The fact that he still hasn't done this makes me think he's still working on something.
Agree --- something is up

i doubt we would even see the part in parenthesis.

We should have taken Landon Collins. It was a bad pick then and it's a terrible pick now.
yea, when you're short (dorsett 5"10"), you have to have all-pro qualities in many areas.....speed is only one component, routes, separation, hands, instincts, just an overall multi-tool player w/smarts. This year will be big for him, this is the tell-all year imo. in addition, he must stay healthy.......easier said than done on this injury plagued team.

(Remember: Running a really good offense hurts your score—blowouts don't leave a lot of room to be clutch.)
hmmmm, at times our offense fell short of "really good", so I surmise that the #3 ranking is legit

The bar is so, so very low ... 8-8. So I would surmise that based on this low low bar, then expectation HAS to be for a winning record. Ergo, if Pags is retained, but the team regresses below 8-8 next year, then the staff will very likely be given their walking papers. I would actually say that if they do not have a winning record and make the playoffs, the staff will be let go.
For the record, the bar heading into next year is WAY higher than that infamous 2011 season. I mean, as bad as the Colts were in 2016, they were better than half the teams in the league, including trouncing GB, who are an NFC Champoinship participant.
Jim Irsay does not have a low bar, make no mistake. He has self-inflicted wounds that he is attempting to heal.

It definitely doesn't tell the whole story. But in this instance, it kind of does.
Because this defense sucks.
maybe we use the first pick on D, then get some o-line help in the draft and FA... but many draft picks will be D, especially if some can't be re-signed. So, what Linebacker or D-end do we take? best available? Foster would be great but needs to improve pass-coverage skills so they say.

Think about how good we'll be next year though. We might even crack the top 30.
Build it and they will come

In other news, Cowherd just said, "Ryan Grigson is not a popular guy in Indianapolis right now, if you get a call from Grigson's PR person, hang up" .... a follow-up to the convo he had with Kravitz, who said that Grigson hired a PR firm to improve his image.

You could say that. Now I thinking more in the line of Kyle Shanahan as HC, but with his father Mike hired as an HC assistant/mentor to council his son (if he wish) the first couple of years. Whatever setup those two would like. Might not be that crazy.
It's not out of the question. Based on the silence coming out of headquarters, someone is probably still brewing.

I feel sorry for Werner. He seemed like a really nice guy and team player. He just couldn't adjust to the NFL.
sounds like someone else in the Colts news

Like who??
it was a pipe-dream... the "coached in the last three years" goes bye-bye real quick (that has to be extended back in time farther),,,,then looking at what Irsay would even consider, and they're locked up for multiple year contracts and one example has a losing record in PO's (arians for example... locked up till 2018 and playoffs 1-2 but has overall winning record)..... can't give up draft picks so that screws us farther into the ground. So, since that was a failure at best, what do you think Irsay would consider?

not sure what this means but Josh McDaniels bowed out of the 49ers position.

good OC, not proven as a HC (sucked at Denver) not unlike Pagano when he came into the league....just don't think we can take the chance. must get a HC in the NFL with a winning record and winning playoffs record that coached within the last 3 years.

I still don't get how Irsay failed to nab Gruden. Manning feels he isn't ready? Fine, then give Gruden a blank check to be GM and coach. He would have been a monumental upgrade over Grigano. The whole situation is just depressing.
With someone as high profile as he is, it's going to come down to control of certain aspects of the team. Probably a major sticking point. Just speculation but you can imagine the reigns that Jon Gruden would demand much less the uber-salary. Turning down Andrew Luck for his prime-time years, of which I would estimate there are about 5-7 left, might, and I say MIGHT indicate that above said "control" was not expansive enough for Gruden's taste and Irsay would not acquiesce. It's a shame that the two could not get the give-and-take satisfactorily ironed out.
