Any word on Addai/Addai SIGNED!

[scochatm]

Just hope he can stay healthy like said earlier in post last year he showed more ability like when he was a rookie when he has a hole he is awesome.

lolololol!

He actually just said "There were some good free agents that can actually rush the ball" and then mentioned reggie freakin bush...

Addai's usefulness isn't in his running. It's in his ability to pass block, pick up blocks on the fly, catch out of the backfield, and get good YAC.

Of course you have no idea what any of that means because your obviously going off of what you think you've learned in Madden... If you were half as smart as you think you are you would understand that it doesn't matter if we had Jim Brown (Google him) and Emmit Smith (Google him, too) in the backfield, no one's going to run for a ton of yards behind our line.

what up with you and the Madden talk all the time. lol

Yeah! Great News! I am glad Addai will still be a Colt!!!

[amff]

Ummm, why? He is about as bad a running back as there is. There were some good free agents that can actually rush the ball, Cedric Benson, Reggie Bush, Ricky Williams, Ronnie Brown but no the Colts stick with this guy, brilliant! The Colts never do anything to add talent to the team, just pickup guys when half the team is benched with a headache!

Alright there. Addai is a good back. He can block< he can run if there is hole for him, and he is good as a passing option. Now obviously u think we a RB that is gonna go and rush for 1500 + yrds this season but incase u haven't noticed this team is built around Peyton offensively speaking. So if Peyton wants him then thats what Polian and Irsay go after. That's how Collie ended up here. Peyton seen him perform at his WR camp and said "I want him when he enters the Draft" and wouldnt u know it here he is. Yes A big name back is great idea but most of them flop after they sign with another team for a ton of money. Just sayin.....

Great news! We get Peyton, Joe and a possible O-line too.

Really? ummmmm this is why

1) we are a pass first type of offense, so it only makes sense to have the best blocking back in football

2) He is also an extremely good safety valve for Peyton as well being very solid in the receiving game.

3) He is a PROVEN 1000 yard running back his rookie year. What happens are his rookie year and the Colts win the SB? Tarik Glenn leaves and the line was never the same.

4) Because of the new additions to the offensive line and the release of Ryan Diem (those 5 yd false start penalties also kill the running game) the running game will pick up no matter who is back there.

5) The Colts got Addai for the right price because there was some other talent available in the market. The Addai won't make nearly as much money (or shouldn't) as opposed to Bradshaw or Benson. We simply could not be able to afford the other running backs you mentioned because we still have to worry about re-signing the two Johnsons and maybe DeVan.

6)the Colts always do things to bring in talent to the team. It's called draft picks and Undrafted free agents. We have never been very active at all in free agency. But I like our results because it has brought in Mathis, Freeney, Manning, Bracket, Bethea, Harrison, and Wayne to name a few all WITHOUT free agency. They key to remember is that it's just not as exciting for the casual football fan because it doesn't make headlines.

Very well put buddy.
