Everyone Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Jim Irsay @JimIrsay 6mWe're all hurting for Vick BaL..Bradshaw,Brown and others must step up...Grig's gonna work hard to wheel n deal B4 trade deadline,let's roll I imagine they would wait a couple weeks to see how B-shaw, Brown and Williams do before pulling the trigger on another RB, unless they are trading for a different position.

methodicaleddie Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Just saw this on twitter. I don't know why he would announce Grigson's actions to the world like that, but okay sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unitaswestand Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Not to take anything away from Ballard who is a good young RB, but I think Bradshaw and Brown can do just fine. Bradshaw his a similar RB to Ballard. And Brown is completely different. Throw in Williams. Maybe sign Delone Carter if needed. But these guys are better than someone they can trade with.

1959Colts Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Perhaps Grigson could be wheeling and dealing for positions other than RB too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

House Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Whenever Irsay states the obvious, or says what fans hope is going on behind closed doors. People freak out. This phenomenon blows my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
methodicaleddie Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 did he give any details about anything, anything at all?He said that he was looking to trade now. There's no point in saying it on twitter just like there's no point in us going back and forth about this. Don't see why he wouldn't just keep his mouth shut and go about his business by letting Grigs do his thing. There isn't a need for stating the obvious.

And maybe he's not stating the obvious for everyone, but if he is for you. Guess what? Don't read it lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigQandTheManiac Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 they should just get someone from free agency they shouldn't trade away any more draft picks..IF that's what they are planning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean think about it, is a team going to be like "Oh no!! I don't want to trade with the Colts now because Irsay put on twitter Grigson wants to trade!!!" No. It doesn't hurt anything by putting it on twitter. He's just keeping the fans up to date and driving us all crazy speculating at the same time.

I don't follow them on twitter, but do they say what their next move is? I see this as the same as when Irsay told us about getting a "big time receiver". Why? Stop making us look desperate and just let Grigs do his thing without any added pressure of getting a deal done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see this as the same as when Irsay told us about getting a "big time receiver". Why? Stop making us look desperate and just let Grigs do his thing without any added pressure of getting a deal done.We just lost a RB. We are desperate. What other GM doesn't know that when we start shopping trades? Or what does it effect period for looking at FA's?Do you know if you don't go to Irsay's twitter you can't read his tweets? How many GMs do you think are sitting around waiting to pounce on Jim tweeting? They don't care. Only angry fans care. Some fans think it is their right solely to get to say whatever they want whenever they want, but not the owner. Lord no. Because he might tweet something everyone knows anyways, and that will cause mass destruction to the franchise. Because its a proven statistic that tweets=losses.

pgt_rob Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 We are cursed at RB for sure. Bradshaw and Brown will handle RB position and they will get injured too, only a matter of time sadly. And no, I'm not very optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad72 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Stepfan Taylor? If I am guessing, it will be a power back. We have 1 back with a little muscle in Bradshaw, and 2 shifty guys in Brown & Williams. We will go for a power back like Beanie Wells first, IMO. The other one I can think of is Anthony Dixon of 49ers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLILLINGTON10 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I would like to see Ben Tate brought in, if possible. I think he could start at RB for a lot of teams. I know this pretty close to impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we will get anyone that is #2 on the depth chart, a #3 like Anthony Dixon from the 49ers is a better possibility, IMO since he is behind Gore and Kendall Hunter and possibly LaMichael James too.
