    • As to the legit stat,  you took a very very small sample (about 15 percent of the season) and based on that one stat you extrapolated it into a season long projection.  Who does that?  It’s why someone came up with the expression of “Lies,  Damn Lies, and Statistics.”      And as I stated, it’s your format that trapped you.   Only three categories.   If you had allowed for more, like “above average”, then you wouldn’t have painted yourself into a corner.  You stated the line isn’t as good as it was in 18 and 19,  so you listed them as average.  As I noted to John Hammonds,  the line is ranked top-10 by everyone who ranks lines:  PFF, ESPN, and NFL.Com.    They can still be top-10 even if they’re not as dominant as 18 and 19.   And top-10 isn’t average in any NFL universe.    Sorry, not trying to be harsh with you.   I appreciate the effort you took to create something fun for all of us.  I just think you over-thought this.
    • They liked him well enough to visit with him multiple times and then make him a priority free agent after the draft.    He will have to perform well to unseat the two draftees for a roster spot BUT this team doesn’t usually make roster choices purely based on draft position. 
    • This shores up an obvious weakness for the defense last year and will prove to be an extremely good signing in the short and long term!
    • Sorry, JH, there’s almost nothing I agree with.   The OL may not be top-5 but still top-10.    And top-10 is fine.    Your first sentence basically was they’re not top-5, therefore they’re average is just an opinion.   And it’s not supported by anything.    The Colts OL is top-10 by everyone who ranks them.     And the concept of guys trending down or not being what they used to be isn’t the issue.   It’s what are they today.   What are they this season, not in the long term, what are they this year.      Kelly just had one of his best years.  Nelson had a good year, ranked 11th overall by PFF.   Smith also graded well.   And even Fries graded out in the top 40 percent of ALL guards.  Overall the line is top-10.    You and I often see things the same way.  Just not this time.  
    • I understand his frustration, but unfortunately this isnt the same oline that was dominate in their heyday
