I think if the Colts can get this guy he would be an upgrade on the defensive front..

He doesn't miss a lot of games, he only missed one game in the past 5 years.

He's disruptive and has the ability to get to the ball carrier or quarterback.

Only negative thing about him is that he's 30.

Would probably thrive playing alongside guys like Mathis or Chapman,

I agree. I think he will bring a toughness that the middle of this line needs. And like I mentioned earlier playing alongside guys like Mathis,Redding and Chapman will only help.

I am not a big 'salary' expert...more X's and O's...:)  How much are the good players gonna go for this year?  Other than QB of course....

30 isn't too old for a 3-4 year deal if you have the right guy with the right motivation at the right price.

 

Cory Redding turned 32 during his first season with us, was signed on a 3 year deal, and has been very effective on field and in the locker room.

If Orakpo can be 'had....'  Love him....does he want to win, and establish himself again?  Werner and Walden will stay IMO however.

 

Oh, no doubt but having that 4th OLB that can be a difference maker will give more options for our pass rush. Your coverage can only hold up so much vs elite QBs. If our DE play more containment roles, pass rush comes primarily from our OLBs and outside Mathis, everyone else can be handled 1-on-1.

I agree and I love Orakpo...especially in the Geico commercials.  :)  So easy a Linebacker can do it.

    • Hey Everyone,   So, I just caught wind of Goodson's apology letter after dropping that short pass from Minshew against the Texans last season. Here's my humorous take on the situation:   "Dear Fans, Coaches, Teammates, and Supporters,   I'm writing to apologize for buttering up that short pass in the most critical moment against the Texans. Look, I know I'm the backup running back, but hey, I'm usually good for catching those short throws - emphasis on 'usually'. My bad for turning a routine play into a blooper reel moment.   To my teammates, sorry for making you wonder if I was secretly playing for the other team. Next time, I'll practice catching more than just footballs thrown by the water boy.   To the coaches, maybe let's reconsider throwing short passes to guys who have hands that are more slippery than a greased pig at the county fair. Just a suggestion.   And to the fans, thanks for turning my drop into a meme. I promise to work on my catching skills so I can make highlights, not lowlights, next season.   Sincerely, Goodson (aka the running back who should stick to running)"   Okay, maybe I exaggerated a bit, but you get the gist. Let's hope Goodson has been hitting those catching drills hard this offseason!
    • I remember looking for highlights of TJ after we drafted him.  I kept finding videos of him following OJ Howard into the endzone.  Not sure if Howard was his responsibility, but it didn't paint a promising picture.
    • Ballard,   So, yeah, about that whole "bust" thing—I guess the cat's out of the bag. Turns out, I'm more of a popcorn fart than a thunderclap. My bad.   When you drafted me, I thought I was gonna be the Colts' next big thing. You know, sacking quarterbacks, making highlight reels, maybe even getting my face on a cereal box someday. But instead, I've been about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.   I've watched the tapes, Coach. I've seen the memes. They're comparing my NFL career to a hangover—starts off with high hopes, and ends with regret and a lot of Gatorade. And honestly, I get it. I'm like that guest who shows up to a party uninvited and ends up eating all the chips.   So, here's my mea culpa. I apologize for not living up to the hype. For every missed tackle, every missed sack, and that one time I accidentally tackled our own quarterback in practice (sorry, Philip). I'm like the guy who brings a guitar to a party and insists on playing Wonderwall—I'm annoying and not nearly as good as I think I am.   But hey, I'm not giving up. I'm hitting the gym, studying film (mostly bloopers at this point), and practicing my touchdown dance for when pigs finally fly. I promise to work harder and maybe, just maybe, I'll redeem myself and earn my place in the Hall of Mediocrity.   Thanks for believing in me, and letting me live my dream for 4 years straight whilst simultaneously producing nothing for your team. I'll make you proud yet, even if it's just by being the team's MVP of Bust Central, and we aren't talking bronze heads.    Sincerely, Ben "The Bust" Banagous (Not sponsored by Gatorade yet, but a guy can dream)
    • if you scream MODS! in anything I write,  I might get in trouble. hahaha
    • MODS!  This should be enough to force you to bring back the laughing emoji option!   Funny stuff!
