TKnight24 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 B- . DHB had no impact on this grade. Didn't wanna bring the team down for one bad signing.Waiting for the draft now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbaron04 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 We better than texans I can say that if u ask how, all the addition can't be worse than the guys they replacing u know the names so we improved as the season got longer we got stronger with more exp ,the texans have already peaked and gotten weaker , the texans will no longer be able to use the zone cut no more which gave us alot of trouble with the cut backs ...

Colts_Fan12 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I give us a pretty good grade we filled many holes with better players and without giving contracts like Wallace and Kruger the draft will only make us better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatMcAfeeFan Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I say a solid B+. If Grigs works his draft magic again then I say this gets bumped up to an A- or even and A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coltsfanatic24 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 B+ if we can get Rhodes or Ogletree then i would give it a A+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Kirk Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 IMO you have to wait and see what plays out on the field,but on paper we are very improved,and I expect a lot of this to carry over to the field,i rate it in the B+ range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colts_Fan12 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 walden's contract. we made our new RT the highest paid RT in the league. toler got 5 mil a year for one year of production. francois got over 5 mil and barely startedWalden was one of the best at stopping the run for OLB he was like 7th and his contract isnt much guaranteed if it dont work we can cut him not be hurt much at all our RT was one of the better ones in the league luck needs protection RJF didn't start cause he played behind amazing players in SF he is good and many teams wanted him he was also good when he got time to play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colts_Fan12 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 agreedYep many fans are upset with wat we have done I don't really get it we got better at all positions and the contracts aren't cap crippling either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methodicaleddie Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I'll be waiting to answer this in December. Way too soon to grade them right now. For all we know Walden might be a stud with us (I'm wishfully thinking here though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincetonTiger Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share Posted April 2, 2013 Here is my reasoning for an A- grade:Every signing fills a specific that carried over from last year every signing has something to prove Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLILLINGTON10 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 if the grade is on a bell curve then i give us a B to B+ we are one of the few teams that got better (because we had money to play with). yet i think the whole whooper or lack of whooper brings us down. no wow factor in FA coupled with Denver being the A+ winner in this years. still like our moves and i think we made our playoff teams a real contender in our division maybe even contender for a SB.

Superman Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 while the contracts are outrageous, we did get 8 new starters I don't think the contracts are outrageous. Some of them are a little bigger than I expected, so I get that. But I like your approach here: we filled needs, added starters, and made the team better. Like the contracts or not, and even if you liked other players better, we checked off a lot of boxes over the past three weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slick_Rick Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I gave a B. I felt like we had a few good signings, but there are many question marks. A few of the players we shelled out for have injury or production issues (Walden, Cherilus, Landry) I think every player we got can improve. So, perhaps, this is going to make us much better, but for now, I can't say that we are Super Bowl favorites or even AFC favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
