  1. In my opinion if we are staying at 15 it’s because one on Nabers, Bowers, Rome or MHJ dropped to that spot. Otherwise I see the FO trading down at least once to the bottom of the 1st or completely into day two…… No other offensive weapon has the upside of those 4 and worthy of a top half of the first round pick…..
  2. https://coltswire.usatoday.com/2024/03/26/colts-free-agency-danielle-hunter-texans-offered-more-money/ Prime example of a player "CHOOSING" to play somewhere else versus come to Naptown. He chose less money to play for Houston. This happens to both of our major franchises, the Pacers and the Colts. This is not a GM issue, this is a culture issue. Indiana is a flyover state and thus most free agents will choose to fly over as well and sign with a franchise in a larger city, larger market. You can say he did it because he likes the Texans chances with Stroud versus the Colts with AR5 - but, big time free agents have skipped the Colts even during the Manning and Luck era's too. Perhaps someday some of you armchair GM's will realize this and stop whining so much about the FO............Polian, Grigson and Ballard alike.
  3. I just came for the comments........and seeing people lose their minds! LOL
  4. Big-name, washed-up player and Frank Gore is an anomaly as NOBODY expected him to have several good seasons with us. Let's try 24-26 year old stud players coming into their primes.......
  5. I would guess that as well. Yet, Ballard is bashed, Grigson was run out of town..........Polian was respected but a lot didn't like his philosophy either. Having said that, when you hit on so many HoF draft picks, win a Grey Cup, take the Bills to four straight SB's, the Panthers almost to one and then ultimately win one with your very first draft pick with the Colts, it's hard not to root for the guy.
  6. Novel concept.......but most of the 'fans' on here then call him Bargain Bin or dumpster diving..........heck, a lot of folks are mad he didn't re-sign Autry even though most of those very same people said he was a 'camp body' when he signed him as a free agent. So again, there is literally no pleasing most people on this board.
  7. All you folks psycho-babbling about free agency and the front office not making splashes……please remember that it takes two to tango! Polian didn’t sign high priced big name free agents….. Grigson didn’t either….. And neither has Ballard….. Two potential take aways, maybe those high priced big names players just didn’t want to play in Naptown? Maybe the Owner doesn’t want to overpay those guys…. But hey, if you want to raise your blood pressure over Ballard not signing a guy you think he should then go right ahead!
  8. And if the front office pulls out of this potential trade then all of the naysayers that complain about Ballard not trying to get premier players onto the roster will whine even more. Double edged sword…..
  9. Luke from Stampede Blue and Stephen Holder from ESPN also have reported the same thing - trade agreed to in principle but the holdup being the long term contract discussions with Sneed. Where there is smoke, there is fire. If it comes to fruition then great, if not, you can’t miss what you never had!
  10. I’m guessing draft pick and a player for Sneed. KC released most of their WR’s so Pierce makes sense for them - especially since Mahomes can actually push the ball downfield.
  11. I actually logged back on today to apologize for my choice of verbiage! It was uncalled for and I shouldn’t have projected my frustrations with a lot of ‘fans’ and their incessant negativity on you.
  12. Unless you can go back and provide a snapshot of you saying that when Matt Ryan was signed then you can't use hindsight as a crutch..........seriously, how miserable are you in life to poo poo on EVERY SINGLE MOVE this front office makes?
  13. I didn't see the other posters correction, my bad for double tapping ya!
  14. Do some of y’all actually stop and read the stuff you write prior to posting? We are FANS of the Colts, not front office staff. Some of y’all in here act as though you’re sitting in the war room making decisions and part of the roster building process right along with them. Your opinion(s) are no more valuable than mine or any other posters. Just stop already with your condescending comments and retorts already.
  15. With all of Hull (knee), Downs (knee), Flowers (Achilles) and Dulin (knee) coming off of injuries I wonder if CB will target a WR or DB who can be a returner and provide depth? The guy that comes to mind for me is Donovan Peoples-Jones. Thoughts?
  16. Based off of the attached list of free agent QB's............if you squint REALLY HARD you could possibly see a Joshua Dobbs or a Tyler Huntley as possibilities? But even THAT is a stretch! Joe Milton in the draft seems like a natural back-up to AR5 as they are similar in skill set and similar in measurables........
  17. JT Hull Sermon Goodson That is a versatile backfield ESPECIALLY because JT is a bellcow and the other three will get minimal reps anyhow
  18. I may be late to the party, but, I really like the re-signing of Big Grove and now the even bigger Raekwon Davis. CB has Re-signed all the key free agents that are needed for stability/continuity and now has addressed an obvious weakness in the depth of the defense -all in the first two days of free agency! I read that Blackmon has deleted his Colts content and/or unfollowed the Colts so I’m guessing a new safety will be signed soon enough as well….. Perhaps Kamren Kurl, CGJ or Jordan Fuller? I mean if he shot for the stars and signed Simmons that would be awesome too!
  19. Posing this Madden style question….. In your own opinion would Moore as a Safety be better for the overall performance of defense than Moore as the Nickel? He did play a lot of safety at Valdosta State in College. Makes me wonder if all of Brents, Jones and Flowers could handle the outside and slot if the defense would be better with Moore as a safety? I’m not suggesting this is what the team will do, or should do……just a question for you gurus out there! 😊
  20. Ahhhhhh that time of the year when the very definition of insanity rears its ugly head again, and again, and again….. Find another team to ‘cheer’ for if you are that upset and miserable about how this team is ran. Bye…..don’t let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya!
