grigs quiet?

[CR91]

anyone else surprised grigs hasnt been making moves after the cuts? the only thing we've done is get shipley whos wearing 53 if anyone was curious 

[PrincetonTiger]

Not really

[NewColtsFan]

Just because something hasn't been done,  doesn't mean Grigson isn't TRYING to get something done.

 

It takes two sides to make a deal......

[CR91]

Not really

 

you cant sleep without realizing grigs made another move. I doubt to say its farfetched that no one has made more moves the last two years then grigs

I wasn't really impressed with the cut list Grigs had to pick from

[lennymoore24]

I think it says a lot about the rookies Grigs brought in this year, both through draft and UDFA.  Seems like he is not seeing cuts out there better than what he has.

[CR91]

I think adam synder was someone who should have looked at

How do you know they didn't and decided they liked what they had better?

Snyder doesn't qualify for the WC

[CR91]

Snyder doesn't qualify for the WC

 

I know. hes a vet

[Bravo]

We would have picked some cuts up by now...

If anything happens it will most likely be a trade but I actually don't see any big ones happening but who knows with Grigs and Co.

I don't care what he does unless it is signing some offensive linemen to fix something that has been broken for a long time.

[Dark Superman]

I'm patient, but perhaps he's waiting until we play a few regular season games to justify how we are playing.. No need to make a trade until you at least see what you have on the plate first.

[needanoline63]

Ya awfully quiet for a guy whose offensive line is in dissaray

he did sign an o-lineman

No need to make a trade at all.  Just a signing...Incognito.  Let's hold on to our drafts picks for a change if  possible.

[CS Coltsfan]

kinda surprised we didn't grab Duke Ihenscho Safety from Denver.. guess they don't think he is any better than what we have

[Loneranger]

Yeah, one will really help. How about signing five or six and fixing this problem instead of just applying temporary patches?

[Jason_]

We didn't have a chance to get duke. Washington claimed him off waivers and they would have had priority over the Colts due to last year's record.

he drafted 4 olineman in the last two drafts. he signed one of the best RTs in the game. what else do you want

[Loneranger]

I want to see Luck not taking those big hits and being protected. Too early to say about the draft picks other that where was all of that three years ago.?

you mean our first draft? we got luck weapons. also we had a lot of dead money from cutting a lot of our old players so our cap was limited not to mention indy wasnt exactly the ideal landing spot after 2011

[Cynjin]

Dear god...

 

I don't think that he would even listen to God.

[CR91]

Dear god...

 

still think im bad

[Smonroe]

He could have drafted four pro bowl linemen and signed Mack.

Of course, I'm being sarcastic. But I did want Grigs to go after proven Oline FAs. I'm mature enough to admit that I don't have anywhere near the insight of the team that he does. He saw Holmes every day, he must have thought he was coming along fine.

What I can't believe is that we're going into the Denver game with ONE healthy backup O lineman?

mack was never gonna be moved. browns would have matched whatever we gave him. we dont know what the future holds. canstanzo mewhort holmes thornton chelius can be a very good line for years

[Smonroe]

No, I was joking about Mack. Although I did want Grigs to go after the best FAs. Like I said, he knows better than any of us how to build a team. And we all know that not every move is going to work.

I get a kick out of the people that post things like "I'm sick and tired of having a bad line! " or "Grigs needs to get better players!" As if they're the only ones to know the line isn't good and it's a personal offense to them. Or that it's so easy to do.

I'm hoping they're young kids who don't know any better. I'd hate to think they're adults.

I just go back to the only useful advice my dad ever gave me. ignore the noise

[NewEra]

It's also up to our coaching to coach up said players. Also to run plays and offensive line schemes that would out them in the best position to get the job done. What I don't like is the this is what we do take it or leave it crap. One thing I can appreciate about BB. He will attack and game plan your weakness on D and strength on O.

[Warhorse]

Grigs is methodically choosing which fan advice he read here, that he needs to heed..........................

It keeps him up at night I'm sure

[Franklin County]

Where do you recommend we get all these linemen at? Is there a store near you where all the GOOD ones are?

[Superman]

Am I the only one who thinks improving the ground game is way more important than protecting Andrew Luck?

[jvan1973]

Improving the run game alone would help protect Andrew

[pgt_rob]

Honestly, I think we are set. Not much out there unless we go the Richie route.

[Coltsman1788]

Our primary running back (Trent) can't seem to do anything unless the Oline opens up a hole to run through.  And that isn't happening all that often so I'd say improving the Oline is necessary to improve the ground game. 

 

The tackles are fine...it's the interior where the Colts have been hurting.  I suspect Griggs will wait to see how the line performs with A.Q. Shippley or maybe a healthy Holmes and Mewhort before making any major adjustments/additions there. 

[NewEra]

I still think they need to improve their blocking schemes. I don't know the break down of how they block between man, zone, etc. but obviously what they are asking them to do needs major work.
