Phil Wilson of the Indianapolis Star tweets that Anthony Castonzo, Ryan Diem, Drake Nevis, Kevin Thomas,Mike Tepper, Kerry Collins, and Peyton Manning are OUT.( UPDATE CONFIRMED BY NFL NETWORK )

Jeff Linkenbach will start at left tackle while newly signed linemen Quinn Ojinnaka will start at right.

This means that all top three picks for the Indianapolis Colts in the 2011 NFL Draft will not play today.

In addition, the third round pick in 2010 (Thomas) is a healthy scratch for the second straight week. Seriously, a third round pick can't beat out the ''immortal' Stevie Brown or Terrence Johnson?

Today's starting right tackle, Quinn Ojinnaka, was signed just last week.

Tepper, who was signed off the practice squad last week, is out for unknown reasons at this time

Thats just great. :sarcasm:

I thought that Nevis had come back after getting dinged up, and that it wasn't a big deal. To not even dress isn't good.

I wonder if Tepper is hurt, or if they just have more confidence in the new guy. This thought is probably going to be smacked down, but everything considered you wonder if it might not be better to leave Link on the right so that only one position is weakened (albeit significantly), and use TEs/RBs to shore up the left. Poor Curtis.

Once again Phil sounds like he had lunch with BBS. I'm not sure why he can't point out his concerns without raising everyone's blood pressure.

This was all Phill wrote, rest from stampede blue

rotfl That makes a lot more sense. I just woke up, and apparently the legend at the top of the screen didn't even register in my brain.

I think I'm going meander off and have some breakfast before starting the (DVRed) pregame show/game.

Thanks for clarifying that.

      Update: Charges against Drew Ogletree dismissed with prejudice (merge)

      By Superman · Posted

      The roster page has now been updated, Ogletree is no longer listed as on the exempt list. So my bad, Holder was right.    Good news.

      Ballard pre-draft presser

      Was that the only good receiver taken in that draft? And did they give up multiple picks?

      Ballard pre-draft presser

      By Superman · Posted

      Yeah, I have no beef with MHJ as a prospect (I think some are pumping him up a little too much, and there's some name recognition probably influencing the way he's talked about). It would be awesome to have him on the Colts. But just like every other draft prospect in history, the possibility exists that he will not live up to the pre-draft expectations.    But during the pre-draft process, fans and media start falling in love with players. Terms like "generational talent," "future superstar," etc., start getting thrown around. And now we're talking about a prospect as if he's a lock for the HOF before he's even played a game in the NFL. That's fine, it's fun, we all do it. But that's different from actually scouting, setting a board, and making decisions for the team.   Each of us can point to a previous prospect that we loved and raved about and had them fitted for a gold jacket, but who bounced out of the league within 3-4 years. And the same is probably true for NFL scouts and decision makers. Which is why Ballard's comment today -- there is no such thing as a perfect prospect -- is so important to remember. I'm not against the team identifying a guy they really want and going up to get him, but I hope they're not just doing it with stars in their eyes.

      Would Cincy have made the SB without taking Chase at #5. I got the answer, and it is easy, it is a FAT NO. They would have never got by KC as great as Burrow is. Giving up next years 1st round pick isn't the end of the world to land a generational WR. We still have picks in rounds 2-7 if we did that.

      Isaiah Rodgers to the Eagles (Still Suspended)

      By w87r · Posted

      Definitely was, but essentially all of them received the same punishment initially.     Just thought it was curious, especially right before the draft. Has to put the CB spot for the Eagles in limbo.     Been wondering if Jontay Porter's NBA lifetime ban had any play in the decision.   Rodgers did bet on his own team.
