Who got cut to make room for him? Please tell me Painter, please tell me Painter, please tell me Painter!!!!!!

As bad as I hate to say it Painter is probably safe since we need 2 QB's on the team. What if something should happen to Collins we would have nobody. Even with Painter he's a body on the field.

( I will end with that remark ) lol

Don't know what to make of this. It doesn't seem like there is room for another safety. Practice squad? I sure as heck hope it isn't because of an injury.

Never heard of the guy, although I have a draft guide which has him as the 7th best 2011 safety (Lefeged #5). He was released 8 days ago. It seems odd that he would be out there that long if he was "that" good.

I am amused by the fact that his Wikipedia page has already been updated to show him as a Colt. Crazy world. No idea why he would even have his own page, much less why someone would jump at the chance to update the information based on a rumor. Get a life (says the guy wandering around a Colts forum in mid-afternoon).

My guess would be that its an insurance policy at the depth of our safeties, since last year we had so many go down to injury, plus in packages that require a larger amount of db's out there, such as dollar and quarter coverages, he could be an extra cb position on the field

dude seinfeld'sawesome, but yea i seen the thread.

Yep, Seinfeld is awesome.

That 'Manning out for the season' rumor started from an Indy radio host, who got it from those nasty 'reliable sources'.

No substantiation.

I'm not going to worry about it until it happens, and if it happens, well, things happen.

Only official thing I've heard is that it will be continuously re-evaluated.

Deandre McDaniel was one of the the top UDFAs that I had identified that I hoped the Colts would sign. A little concerned about how good he might be, being that he's already been cut, but it's an intriguing signing.

I am hating all these "Manning out for the year" rumors. Sure hope they are wrong.

Speaking of Jerry Seinfeld, I'm seeing him in concert tomorrow. :-)

      *Update: AD Mitchell signed

      By stitches · Posted

      I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him.

      if he is healthy and they make the playoffs in spite of, say, Houston being the 1 or 2 seed in a loaded afc, you think Irsay would contemplate firing him? That would mean we took another step forward and AR proved he could stay healthy and play ball. I don’t see his seat being hot in that scenario at all. I see the organization being fired up with that and ready to hit the offseason hard to take the next step forward.
