Colts shift to Avril (merge)

[NDcolt]

Colts apparently letting Browns have Kruger & all in on Avril!!!  

[SIXTHOBJECT]

good... got to be happy with Grigs

[Smonroe]

That tells me all I need to know about Kruger. If Pags doesn't think he's worth the reported 8-9M then he must not be worth it.

Poor Browns, it's where good players go to disappear.

Well if Kruger only got 8 mil per season, hopefully we can get Avril for around 6 or 7 mil per. Plus Levitre got almost 8 mil per season so hopefully we can get Vasquez for around 6 mil per as well.

6 or 7? Try 10 or 11.

[BProland85]

6 or 7? Try 10 or 11.

Grigs wont pay that. Kruger was thought of as the top pass rusher in free agency especially since he had a good playoff run and winning the superbowl.

I doubt that very much. Kruger was widely considered the best OLBer on the market.

If Grigson wants him that's what he's going to pay. Avril was the top pass rusher on the market.

Avril's already turned down a $10 million a year contract from Detroit.

Yep, and he probably s-c-r-e-w-e-d himself.

[BProland85]

The market dictates what players get. Since Kruger was first to go at only 8 mil per season, that means that Avril will get around that or less.

[Dustin]

IDK There's a lot of team that could use help at either OLB or DE and he's the best on the market.

[Dustin]

Why? Avril can play both DE and OLB and is way more proven than Kruger. If anything, this raises his price tag.

"Hey that guy that only has 14 sacks just got $8 million a year"

Colts & Avril Close To Deal: The Indianapolis Colts are close to a deal with DE Cliff Avril. http://wp.me/pcQbV-31C

 

[TKnight24]

I read "Colts closed deal with Avril"

You can't get me excited like that MTC, apple juice is too valuable to be spilling

[Nobody]

In still * about losing the two best guards, we'd better not give him 12 million.

[Mameluc]

jim irsay just tweeted that grigs has a plan for multiple free agents

[Mameluc]

Jason La Canfora ‏@JasonLaCanfora

LB Stewart Bradley leaving his visit with the Colts to head to Denver

[Mameluc]

Jim Irsay ‏@JimIrsay

We will have some big announcements very soon!!!!!!!! We are THRILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HungarianColtsFan]

At least something.

 

Get prepared Andrew, You will need Your legs in 2013 again!!!

[Mameluc]

Daniel Jeremiah ‏@MoveTheSticks

Hearing Indy signed OT Gosder Cherilus

[Coltswarriors]

Didn't get either of the top two guards... disappointed. 

 

I want Avril though. Get him Grigs!

[ColtsUrUs]

Daniel Jeremiah ‏@MoveTheSticks

Hearing Indy signed OT Gosder Cherilus

WHO???

[Mameluc]

George Bremer ‏@gmbremer

Here we go. Reports are #Colts sign OT Gosder Cherilus, are close with OLB Clif Avril and S Laron Landry.

[coltsfanatic24]

In still ticked about losing the two best guards, we'd better not give him 12 million.

We can draft Cooper but we needed a RT more. We just signed Cherilus who was the best RT in free agency.

[Stoney]

did we seriously lose both levitre and vasquez and looks like long too? someone tell me something good before i pickup my computer screen and slam it into the ground over and over

[theanarchist]

We just got one of the best RT's in football and his name is not very recognizable but he's real good

WHO???

[Andy]

I'd barely give Avril half of 12M. He's worth 7M at most.

How can you say we need a RT more than OG? Cooper isn't a power blocker.

[Superman]

Just to put a positive spin on the possibility of Avril coming to the Colts, if we get better at nose tackle, five tech end, and inside linebacker, then Avril and Mathis become focused pass rushers and can wreak havoc. Could be a dangerous duo.

Exactly. Just like the old #98 & #93 duo

Says who??

[Superman]

We needed both. Now we only need one.

[Dan]

If we sign Avril for the rumoured 13, we'll be paying him about as much as the combined price of Levitre and Vasquez. I don't know how to express my disappointment in this.

Not unless they want to trade up.

Where did you hear 13 mil. Keep in mind they said Kruger would get 12 and he only got 8. No way we or anybody else pays 13 for Avril.

Irrelevant now, if Walden is to be starter then we're not getting Avril.

Who said walden was guaranteed to be a starter?
