Fair enough mistake on our part but I still don't give us giving up our first rounder for him namely because a guy like him would really blow the cap (he seems to want big money and rightfully so).  He is also pretty much another version of Hilton and Brazil and I don't think the Colts would go into the draft minus both their first and second round picks but stranger things have happened but I have a feeling Cruz's would be cap figure will make it a no go for us. 

He would be a great Colt but not for a 1st rounder and a mega cap hit

Well maybe they are going after Cruz.  I just don't see it but I am clearly not a NFL GM.  That's a big gamble though to give up both your first and second picks in the same draft.  However if they turn them into Cruz and Davis it would be hard to argue that the Colts would have gotten two better players out of the draft with those picks.

BTW, for everone talking about Irsay saying we're close to the cap, it's important to realize that he said that we're "past the cap cash wise" i.e. cash over the cap.

 

Cash over the cap is when you've spent more physical dollars in a year than the salary cap.  While bonuses are amortized over multiple years, Cash-over-cap counts all signing bonuses paid out just in the single year (but not previous years).  Since we're paying out a bunch of signing bonuses this year, it's no surprise we're cash-over-cap.

How about one of these;

Eric Decker

Mike Williams TB

Miles Austin

Hakeem Nicks

Kenny Britt

I'd take RG3's Baylor buddy over Britt. Dez Bryant over Austin (Dez could change his attitude & behavior up here in Indy). And no way is Peyton letting Decker go lol

#Colts I mentioned last week that a trade was imminent for the #Colts, then I backed off. Now I am telling you that the Salsa may be on Indy

So it sounds like this trade IS going to happen. Floyd makes sense, especially since he's still under his rookie contract.

 

I don't understand Floyd...

 

They just released Doucet, and they really have no no.2 Plus I doubt they would give up on him a year after they drafted him in the first round.

    • The Pacers should draft Lebrons kid if he is available in the second round.  
    • Cardinals have won 4 in a row over the Giants and Braves.  i am now hoping to win the series against Atlanta tonight and go for a sweep tomorrow.   Seems unlikely but you never know. Gotta face maybe the Braves best starter tonight.  Lopez with a 1.57 ERA.  It sure would be nice to win at least 1 against the Braves in the next 2 nights.  After that series they have 4 against the Reds and 3 against the Pirates so we can expect them to beat each other up.    
    • I have reactivated the league.  Who's back in this year? @Lucky Colts Fan @buccolts @WarGhost21 @Yoshinator @VikingsFanInChennai @crazycolt1 @IndyD4U    Going to get this started early, lock in the dates. I will correct my mistakes, I will be clear on when the draft is so no-one is confused and no spousal trades. Are there any other variations for rules anyone cares to put up to a vote this year?   Thanks for being a part of this league and if anyone is reading this who isn't a part of it now, let me know if you're interested in joining so I can offer any open spots.
    • I haven’t seen the comps you speak of.     I know most projections seem high.  Football outsiders does an annual projection either just before or just after the draft.  I think Liatu was projected with the most sacks and the number was basically 6 sacks.      I suspect Liatu was picked in part because he’s an inch taller and roughly 20 pounds heavier than Turner.  And I suspect the new DL coach, who I love, had strong input to the selection.
