Instead of trying to decipher this madness lets just talk about our top three choices out of the bunch that make sense.

 

I'll start:

 

Victor Cruz - Although new info says he is not the guy... he still very well could be. This move is simple and complex at the same time... the rules are laid out and the sides have to hash it out. It would take our 1st and a big contract to pry him away.

 

Jeremy Maclin - He is in a contract year and has ties to Grigson. I consider him to be very under-utilized given Philly's current state of operations the past couple of seasons. Bringing him in could jump start his young career to work with a talented young QB.

 

Stevie Johnson - Recently signed a new contract with the Bills but, those big wigs are G-O-N-E. He is young(26) and he is tall(6'2''). His contract would fit with the cap situation we are facing AND I think it would allow us to have room for draft signings. His contract was for 5 years, 36.25 million dollars, just over 7 million a year with a bit under 20 million guaranteed.

 

Larry Fitzgerald - I would love to see it happen but, even I have to face the facts... this would be a monstrous undertaking and just beyond the realm of believably. I have no reason to think he is going anywhere unless he were involved in a crazy 3-way trade.

The Sack Pack Walk On

Whatever happens, whenever it happens... This is how I can see it going down since all the owners are in Arizona.

 

Everyone is sitting around a GIANT circle table, kind of like King Arthurs round table. All of a sudden Jim gets a text, he looks down at his phone and it's from Grigs. The text message reads, "We brought him down alot, and he really wants to play for us, we need to lock down this offer NOW." Irsay stands up and excuses himself from the table from a minute to step out into the hallway. He keys in the appropriate speed dial number for his up and coming young General Manager. "Do It," he says in a barely audible voice, just loud enough for the person on the other end of the line to hear him. Irsay slips back into his chair, careful not to make alot of noise. He glances, ever so slightly at the owner who's receiver he just basically stole at such a cheap price. He lets out a heavy sigh and grins letting his mind wander from the boring rule talk, something about runningbacks and lowering the heads. It's a good day to be a Colts fan, It's a good day to be Jim.

      *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.
