This post comes across as a little cry baby ish don't you think? Not being critical, just trying to help you out. If you are going to criticise a style of writing, probably best that you don't portray the very same tendencies when doing so.....
I think we just found Brad Well's account!
I knew he was on here! -
I truely believe Brad thinks he knows more about football than anyone in the Colts Org. The guy can't write worth a darn, so instead, he uses the...I love the Colts, I am their biggest fan, but since I can't write, I will write negative stuff, so I can upset people and get attention that way.
If you want to really read good articles, Phillip Wilson is one of the best! Even when he wants to write against something we did, he does it in a great way! He is a great writer and journalist. He adds value and good insight when he writes up something.
Brad is a wanna be and honestly should either just stop all together or go find another team. The guy really has no idea most of the time what he is talking about and is one of the biggest cry babies out there.

The 24th pick is worth 740 points. All the poop the Pats threw at the Vikings adds up to about 620 points. That would have been a HUGE screwing.
Your basing it only off of some points. 4 more picks in the draft? That is deep? It wouldn't have been a HUGE screwing. You have to figure value.
-
As long as we don't sign our lives over to a team like the Vikings did with the Patriots I'm fine with trading
I like our 1st round pick, but if the Vikings offered the Colts that same deal, they should have taken it!
-
I like that schedule, gives us a couple good teams and one team that brought in a bunch of FA's, so we can see where we are at.
-
Ijalana was waived last year.
-
I disagree, he is a second year QB. Harnish isn't fine for Luck, if we can bring in someone like Hasselbeck. He has been around a lot longer, played for various teams. His eyes would be better than a rookie.Sorry, but Andrew Luck doesn't need another QB mentor. He may need a second pair of eyes, but not a mentor. Harnish should be just fine for Luck , just like Holcomb, Sorgi, Painter were just fine for Peyton.
-
If he would come rather cheap, Hasselbeck would be a great mentor for Luck.
-
I have a feeling. as he said deal, that the rumors of a trade of some type is maybe finally going to happen. He said they are in Arizona!
-
And once again, another person forgot to add the FT we gave Mcafee!!!! WHY ARE PEOPLE FORGETTING IT! It counts against that cap number, and is around 3 million I think, unless of course we get him to sign a long term deal.
But you need to add it for current money stats.

You guys can thank me for catching this!Kuharsky just tweeted:
Revised #Colts post shortly. @mzf5c5 pointed out I forgot McAfee tender. So they've spent $34,330,333 cap dollars. Sorry @PatMcAfeeShow
This means that the Colts have about 10M left. The original figures are based on Paul's numbers and the ESPN numbers.
Poor Pat, everyone keeps forgetting we tagged him! But I do think a deal needs to get done with him soon!
-
It doesn't hurt to shop him first. Let's be honest. Worst case, you get nothing.
I don't think it opens up for Reed to come here, but Pollard it would.
-
I am actually seeing:I think we're trying to have 4 good OLB's....
-- Mathis/Walden
-- Hughes/Sidbury
So, no matter what happens, even if someone gets hurt, we've got decent guys to rotate in.
That's how I'm looking at it for now at least.....
Mathis/Hughes
Walden/Sidbury

