Housing? Huh?

[The Peytonator]

I don't know what a housing cooperative is but I hope Grigson doesn't give up too much for it.

[1959Colts]

Sorry.

Ill try to find the correct link

[TKnight24]

So let's say I do want to buy that 100,000 dollar home the page is referring to......

Is that possible with a credit score of 0?

[Dustin]

Nope.

Well I mean...there isn't anything in that score to indicate you WOULDN'T pay the mortgage...

[COLTS449]

Please tell me this isn't true.

[Jules]

It's that time of year!

[1959Colts]

Here is the link. Again I'm sorry for the mixup

[Dustin]

That's speculation.

Hey the Colts have a lot of cap space and a need at wr. Maybe they want Jackson != Colts interested in trading for Jackson

Where does it say the colts are interested?

[Ryan Pelley]

Lol, that would be so awful.

[Dark Superman]

Jackson and Hilton are pretty much the same type of WR..

We need a big possession guy..

[weslo1812]

I don't expect anything to happen. Eagles are gonna ask a lot for him. Its Just chatter

[Bluefire4]

It's a rumor. It's probably just speculation due to Grigson's history with the Eagles. We already have TY...

[The Peytonator]

Well I'm glad it doesn't say that WE are actually interested in him. 

 

Essentially we'd be giving up a draft pick for a TY Hilton type of player, with a crappy attitude and an over inflated contract.

[1959Colts]

Sure, the title of the piece itself even says it's a "rumor"

But at this point in free agency,.. Isn't everything basically a rumor?

[Balzer40]

This can't be true. It's far to dumb to even take seriously.

[PeterBowman]

This can't be true. It's far to dumb to even take seriously.

I agree, but hey, it's the offseason and it's nice to just be talking football right now

There's no rumor here. It's speculation.

[NewColtsFan]

I don't see us trading for DeSean Jackson.

 

Why?

 

Because we already have DeSean Jackson on our roster -- at least, a poor man's version of him.

 

His name is T.Y. Hilton.

 

He's not quite as good....  but he's much more affordable....   and much better in the locker-room.

 

Plus....   I don't see a reason for the Colts to pay full price.    And that's what the Eagles would want.    Full price.   The Eagles, and Chip Kelly, value speed at every position and that's what DS gives them. 

 

I don't see this happening...........   doesn't add up.

[Mameluc]

dont see it happening

[Devildog]

Zzzzzzz!

[1yrdandacloudofdust]

Hakeem Nicks. No trade required. Lets do it

[trueblueblood]

Hakeem Nicks. No trade required. Lets do it

 

i agree. he's exactly the type of receiver we need. big, physical, great hands, plays with an attitude. i'd love to see him on the colts.

[Jason_]

It's a rumor. It's probably just speculation due to Grigson's history with the Eagles. We already have TY...

 

Yep...the only 2 teams they mentioned were Colts (because of Grigson) and Chiefs (because of Reid).  It was nothing but pure speculation from the author.

I agree with your overall point.  But, I don't think there is enough difference between TY and DJ to even classify TY as a poor mans DJ.  I think by the end of next season there could be a legitimate debate on who is better.

 

-- So back to the topic I agree NO to Desean Jackson ...we do not need 2 of the same players.

[1959Colts]

I wouldn't be surprised if Grigson did do it.

[bap1331]

I don't trust anything until Adam schefter confirms it...

Maybe Jason la confora but I'm not hearing anything about how close this Vontae contract is coming along...

[NewEra]

Pass

[jvan1973]

I wouldn't be surprised if Grigson did do it.

You would be the only one. It doesn't even make sense. TY is the exact same player

[NewEra]

You would be the only one. It doesn't even make sense. TY is the exact same player

And we have hilton 2.0 in Brazil

Actually it says Chip DOES NOT like small receivers. They extended Cooper, clearly they like him, and Like Maclin.

At $10M per the next 2 years and $8.5M in 2016 Chip has Reason to Dump the Salary and the player.

 80 + catches, 1300+ yards 9 TD`s.

 TY only had 5 productive games last season and 3 were against Dog Teams.

 

 I don`t LIKE Jackson! So!

 TY isn`t an every down player? We rotated him out Plenty. Having BOTH would be Dangerous and would make for a MORE Open underneath game for Fleenr, Allen, Reggie, and TRICH might avg 4yds. ;) He ADDS Huge value.

 As much as they Want a lot for him, they also WANT to dump the HUGE Salary. and IMO we DO need another SPEED receiver.

 His higher salary the next two years with a drop in 2016 is a perfect fit at this time.

 And Andrew throws just the right Long Ball to hit this guy! Griggs should give this SERIOUS consideration.

 A YES for me. A 3rd this year and next and Brazill. yeehaa! just chatter

[Buck Showalter]

Insanity...

[throwing BBZ]

And we have hilton 2.0 in Brazil

      Brazill MIGHT Someday be a Mario Manningham. And some ask Who!

[throwing BBZ]

Insanity...

I know you are but what am I. LOL
