I feel like he played well and hopefully can avoid the injuries next year.  If so, I think Clayton can be a special player.  As we all know though injuries can really be a *^%*#!!!

Somehow for the Colts it would probably make it worse!!!

So we basically have 2 maybe 3 long term starters on the defense.  Everyone else needs to be replaced.

There is no way this article is what broke that news to you...

Hopefully next year we'll see TJ Green as #1 on that list...

A HEALTHY Geathers is what this team needs.....plus other parts, just sayin'.

[RockThatBlue]

I think if he stays healthy that Geathers will have a big year.

I agree-- but tend to think the secondary's performance is going to be influenced heavily by how we address our LB woes.  Right now we don't have a single legitimate pass-rusher on this team (Walden had his best 'sack year' with 11 last season -- in his other 8 years, he had 6 sacks once, 3 sacks five times, and 0 sacks once -- he isn't a guy who's putting fear into opposing offenses, nor do I expect him to improve on last year's total at age 32).

 

If we can't rush the opposing QB, and if we can't contain the RB with our front 7, our back 4 is going to have a difficult time.  I think with Vontae we have a stud, with Geathers we have a very good player (if healthy) and then we have some question marks elsewhere (will Green improve and be our FS? do we bring back Adams, and does his production not fall off at age 36? Is Butler a slot CB or a FS if Adams isn't back and Green doesn't vastly improve? Can Patrick Robinson stay healthy? Can any of the other players in our secondary be effective consistently? Do we go after talent in FA or draft?).

I disagree, the Colts have

Davis

Geathers

E.Jackson

H.Anderson

K.Langford.

 

If they resign Walden that is 6.  Then you have players like Parry, Kerr, McGill who are all very good rotational guys.  And it's too early to make te call on guys like Green, Morrison, R.Melvin (who started playing pretty well the last few games of the season, P. Robinson.  The Colts need some D help, but it's not like they need to replace 20-25 guys on D

I believe Hassan Ridgeway showed promise near the end of the year and may take that 2nd year leap that Dungy always spoke of.

[The Peytonator]

I really like Geathers. Going into the draft I felt he would ultimately be the best safety in his class. So far Landon Collins has him beat, but if Clayton can stay healthy he'll give him a run for that distinction.

You cannot crown Edwin Jackson. He's not bad but he's nothing special . A rotational guy at best. I know we're desperate for answers at LB but let's let Ballard build up the team with "good" players instead of trying to overrate average rotational guys. Those days are over I think.

[Coffeedrinker]

Fair enough.  I just like what I saw from him and I think he can be a long term starter in the NFL.
