Paye hasnt even had a year 4 yet. His first 3 years are WAY better than Hendricksons first 3 years.

Are you comparing Paye to Hendrickson who is in year 8? Thats just not fair to Kwity. You need to allow guys time to develop. Ebukam is a guy they are probably gonna let walk after this year. Buck isnt getting any younger. There is plenty of room for all these guys. I think the plan is for Paye, Dayo and Latu to be the core of this defensive line for a long time.

Or maybe you just have unrealistic expectations? He is entering his 4th year. He has gotten better every year. He should continue to get better. A guy who put up 16.5 sacks last year, Trey Hendrickson, had only 6.5 sacks over his first 3 seasons combined. Kwity has 3 times that many. Hes been very good. People have to stop expecting guys to make the HOF in their early 20s.

You have to be in the top 20 to be good enough?

I admit, I didnt read his previous posts. I get so comfused as to why so many people just seem to have no interest in finding a positive thing to say, like ever.

Yeah no doubt. We had 4 guys in the top 37 in sacks last year, which means they are in the top 1/3 of all starting DL, league wide, in sacks. And 2 of those guys people are calling "misses" Make it make sense......

Kwity Paye and Dayo Odeyingbo are both very good football players. Whats wrong with having a great defensive line with tons of quality depth?

Not sure why you feel that way. We had a low ranked defense. We did not have much trouble scoring points with a back up QB.

Like the pick quite a bit. This guy has top level pass rushing traits and to get a guy like that at 15 is rare. The Colts could have a truly elite DL. They seem to have it all, including great depth at every position.

The Colts were pretty much in the middle of the pack in every major category for pass defense last year. Considering their inexperience, I dont think its fair to call them horrendous. Darrell Baker Jr was pretty bad at times, but I thought they played pretty well most of the time, all things considered. They should make a major jump this year.

Thats not what I said. I said there are other ways to improve the defense other than letting your better players on defense (Moore, Stewart, Franklin) walk, only to replace them with guys who arent any better. Different doesnt mean better.

But the team more than doubled its win total last year and didnt do any of the things you suggest to improve the team. So maybe there are better ways to improve the team? So again, I will say that maybe what you are suggesting sounds better than it really is. You all are so quick to throw in the towel every single year and get frustrated. This is after 1 promising year with a new coaching staff. Good grief man take a pill.

All Ive heard is that we need to sign all these guys off other bad teams and magically our team will be better. But if they were really difference makers why were, in most cases, their teams worse than ours? I just think you massively over rate these guys and under rate our own guys. I dont think anything you are suggesting would work.

I think you are shortchanging the guys we already have.
