Malakai432 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Yeah confused, perhaps there were other issues. I thought he looked pretty solid on the pre season, he had that sack and wrecked havoc on a few other plays. Wonder if there were some odd issues or perhaps someone else was chopped recently from another team that they might be eyeing???? Not sure just a thought.

Smitto Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 If it's common sense than your saying the colt's dont have any.So that is exactly what your saying.Man are you telling me that an organization is incapable of making mistakes? if you are then you need broaden your football horizon. The colts may have liked another tackle more than him and if thats the case its a bad move, the guy was pretty good in the time he played much better than moala id say you can never have enough talent at that position so yea bad move.

Balzer40 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 My linkWilson said Colts were unhappy that he missed time in preseason with an injury they didn't think was serious.

BIG FREAKIN DEAL. If the team was in your hands, we'd be lucky to win 4 games. Taj Smith made many more plays, and might get cut. omg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueCrew Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 You guy's need to cool it down a bit.As for my thoughts; I'd rather have an extra defensive lineman than a third QB, even with Peyton banged up. Harris will find a spot in a team's rotation, but curtis painter would working at mcdonalds if he was cut. (and I've been a painter supporter so don't try to play the 'painter-hater' card.)

ColtsLover4ever Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Exactly,it's not like they cut a guy who was in high demand around the league,the colts got him for cheap and we know why.I guess it's pointless to try and talk sense to people. The fans obviously know more than people who do it for a living. Chris Polian should retire, and the message board should collectively be the new GM. Yeah, that's the ticket.

It's about discussing what the team does and if you like it. There was posters like yourself on here when we drafted jerry hughes. People like you pulled out the whole "in BP we trust" line, and by the end of the year, BP himself said it was a mistake not to select roger saffold. Same thing with Joe Addai over MJD. BP selected Joe cause he thought MJD couldn't block, which is false. He's proven to be a very good blocker.My point: BP isn't perfect. Stop acting like he is. He could very easily be correct about harris, but he isn't so perfect that we can't discuss, if not criticize, one of the organization's roster moves.

People don't express their opinions. They talk as if what they are saying is absolute truth, and the front office of a mega-million dollar franchise has no idea what they are doing.We are completely in the right to dispute those comments.Yes because the front office never makes mistakes.

Their medical staff must have said he could go and Harris did not push it.Thankfully Nevis is looking like the real deal.No one said anywhere that they always make the right moves. Can you pull up that quote somewhere? Didn't think so. Furthermore, every single franchise makes bad moves, but it's almost always in hindsight that the quality of the decision can be determined. Overall, the Colts are in the top 5 for consistent intelligence.We also had an excess of DT's, and Nevis is catching on quickly. Which would you rather have? A talented DT who's young, has lots of promise, and is mega-disruptive? Or an old DT, with known injury issues, and is on the decline, but can still be a force.Option A is the smart move 100% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey878 Posted September 3, 2011 Author Share Posted September 3, 2011 I feel like its gotta be for a DT, CB, or S. maybe a G but i doubt it. Brandon Merriweather just got cut by the pats... thats something to think about for depth at S.Igor olshansky was also cut today by the cowboys. hes 6'5 315 and could play DT for us. So maybe thats a possibility as well. I doubt any of these will happen. just bouncing ideas around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
