Could Grigson make another big trade next season?

Wow. Those aren't holes. And even if I give you those positions (I don't) those would be 'upgrades'.

Sure they are.. If Bethea walks there will be a hole at safety..

People on here think we will release Toler.. If so another hole.

I'm pretty positive Angerer is gone and we need someone to play alongside Freeman..

Reggie is our best WR hands down but a ACL injury and his age is a huge concern plus he's entering the last year of his contract.. We need a proven WR to grow up Luck.. People want Rogers but he's still a huge ?

The defensive line nobody really knows what's going on there..

Ricky Jean hasn't lived up to his 22 million dollar contract.

Franklin hasn't done anything.

Maola is set to be a free agent..

Redding is aging.. Mathis too.

Who knows how Werner will develop.

I'm not sure we have enough in the cupboard to swing a big trade. At some point, you have to develop from the draft or the cap catches you way too fast

imo the draft picks take too long to develop. grigs has had good luck getting low priced high skill players from our farm system. which is the cfl

yeah. Forget the draft and just grab the wealth of talent in the cfl.

That's how you build a dynasty

Yeah, tell that to Anquan Bolden. :) He came out of UConn's 4/3 under Todd Orlando where he was not a press corner. Heck he didn't even have enough talent to play press in High School. He was a safety. He did however play the wide side of the field at UConn so he's talented. But he would be better as a zone corner.

I'm glad we have him but he's fortunate to be on the team. He plays well NOW in press because of coaching. But he sucked at it initially...otherwise he'd still be in New England instead of Kyle Arrington or down in Carolina.

Why does his high school position matter? He's a man press CB now, and darn good at it.

Nice avatar. Not.

    • I’m not a religious person, but since you’re an educator I think you’re doing Gods work!   In these crazy insane times we’re all living in you’re doing one of the toughest jobs on earth.  And you’re teaching perhaps the most difficult generation to deal with.     From a distance it feels like you’re being very unfair to you.  I’m hoping in time you’ll see yourself in a completely different light.    Someone highly thought of.  A leader in the community.  A protector of young minds.   I couldn’t admire a teacher more.  
    • You are too self-deprecating. You are one of the most respected and bright members here. You should never feel that you are failing. I'm sure your wife and children don't feel that way.  Indiana does not pay teachers what they deserve. But money is overrated. Having good morals and good character should be valued a lot more. JMO.
    • They make a heck of a lot more money than I do. Even those on the practice squad are making life changing money.    To be completely honest, as an educator I feel more like trash nowadays. One of those moments where I feel like I’m failing as a man, a husband, a father and a teacher. I would absolutely never consider an honest working NFL player as trash. 
    • Food for thought… Once again, you continue to be your own worst enemy.     The Colts overall TE room is loaded with young players most of whom have had very little playing time for a variety of reasons.   So if you want to say the room might not be ranked high, that’s fair.    But you don’t say that.  You call them “trash”.  Why you feel that’s appropriate is a mystery.   Whenever you try the internet tough guy approach it typically blows up on you.     No one is trash.     You ignore the last three years and the QB and HC carousel the Colts have dealt with.  All of which has impacted the Colts weapons, especially the TE’s.   Ballard has publicly talked about how promising he thinks his TE room might be.   Woods, Granson, Ogletree, Mallory and MAC.    Only MAC is questionable and that’s because the salary hasn’t matched expectations.  But the first four?   All are promising.   They’re just young and looking for opportunity.  But they are NOT trash.     There’s a difference.     
    • Some of the coaches?   That sounds plural to me.   To the best of my knowledge the focus in this community has only been on one coach who may not be maximizing the players the Colts have.   And that’s the defensive coordinator.  He’s been a hot topic of conversation.  But I’m not aware of any other coach being viewed in a negative light.
