Would You Make This Trade?


Recommended Posts

Sometimes it's fun to deal in hypotheticals...that being said, let's play a little game called "would you make this trade"

Rules are you come up with a hypothetical trade that is close to fair for both teams, and the person replying has to come up with a trade of their own. Let's try and keep this Colts related.

Would you make this trade? Vontae Davis for Khalil Mack?

I'd never consider doing that trade from a Colts perspective.

What about moncrief and a 3rd for OT/G Joel bitonio and NT Phil Taylor from Cleveland?

its interesting but i doubt we could get both of those guys with that trade.  it might catch their attention though

I know he wants a good payday. I'm not sure how are contracts ending next year would even make this a possibility, but Getting Mo Wilkerson from the jets :)

 

IMO we should build our team like the Seahawks and Patriots - hope to find good offensive players fall in their laps, but build the OL, DL, and LBs heavily.

 

I would have let TY walk, also let either Allen or Fleener walk.

Re-signed George Costanza to start the season instead, then trade TY and one of the TEs for Wilkerson, or a draft pick.

 

I'm glad though that outside of Dorsett, our entire draft was pretty much defense.

Na man that's stupid. That's trading for one weakness and creating another. If we have a huge need for a edge rusher after this season we'd be better off trading our entire draft to move into the top 5-10 and getting a stud OLB. Or by signing the best available free agent. But honestly I hope Aldon Smith gets his situation straightened out and I hope we sign him either during this year or in the offseason. He may have some off the field issues, but that don't change the fact that he's one of the top 2 or 3 OLB's in the NFL.

    • Holy cow!     And then shows he should have been picked top 5 
    • This goes against everything Ballard would do, however it would be something that Irsay would love to do as he is a romantic. Probability is very very low though.
