I believe freeman. who gets resigned

 

Here is the full list according to overthecap.com

 

It's not updated for players that where cut or traded it seems.  For example Satele is still on there.  I've done my best to remove the players I know are gone.

 

UFA                                             My opinion

 

Reggie Wayne                          Maybe 1 year deal, most likely retire

Hakeem Nicks                           Don't know depends on play

Matt Hasselbeck                       Retiring

Cory Redding                           Let walk and replace.  Only back on 1 year deal if necessary

Anthony Castanzo                    Re-sign long term 4 or 5  years

Darius Butler                            re-sign on small deal

Fili Moala                                 Let walk

Sergio Brown                           re-sign for small deal

Ahmad Bradshaw                     Most likely let walk but depends on play

Andy Studebaker                     re-sign on small deal - good special teams player

Corey Lynch                            Don't know enough

Weslye Saunders                    Let walk, replace with rookie who can develop into a TE2

Kelvin Sheppard                      Most likely let walk

 

RFA

Chris Rainey                           Do not tender

Jerrell Freeman                       1st round tender

Delano Howell                          original round tender

Mario Harvey                            Don't know

Stanley Havili                           2nd round tender

Matt Overton                           2nd round tender

 

EFA

Dan Herron                            Do not tender

Jeris Pendleton                      Don't know

Da'Rick Rogers                      Tender

Sheldon Price                        Tender

Daniel Adongo                       Don't know

Xavier Nixon                           Tender

Josh McNary                          Tender

Griff Whalen                           Tender

Way to early to tell but I would imagine we pick up the option on Constanzo unless there is a LT that we like on the market. Wayne will probably retire, Redding let go, I would imagine we would sign Nicks if he works well in our system to a 3-4 yr deal. Freeman we will definately tender along with likely Havili, Rogers, Whalen, and Mcnary. I would like to bring Butler back but it will likely depend on his asking price...how Gordy fairs and if we sign any rookies.

a TE2? we already have a TE 2. Dwayne Allen is our sure fire 1 and Coby fleener is a 2 with 1 potential.

What is the story with luck and co. contracts can we start negotiating from this season or do we still have to wait. I think I would prefer having their contracts extended by the end of this season. I think it would allows us see and plan our cap space and ability to add or cut as needs be at the end of the season.

The new CBA states that a team can renegotiate with a player after the end of their 3rd season.  So should the Colts choose to do so they can talk to Luck's agent next off season.

Anybody think maybe it was a good thing Grigs didn't sign every free agent on the market now? Jeffery Jeff you see that list?

 

FA are always over paid Grigs was smart we will keep the players he wants, we will have the money to decide who we want.

 

I'd see what Sheppard and Moloa before we just let them walk see how much they want. 87 can stay as long as he wants he isn't going to try and break the bank

And in 1 year from this free agency period we're likely gonna have to let one of them (probably Fleener) walk in free agency.  We likely can't afford to pay them both.  So get a rookie who can develop into a #2.

Freeman, Castanzo, and Nicks will be important. I think Reggie is a guarantee.... but Redding probably be replaced by someone we either already have, or draft soon. Butler I would love to see back, but I'm not sure about.

Butler was our 2nd if not arguably our best CB last season. If he keeps that up (most likely will if Toler goes down again this season) I don't see why he can't be re-signed

    • Sure alot can get a 1000 yards, but what makes wrs elite are the ones who score alot and catch first downs. Colts don't have a wr on the roster that scores alot. Pittman is a wr 2 in my opinion. Pierce a wr 4 with wr 2 potential. Downs wr 2/3. Neither one of those guys are marvin Harrison  or Reggie Wayne. None of our safeties are Bob sanders. None of our edge rushers are freeney or Mathis. No Nick harpers, Kelvin Hayden, marlin Jackson, or vontaome Davis at cb So we can stand to improve  at wr, s, pass rush,and cb. We have alot of solid  guys sprinkled across the roster but very few I'd consider  elite. Buckner, Nelson, and a healthy Taylor  are among the elite. That is why I'm hoping for a game changing player in the first round. Most rookie corners aren't  that.
    • Two relevant points.   Regarding the team ALWAYS going to be run first team, RB shelf life is short and JT has already played a lot of years compared to average peak time for RBs, so there aren't many years in him into the future unless he goes on like Adrian Peterson. This team was run first because QBs weren't good, was it run first with Andrew Luck? I don't think this team is going to be run-first offense ALWAYS, especially after drafting AR, while expecting him to grow to be a franchise QB-level passer.   Yes, it's all true that Jefferson got drafted at 22,Ceedee went 17, Juedy went 15 , Aiyuk 25 and Higgins 33 but GM has gotta pick the right guy at right time and other teams shouldn't get to the right guy before Colts do.   For every Jefferson at #22 example, there's a Jalen Reagor at #21. The toughest part in picking Jefferson at #22 is not picking a bust like Reagor and missing out on Jefferson. As you go away from the top of the Draft, hitting on busts is more likely than exactly drafting the perfect right guy. Drafting isn't that easy, without the help of hindsight.    Right now, We can't name which of the WRs in upcoming draft will be a good value, good return pick, even though this draft class is super, super deep on WRs. Of course, 4 years later in 2028, everyone can point out Jefferson or Higgins or Lamb or Aiyuk of 2024 WR Draft Class. 
    • No idea why you can't PM me. I did pm u a week or two ago. No idea if u received it.
    • Replace Arnold with Brian thomas jr  and I'll agree
    • This draft is loaded with offensive talent as Ballard noted. The move up to try to secure a MHJ , Nabers or Rome will be STEEP. People are forgetting how good a Adonai , Brian Thomas, Troy Franklin or Legette could be. This team will always be a run first team not a pass centered team so the need for a DYNAMIC Wr isn’t really as pressing as people make it seem. You can still get quality players if you trade back and acquire more picks for MORE quality players. Just look at the 2020 draft class Justin Jefferson didn’t come off the board until pick 22.  Ceedee went 17. Juedy went 15 , Aiyuk 25 and Higgins 33. So I disagree I don’t think we NEED to trade up and I surely hope they don’t.
