BProland85 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 First, in free agency, we sign WR Mike Wallace to a deal worth about 5 years, 45 mil. I think thats a fair and good deal for us. We now have a #1 WR post Reggie Wayne. Luck now has some tremendous weapons in WRs Wayne, Wallace, Hilton, and Avery, as well as TEs Fleener and Allen. We may also bring in some depth at DL like a veteran NT to share time with Josh Chapman. Do that and we have a very good free agency period.1st round (9th overall)-Indy trades down into the late teens and gets a 2nd rounder back in the deal.-Indy selects OG Chance Warmack, Alabama -Great pick and value for the OL to hopefully finally give us a running game! Luck also loves this pick getting a big nasty to protect him.2nd(via trade)- SS Kenny Vaccaro, Texas (Gives us a very good safety tandem in Bethea/Vaccaro. Zbikowski is simply a backup and is better at FS, so we need a SS for the future, and this pick makes our secondary that much better.)3rd round- RT Alex Hurst, LSU (Gives us a very good RT and a good combo of OTs. If Ijalana can come back from his injury to be our other OG opposite Warmack, LOOK OUT for this OL! Even keeping Reitz will give us a very good backup at either OG or RT. I really like our OL now. )4th round- CB Desmond Trufant, Washington (You can never have enough cornerbacks. Could easily be our nickel starter. )Let me know what ya think!

Nobody Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Hope we do more in FA than just two guys. We should get more depth at DL and OL. Like the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I like that draft alot although I wouldn't draft a Safety that high this year because its not big of a need compared to others such as OLB or DE or RT , I like Vaccaro though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boiler_Colt Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Going to need a pass rusher to offset the loss of Freeney and probably another starting caliber guard in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOTT Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 i would pass on wallace and sign a quality OL in free agency Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Peytonator Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I want 2 or 3 STARTING Olinemen brought in from Free Agency. After that maybe a run stopper on the Dline and another press corner if we can afford them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKCOLT17 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 wallace wants alot of money like calvin money which is stupid cause he aint that great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steagles Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Wallace wont get Calvin money. However, he WILL be overpayed. Some team will be desparate (like Miami, for example) and will outbid everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haseo15 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Wallace is kind of stuck as well, if steelers really want him they can franchise tag him next year and he can't do anything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funktacious2 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Yeah, I'd rather out scout teams than over pay a receiver like Williams. I like him, but we get some o-line starters, OLB, safety, etcc... in this free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltsfanatic24 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 we don't need rookies to protect luck, they take a couple of years to develop we can get veteran o-line in free agency.the players ive been impressed with the most is star loutulelei nt utah, keenan allen wr cal, and eric reid ss lsu. star reminds me of ngata, very physical and athletic for a big guy. keenan has the talent, size and speed to be the next andre johnson and many scouts have compared eric reid to sean taylor. i'll be satisfied if we can get any of these 3 guys.

NewColtsFan Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I think Mike Wallace is really good. I'm just not sure he's a legit #1. And I hate paying someone as if they're a #1 when they're not. In short, I really, really dislike overpaying!I know he wants serious money. I was not aware the Steelers offered him 5/50. If that's true, then I'm guessing he's not coming here for 5/45. Hey, call me crazy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I will take a rookie RG or RT who is projected to be a stud RG and RT over some journeyman O Lineman whos got the experience but not the talent, experience isn't everything if you know how to get the job done but dont have the physical tools to do the job then there is no point in signing them, we have Vet O Linemen that Im sure can teach (even if most of them cant do whats asked of them themselves) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coltivated Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 i believe welker in slot with wayne and avery. If avery dosnt pan out maybe bowe in kc. Id rather barrett jones over warmack for the line but we will want jarvis jones, mingo, montgomery, star at end or maybe ried or best saftey to sure up back end.

Moncrief Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Were a rebuilding team. Why would we sign Welker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coltivated Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Faith and development I believe we could contend as early as next year welker hands down best wide receiver consistently catching balls within ten yards. Everything I have ever watched on luck shows him exceling in quick pitch and catch sinarios with yac stats. Potentially very great combination in my opinion..
