No joke, not to mention Vasquez went to Denver of all places, if you are a line man & you have John Elway whooing you about protecting and making a SB run with 18, not really hard to see why hes a Bronco now...

Every one just assumes we "lost" him .... why does no one consider the possibility we got who we wanted, and Vasquez was not our first choice? Just because the majority of the board anointed Vasquez as the best option for us at guard does not mean the Colts had him rated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckynumber12 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Are we looking in FA for a veteran Outside receiver and a decent back up QB whats the latest on that ? i wouldn't mind cassel as backup and as wide receiver kevin walter ? or moss he'd be cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DL, WR, I doubt QB. We can pick up a backup if they want one for cheap or grab late in the draft or UDFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valpo2004 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Colts had no chance with Vasquez once John Elway gave his agent a call. The man wanted to play for a Super Bowl, that they are the biggest most obvious contenders that where in the market for a guard. He could have easily gotten more money then he did. He gave them a "I want to play for a SB" discount. That's what happened. And while we are good and I think we are improving. . . we are still pretty far behind Denver.

We could have gotten Vasquez if we wanted him. We are behind Denver ... but they have to win now, because they only have about a 2 year window before they are no longer contenders and shopping for a QB. Which will be just about the time we are back to being one of the dominant contenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which will be just about the time we are back to being one of the dominant contenders. I don't think so, the guy took way too big of a discount to say that we could have gotten him without way overspending for him. Vasquez could have gotten 7 or 8 million easily. He took 5.8 million. Denver isn't going to be shopping for a QB as much as you might think. The year they signed Peyton they also drafted Brock Osweiler in the 2nd round. He's Peyton's backup now and is likely their QB of the future. It's hard to gauge how good he really is though because he's only thrown 4 passes in garbage time. On those passes he was 2 - 4 for 12 yards. But that having been said, I agree that they are only major contenders while Peyton is still there. But they do have his replacement in the wings.

I definitely think he could have gotten more money. Plus take into account that he signed a 4 year contract and, if I'm not mistaken, there are 4 years remaining on Peyton's contract. Could be coincidence...or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck_Is_Skilled Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Peyton signed a 3 yr deal. so he has 2 years left. Yeah, Denver is in serious win now mode. They honestly don't have much of a future at QB after Peyton.The Colts on the other hand are playing with house money. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now don't get me wrong, I know that contracts can be changed, restructured, voided with correct terms, etc etc...just saying the actual contract was for 5 years.
