I'd get those medical records and check out that back 1st tho......if it's good then by all means sign him.
Ballard, most likely, has already seen them when he was at KC. I don't think he would bring him in if he had any concerns.
-
Ballard certainly knows the man. He won't be leaving the building. I was wondering who would be visiting next. Great choice! This signing will be a big difference maker for us.

If Poe has 4 other teams he's talking to he's probably going to command a pretty penny for his services...just saying.
Not a problem! No more than Brandon Williams, he set the high bar. We finally get our NT and 1st. major impact player! I know I'm jumping the gun but I can't help it.

I would prefer to try to win at ALL costs every year, instead of wasting a couple more years of Andrew Luck's prime....I'm sure the slow process can work IF you hit on draft picks and they avoid injuries, but it's not guaranteed..I think with our offense we should make trades for impact guys if the opportunity is there, and go after playmakers in free agency even if they are expensive.. The thought of going into a season without a Super Bowl as the goal when Andrew Luck is your QB isn't the best strategy in my opinion...Why not go all in now? Pay what it takes to bring in Hightower, Poe, Claiborne, and Barwin.. Draft a franchise RB, OLB, IlB, and G in draft who can make impacts and we would be instant contenders...Instead, it looks like we are gonna go for mid level guys in FA, let 2 of our most reliable defensive players go and hope we nail it in the draft and wait for them to develop for 3 years.. Luck will be in his 30's with this strategy..That's what you do when he is 22 not when he is 27 getting ready to hit his prime...I don't understand the attraction to this philosophy? If we didn't have a QB I'd understand it, but it seems like a flawed plan for our situation..Sure eventually it may payoff, but what about the years we are throwing away?
I think we will be going all in to win a SB this year. We just finished 24 hrs. of FA. That's all. We have plenty of cap space and could free up more. There are plenty of quality players still available who could be impact players for us. He already made one trade that caught everyone off guard and he could do it again. And then there's the draft of course. I think he will use all avenues at his disposal to improve the team significantly this year. I think he is off to a great start. I think he could really surprise us when all is said and done. It's still early and he's still hunting and working the phones. I'm feeling pretty good right now. Can't wait to see what his next move will be.

If we lose out on Hightower I hope we bring in Kevin Minter.

I wonder what the numbers are. I was interested in him, just thought he'd be too expensive for what he brings. If it's less than $7m/year, I'm on board.
Honestly I'm on board anyway. We need pass rushers. No time to get cheap with all our cap space.

Miami just signed Timmons so they may back off Brown.
Okay they backed away from Sheard yesterday and we just signed him. Hopefully we bring Brown in for s visit.
-
He must be a tough negotiator. Could he have attended Trump University?
-
Was visiting Miami today.

Aren't the Rams trying to trade a CB?
Yes, Trumaine Johnson who they franchised. We have the cap space to give him a long term deal if we acquire him.
-
Maybe another trade coming?

Just came to post this one. Very nice! Simon was one of my favorite targets too.
Mine as well. The day is just starting and we have Sheard visiting today. This could be a very good day before it's over.

Adam S just said on ESPN that the Colrs are signing The Texans LB Simon ....no link as I watched it on tv.
Yes! Albert Breer just reported it. 3yr. 13.5M. Excellent pickup!
-
I actually think we will sign him. We will move him back to his familiar OLB position where he was excellent before they tried to make him an end. Great locker room guy too. A solid value add as we bring in younger ER as well.
-
I would give it to Hankins . He's 25 and Poe 27. We would return him to NT where he belongs. Poe would be my second choice. Poe is more of a 3 down player but he has had injury issues. Can't lose with either really but I prefer Hankins.

That's the ceiling! Time to grab Hankins asap! He's 25 and Poe's 27.
-
Williams is now resigning with the Ravens. Please get Hankins! Please! Brown visiting the Dolphins. Hightower most likely stays with the Pats. Would love Simon and Minter. Grab Kendricks, when he's cut, and Pasztor.
-
There's plenty of good players still out there. I can't believe Williams, Hankins, and Poe are still there at NT. Any one of them would be a great upgrade. Don't forget Hightower and Simon. And two guards Lang and Pastor. It's early. We can easily get a couple of difference makers.

Let's hope Zeitler, Lang or Warford are in our plans for tomorrow because the Jags are adding a great lineman and pass rusher. Protect Luck!

11th still isn't bad though.
I'll say. Today on NFL live Teddy Bruschi said Williams is the guy he would want his team to sign in FA if they were looking for a NT. He said a big powerful NT like Williams is the linebackers best friend. Commanding a double team frees up the LB'ers to make more plays and avoid blocks from the OL. Williams is the player he chose off the FA DL list.

I'd be fine with trading a 5th for him. He's only 26 and likely better than anyone we'd pick up in the 5th round.
We could trade the pick we just received from the Patriots for him.

He's slated to make $4.5mil, cutting him would be $2.5mil in dead cap. So they'd actually save $2mil by cutting him, but doesn't really make sense to do so. CB isn't exactly a deep position group for the Colts, especially if they re-sign Butler and move him to safety.
Yes they resign Butler and move him to safety. Robinson to the slot and Boyue to the other corner. Perfect!

I definitely can see a trade coming. Pats are trying to trade M. Butler and Rams are trying to trade T. Johnson after franchising him. And of course there are corners on other teams that could be available. I too think we will draft a corner but not necessarily with our 1st pick. I think he has something in the works in this FA period.