Really good read! It mentions most of our signings, but misses on a couple more. I think people are forgetting a couple signed FA's....
Yes, I wanted a few big names, we got maybe one or two, but not the big names I thought we would bring in. Some factors people are forgetting, some players might not have wanted to play for Indy. Let's face it, not everyone does. And we lost out on Vasquez, did you ever think...He had Denver with Manning or the Colts with Luck. Maybe he thought his chances at a ring were with Denver and Manning right now? Maybe that is why we didn't get him. So many unknowns for why we didn't get players. So I decided to focus on what we did do. And when I looked, we did a lot.
We filled sooooo many holes. We could have filled a couple with big names, but we did so much more.
First, most are forgetting, we tagged Mcafee!!!!! Yes, he was our FA, but we kept him. We kept our Punter and possible Kicker if we need him. He is a great player and made sure we didn't add a hole on our team.
We upgraded our OL. We brought in a RT and OG. We got rid of a few names, which we didn't need. I still think we might bring in a few more guys, hopefully at cheaper contracts, but were still better than our orginal starters and backups. Filled a HUGE hold!
We upgraded our secondary!!!! Where do we begin???? We brought in Landry, signed Toler and Butler. Yes, we kept Vaughn and I am not a fan either, but we still might find our 4th CB in the draft. Once again, HUGE hole filled. Not just with one guy, but 3!
We added 3-4 LB's to our team. I know Freeney leaving wasn't a big favorite of fans, but most knew it was coming. He isn't a 3-4 LB. If for some reason, we were to bring him back, if nobody wants him, it would be for pass rushing only and at a HUGE discount. We added two LB's, one that allows us to move Mathis to a rushing role even more, is good against the run and decent against the pass. We brought in debt for a cheap price on Sidbury. We already have Freeman, Angerer and Conner...Oh yeah, Hughes which is a pass rusher and actually did well last year as he is a 3-4 LB. He wasn't great, but wasn't as bad as he was in the past. So, our LB's are better.
We added a big boy up front. RJF I feel will do well up front with Redding. I know there is a lot of hope Chapman turns out to be the NT we need and even if McKinney does challenge him, maybe makes him a better person. Once again, upgraded our DL.
So...In ending we upgraded our OL, Secondary, LB's, DL and kept our special punter. I have NO idea, NONE as to why people are considering LT a whole. AC is doing well and only two years in. I still believe he is good and just think how good, if we have a better all around line.
The only wholes I see are we are thin at unproven WR's! But we did bring in that big WR and as many here, I am a fan of Whalen! We still have depth at RB with Ballard/Brown/Carter. I don't see them going anywhere and I believe the team is happy with them, just felt the line improvement will also help them.
We are good at TE and QB. So as it stands, we filled almost all the wholes. Still have a little money left for the draft, as I should remind you all, we had 5 or 6 starters come out of the draft last year?
Yes, we might have over paid, but as I said, I will only say we over paid until after I give the guy to PROVE to us, that he wasn't worth what we spent on him. Let him prove his contract, before we throw it under the bus.

Awesome post!!!! Glad to see someone not whine about things on here.He is one of San Frans biggest up and comers. I am thrilled with the signing. First things first, anyone who thinks that he is not a day 1 sure-fire starter is crazy. He and Redding will be locking down the DE position without question. I'm pretty excited. Our D is really starting to look intimidating. I'll admit that many of these guys have something to prove; however, the overall talent level is heads and shoulders above where we were last year.
Redding ----- Chapman ----- Jean-Francois
Walden ----- Freeman ----- Angerer ----- Mathis
V. Davis ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- G. Toler
Landry ------------------------------ Bethea
I'm sorry, but I can't help but get excited over the new look D. BUILD THE MONSTER!!!!!
-
Are you guys going to whine about every contract? It isn't your money! Who cares. It is Irsay's money. Plus, let the guys come prove themselves.
-
How do you get, wasn't super impressive in SF??? I heard he was a huge part of that defense.They signed him to a 4 year 22 million dollar deal.
Too much if you ask me. The guy isn't a sure fire starter and wasn't super impressive in SF.
Thoughts?
-
Our defense is already better!
-
With the DE we just signed, I am ok with it even more.Only time will tell, maybe he will be an all pro next year and everyone will be like why aren't they giving him a raise lol
-
I think it is fine, he is good against the run and decent in coverage, Mathis and Hughes will be used to rush the passer. If he performs, all is good.How do you feel about 8 mil guaranteed for walden?
-
I just wanna know why we haven't done anything today!
-
If we landed all three of those guys today! Well, I might have a HUGE mess to clean up! Along with yesterday, we would have filled and added depth to a lot of our issues. Then the 4 picks in the draft, can be used for who knows what!
-
I was good with giving him 6 to 7!Pretty true, but if 5 million for Vasquez is overpaying, I'm fine with overpaying.
-
If we don't get some type of big signing, I am going to go nuts!
I knew he was on here!

Why are you talking about yourself in the third person?
