I agree with you totally my freind,why give out grades,it means nothing till they get on the field and prove it.A kid can be loaded with talent,but if they dont have the drive 1rst,2nd if they dont have have the proper direction from coaching,and third avoid catastrophic injury they will never reach theyre full pontential.How can you grade this?For once, Irsay didn't go off the reservation like he has a tendency to on Twitter. Yes, a rookie wage scale should speed up the signing process & prevent holdouts thank God.
I don't give out draft grades. Let the season begin & then I will chime in with my analysis. Luck needed weapons to throw to I get it. Next draft had better solidify the secondary though with a lockdown corner.

schwamm " I have to agree with you,i was not a Luck fan to start with, thought he was spoiled and had a attitude,but the more i read his comments,the more he reminds me of PM.I think the same work ethic and dedication to doing things right is there,Barring injury this kid will be a great qb.I was not happy PM is gone ,and i will always be a fan of his,but its time to move on and support what we have now.
-
If Chapmans ready i think he will be,but the proofs in the pudding
-
You got that right,think Pagano can motivate tho ,or they may be gone,i cant see him putting up with less than 100%,Foster healthy could make this team
-
Ive searched high and low,nothing on him except FA,No news on recovery or anything i can find
-
Im just excited to know we will have that attacking in your face defense.A great improvement over the playing soft or should i say trying to play safe in the past wich we all know didnt work real well.IMO we will see less injuries on our side off ball because of this.Better to be the attacker than the attackee
-
Its tuff to take no matter who it is,its in the limelight on a high profile person like this.Over the years ive had 3 classmates and freinds do this,its just a total waste,and something you never get over or understand.
-
In a way i hope your wrong about Stanton,hes a legit backup with talent,id hate to see him go
-
Lol Collie is a very good receiver,when he got hurt we missed him greatly even with PM at qb,and i agree Avery will need to prove himself to get playing time ,just sayin
-
In response to your comment BleedingBlue,I would totally be shocked if we dont stop the run,I think your selling short what we have in a healthy Nevis,the free agents from the Ravens and of course the big boy from Alabama Chapman ,wich from what ive read will be ready to go by training camp.So that being said the secondary will no longer have to cover for 5 to six seconds while Freeney and Mathis are being held trying to come around the outside.Reason why,your gonna have a push up the middle.Therefor the cover guys dont have to cover for long periods of time,wich i dont care how good your secondary is,thats an impossible thing to pull off against a good QB with decent recievers
-
Brent i know you will agree with this,our secondary will no longer be a laughing stock given the chance to really play,As i recall until Nevis went down to injury our run defense was showing signs of life last year,.NO MORE undersized DLs ,no more being blown off the ball,PAGS wont stand for it.Your assement of attacking D will be right so now the secondary will have a chance to play.So now we set back and see what talent we really have .regaurdless it will be a vastly improved D from a vastly improved system.

Your right my freind only time will tell the full story,but I like what i see so for,lets just call it a step in the right directionOkay, I must address the pink elephant in the room. Yes, we are under a whole new coaching staff & GM regime in INDY moving beyond the Polian-Caldwell-Manning Era, but let's tap the brakes on the red carpet roll out for Ryan Grigson alright. The draft was a good one especially the hidden gem of NT Champman if he emerges from injury with a clean bill of health. Yes, Andrew Luck needed movable targets to throw to & those offensive voids were adequately filled IMO. Just remember, Grigson is being judged against his predecessor Bill Polian, a 6 time Executive of the Year.
Grigson may well surpass Polian in bankable draft picks & I admire his work ethic & dedication. But, success in this league is all about productivity & longevity & that comes with time. Hold off on the parade & accolades for a little while yet please. Thank you. Grigson hasn't proven anything yet.

Wow a Devin Hester that can actually catch the football !!!!!
-
Well my last post before i go yo work.I agree we couldve used Upshaw,Glenn,among other people,but i said all along that if Fleener was there that selection was a no brainer,i still stick by that comment.If we took someone else at 2 it changes whole complection of the draft and we probably dont get the other players we got,And Southwest my good freind your right these are rookies its a big step up,but the talent is there and i do have faith this staff will bring it out.SMILE EVERYONE THE FUTURE IS BRIGHT!!!!!
-
Im so entertained ,i forgot what the thread was lol
-
Hes an intellegent manBill was an architect. He is much better in the media than he was talking to and about the media....calling them "Liars and rats." I enjoyed his draft coverage.
-
Yes and should be able to keep the DL fresh and full of P and vinegar lol
-
Im excited to see how things come together i for one think this team can be much better than people think,The defense will be vastly improved and fun to watch,Offense will be a growing process but if Luck is as good and as NFL ready as they say,this team will be good enough to make people take notice.
-
He did but will be ready by training campI thought I read Chapman had a knee surgery in January, was that him? he is a good fit for NT if healthy
-
Lol dont know who will get the credit but glad C P IS gone B P was a great football mind
-
One thing i will say is if Nevis is healthy and can remain that way he will be a force
-
Fleener is just one of many keys,Reggie will be a key as will the offensive line,and establishing a cosistent running game,.Special teams will be a big key as well as a Pagono run defense.People who say end of draft isnt important dont have a clue,its very important as welll as picking up free agents,what you do there can loom large.
-
Have to admit Brent i was scratching my head for a few,but the more i tought about it,and looked up things on Allen the more it made total sense.Allen can do everything well,Fleener has the potential to be a great receiver,can line up te or wr.I personally feel this was a great and very smart draft,surrounding Luck with tools to suceedGoing in some had Allen going ahead of Fleenor. When I saw Allen was available I knew we would have 2 TE's.....the two best TEs in the draft 2 and 3....I loved the call. My girlfriend said...everyone is going to think you are stupid. I said: Give them a couple of days to think about Arians's preference to use 2 TEs......and a man named Luck. Good point 28!!!

Allen can run routes catch ball plus he can block for the run
so lets say andrew luck plays for us for 20 years
