ELITE: the word is entirely appropriate to use as a description of Austin Collie's performance in 2010, before the injuries.

Collie opened the season with six touchdowns over the first six weeks for Indianapolis, catching 44 passes on 54 targets, averaging 83.8 yards per game. At that point, with the Colts headed into their bye, the second-year receiver had caught 11 TD passes over his previous 14 NFL games, playoffs included. He was a machine. We all agreed. Collie was an elite fantasy asset, a high-volume receiver in a high-yield offense. And he was producing while Clark, Addai, Garcon and Wayne were all active, just for the record. It's not like his early performance was some injury-related accident, where the depth chart simply coughed up his name. No, with the Colts' offense at full strength, Collie was a monster.

Look at this he played in 9 but only started 6 games and had 58 catches for 649 yards averaging 11.2 per catch with 8 touchdowns(he was looking at a 1500 yards season with 16 touchdowns and 120+ receptions if he would of kept this performance up)+he is a slot reciever)

I think this guy will have a huge break out year if he stays healthy as in playing all 16 games---I'm predicting easly 85 catches 1000 yards 10 touchdowns

what do you think?????

He can be a stud! He came back for that Philly game and was tearing them up! They had no answer for him. If he hadn't gotten hurt again, we would have won that game and honestly, if he was healthy for the season, we would not have lost to the Jets.

I hope he stays healthy, I really believe he was running a lot of routes Clark did, so I see Clark taking those hits this year, which we know he can take.

You can't make pointless predictions based upon last years stat total.He is what he is( 58 catches for 649 yards averaging 11.2 per catch with 8 touchdowns)...nothing more.Those numbers are good,but not elite.This guy will never be elite,because he's just to much of a wuss.And he'll never play a full season of ball.

The kid's a monster. I think he will have a huge year this year, barring Peyton attempting to end his life like he did twice last year(maybe 3 times). If he doesn't get decapitated I fully feel he is the best option out there after Wayne on offense. Too bad Moss retired...he would have helped Collie get to 1300 yds and 15 TDs this year.

Those 2 years are almost the same(very average).He's a solid back-up.But he's nothing more than that and now he's damaged goods(one too many whacks to the head).I think he'll begin to hear footsteps every time he goes over the middle and cause a lot of tipped ball INTS in the process.He'll get replaced soon.

Easy to be tough behind your computer moniter. How many concussions have you played through?

Maybe u had too many whacks in the head, the point was he was on pace to having a monster year. Maybe ure just a hater.

He had a huge, breakout year last year in half a season. Had he played a full year he may have eclipsed the 15 TD grabs Dwayne Bowe racked up, and he could have potentially led the league in rec. yards.

This season he's just going to continue to produce.

Keep dreamin' squid.lol!Thanks for the chuckle though...

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By shasta519 · Posted

      I don't see any scenario where they are giving up next year's R1 pick. It would be an opportunistic trade up that they can likely spread over this draft and next draft.   The MOST we have seen Ballard additionally give up in trade-ups is a mid-late R5 pick. Tyquan, JT, Cross.    For him to give up even a Day 2 pick would be out of character. So it would have to be quite the opportunity.

      So you would take Bowers over the top corner and/or edge or do you mean if they were equal value? Bowers looks good on tape but his size scares me a little for a team that is intent on running the ball. I think we have a lot of flash TE's on this roster already that need some time to develop with Richardson. You look at the TE room and I do some talent there but need time. I look at the corner and edge room and I  go meh!!

      Free agency tells you a lot where a team is going in the draft. They really see the need for a true rush end and even corner

      They wont go by that.  All of the above will be ranked on list together and it wont necessarily be by position

      Turner will not fall to us. He will be gone early . Everyone is expecting these wrs to fly off the board. Harbaugh builds in the trenches. I wouldn't shocked if he went D line early. Look at San Fran and Michigan. Power football and build in the trenches. This is a wr stacked draft and DE's are a luxury in this draft. U better get one early. Would  I trade up to get  a guy like Turner and or insert name if I believed he could be our next Freeney? U bet I would. Ballard has used the approach of trading back and hoping that the DE he drafts will become that guy and it hasn't turned out well for the Colts. To me it is time to target and go after that guy and if it means giving up a #1 then so be it. IF you go after a guy like Turner and he becomes that guy, you will not miss next year's 1st pick.  I do have a lot of faith in Richardson and  I feel if he stays healthy, he will be a superstar. So if Richardson comes in and lights it up and you have Turner, you are probably picking in the early 20's next year. So would i give up our #15 and next years #20 for a guy like Turner? For sure. IF Richardson bombs out and we finish with a top 5 pick, so be it. Houston took a gamble going for Anderson at 3 and how does that look now? They gave up their 1st this year which is in the 20's. I will take that every day. I actually don't think our 15 and next years 1st rounder would be enough to move up to get a guy like Turner. I think a GM say in the top 8 would project next years pick to be in the 20's based on what they feel would transpire with Richardson as our guy. Just my thoughts
