Recommended Posts

@JimIrsay: Off/Def Lineman,so many 6-3 to 6-7..320-365 lbs/Big,Physical and Nasty! Speaking of size/strength..GM Grig's just might sign "The Icelander"

Who is the Icelander?

@JimIrsay: This 6-9..419 lbs..."The Icelander"...for $200 n Colts T-shirt n Cap...who is this 23 year old Monster Strong Man? 1 guess only by 3pm EST

@JimIrsay: Abby's hatpick for ties....I like him at Nose/3-4 Def...if he can demonstrate enough knee bend at 6-9

dont we have enough NTs

We could always use another one....don't we have 77 already? :)  

 

If we don't sign him....the Texans or Patriots will after this Cryptic tweet..... :lol:

 

Can this man play in Lucas oil after playing in the snow all of these Icelandic years?

Can he blast through the line take out the kicker as hes trying his field goal?In all honesty does he have the agility to play?And if so will his knees be a prime target?

He is 6' 9"  Knees are toast......He would be a great NT to have on punts and kicks...if he can jump at all....still at that height could bat a low long line drive attempt.

My point Brother you know as well as I do this would be a short/tall experiment pardon the pun :spit:

Chapman is the only good young NT we have and he's coming off of an injury.  I don't think Mckinney will make the roster if we sign this guy.

 

Lol.  This guy's skills MAY translate.  They might not.  The video posted above interviewing him, it doesn't seem like all the marbles are in the shed.  

 

McKinney provides solid depth.  This guy could be a prospect, but who knows.  I'd like to think we have other options of players to cut before McKinney, but I could be wrong.

It'd be interesting to see what he could do... but I know nothing about how Strongman is governed... any chance this dude is on something?

I think they have pretty stringent drug testing. So not much chance he on anything, I wouldn't think.

    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • 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.
