I'd pick up Monte Ball over either of those two.

There is so much hype on him right now, Im surprised hes not the starter, but they must not feel like his running skills are better than Hillman's. Im sure hes a better blocker though, but probably not as dynamic as they had hoped.

Wayne with a great grab, Davis comes back with a PBU in the endzone in the Detroit drill

[Dustin]

@ColtsAuth_Kyle30s

Defense wins the first detroit drill, stopping Ballard up the middle on the final play.

[Dustin]

@Coltsfanwilson25s

Reggie Wayne vs. Vontae Davis is a pretty good battle. Reg makes great snag to prevent Davis INT, then Davis breaks up fade for Reg.

[PrincetonTiger]

Any news on who the new guy might be?

[Dustin]

@ColtsAuth_Kyle27s

Refs call a L. Sampson sideline catch out of bounds, Wayne goes to complain.

[Dustin]

‏@ColtsAuth_Kyle36s

2nd team gets the TD, roll out to the left by Hasselbeck, pass to Whalen in the endzone.

Linkenbach as the 2nd team right tackle today. Emmett Cleary the right guard.

 

 

Interesting.  Things had stagnated for a while on the OL.  Now I suppose Joe Gilbert is going to start moving some of these back-ups around to see what kind of versatility he's got there.  I think they really like Cleary, an he could be the next movable piece there...

[GoodLuck]

Does Harnish look better than Hassleback?

[Dustin]

@ColtsAuth_Kyle31s

2 pass interference penalties so far in the Detroit drills. One on Landry, one on D. Howell.

Not from what I'm reading.

[Superman]

this is why JH will be on the 53 man roster

Plus he was solid on special teams last year. Before he got hurt...

[Dustin]

@ColtsAuth_Kyle28s

Sambrano with a drop in the endzone, great throw by Harnish.

[House]

I cant stand when people hate on TO. You'd get more production out of him than DHB. Fact

Fiction.

[Dustin]

@ColtsAuth_Kyle3s

Wayne is still discussing Sampson's incompletion with the ref here.

[Dustin]

@andrewmishler37s

A grade one MCL sprain, from what I've read, usually requires about 3 weeks of rest. Grade two takes about 6-8 weeks. Hope for a G1 for DHB.

Seems like it. I was pulling for Ijalana, mainly because we really don't have a 4th tackle. Depending on what you think about Linkenbach, we might not have a 3rd tackle. If Cleary is working his way up the chart, that's a good thing. Still rooting for Ijalana, but that's sentimentality. I just want us to have some depth.

So is the oline basicall set?

Satele and McGlyn arent getting replaced?

AQ was better than both of them

not in the opinion of experts

[TKnight24]

Barring injury this week, the starting lineup should be

Reggie Wayne

TY Hilton

Lavon Brazill

Griff Whalen

?

For the bills game that should be the lineup cause DHB probably won't be playing. They'll probably let him wear his jersey and some shorts or sweatpants and just have him standing next to the WR coach

i doubt dhb plays at all in the preseason

Hopefully this helps Cleary make the 53.

Well, that's a chance for Lavon Brazill's 4 game replacement to make a statement then.

T.O  as a Colt    T.O was his own worst enemy , I can't imagine a worse Idea then bringing him into any locker room much less our Colts . And I'm not trying to hate on him he was a awesome reciever back in the day but today  he's worthless & a distraction that no team needs ..

[SteelCityColt]

Even with Luck at QB given your assessment of him so far during TC?

Opinion doesn't really count as fact btw.

[HtownColt]

@gmbremer: Jerrell Freeman (shoulder) and Larry Asante (AC joint) sat out Monday's practice. Greg Toler returned and fully participated. #ColtsCamp

[Coltswarriors]

Conflicting reports now on DHB. Now they're saying that his injury isn't serious.

[HtownColt]

Must be a grade 1 sprain then, which is typically 2-3 weeks

[HtownColt]

@injuryexpert: Hearing DHB knee injury is a Grade I+ MCL sprain. Not surgical, timeline depends on his response to treatment, strength of 2d stabilizers.

[HtownColt]

@mchappell51: Being reported #colts Darrius Heyward-Bey has Grade 1 sprain of left MCL. Team would not elaborate. Stressed it's "not serious.''

[SteelCityColt]

That's about 2-3 weeks depending on severity. Besides Mathis I remember Jeff Saturday suffering a MCL sprain and he came back one or two weeks later.

Not a medical professional by any means but having recently sprained my LCL I'd say a bit longer to be 100% especially for a WR. Took me over a month to get into proper rehab of motion and strength building and still have to wear a brace. I play as a wicket keeper (lot of squatting) so my knees get wrecked as it is.

Saying that DHB I'm sure is a better athlete than myself which should cut time.

Do you go out of your way to be epically wrong in everything you say?

 

 

Its just a opinion whether you or I agree with it or not which I did'nt  , It would be decent of you to explain why you believe his opinion is wrong .

 

Rather than use it for a reason to dog him ..

 

Just saying  we can't all be  football genius's  guru's of the message boards so we visit these boards to learn a lil somethin somethin from those that do .

 

Lets hear your pearls of wisdom .

Putting together some of your assessments of players... Is that you Chris Polian?

Fair point but to express opinion as "fact" will get some people's goat.

[Sova!]

He got kicked off an arena football team cuz his distractions and locker room presence outweighed his production (which was good). It's the intangibles that make him bad, he's a cancer to his own teams. Whoever signs him is doing it for attention and ticket sales

[Superman]

Yeah, with access to state of the art treatment/equipment, and round the clock professional attention. For something like this, you can probably cut the average recovery time in half for a top notch athlete.

I should mention too I aggravated the injury by trying to do too much on it too soon and ignoring the pain. With a medical team around him I'm sure that wont he an issue.

[Dark Superman]

Griff and Coby are looking sharp. This could be a huge year for the Stanford Alumini.
