They're both fantastic,  but I don't think either is realistic.

 

TYH is likely going to get a contract worth $8-9 Mill per year.

 

Thomas is going to want money like that or more.    Fitzgerald is already in talks to stay with Arizona.   And if he leaves,  he'll be offered decent money by most everyone.    Probably more than we can or want to pay.

 

So,  I think we look elsewhere.    And if he continues to play well,  and doesn't want too much money,  the player we may sign is.....     Hakeem Nicks.

Fitz is getting a little old for the NFL. I'd be fine with Thomas. I think we need that big 6'3 fast, strong, athletic, deep threat, jump ball type beast to go with Moncrief and TY.  With all that said I want us to take Green Beckham in the 2nd round instead of signing anyone to a big contract because he's exactly what I want us to have, an AJ Green or Megatron type superstar. Don't get me wrong I believe Moncrief will be that type of wide out next season but more is always better.

My FA WR on a one-year, prove-it contract (Grigson signs one every year) is Leonard Hankerson from the Redskins.  I loved him coming out of college, and he had productive 2nd and 3rd years with the Redskins.  Then, he tore his MCL, ended up on the NFI or PUP list, got activated mid-season 2014, and amassed no stats.  Worth a shot as a good route runner with good physical skills.

Eh, I would probably just bring back Nicks, and roll with Moncrief, Hilton, Nicks, Fleener, and Allen as our targets for Luck. If Wayne wants to come back we can sign him too. Maybe sign a cheap depth wide out or draft one in the later rounds as well.

I like this Idea!! As long as Nicks dont want a whole bunch of money. I really think he could produce big time for us. And the draft looks like its gonna be deep at WR. So we could probably find a decent guy in the 4th or 5th round as insurance.

I remember when he came out most on this board liked him and wanted him as the successor to Wayne. I really wanted this guy. Bring him in

At this rate, Hilton's looking at $10+.  Easy.

    • Excerpt from an article at NFL.com …   ”… One player the Colts can lean on while Richardson gets his sea legs: running back Jonathan Taylor. After last year's hold-in and injury issues, the star running back looks back to his old self. JT bursts through the line like a Mustang on fire, leaving linebackers in his wake. On Sunday, Taylor totaled 12 carries for 103 yards and +55 rushing yards over expected, his most RYOE in a game since Week 15 of 2021. He also forced five missed tackles across 14 touches.    Shane Steichen's decision to bench the star back during the entire fourth quarter because the Colts were in pass mode belies credibility. Even if Taylor isn't a prolific pass catcher out of the backfield, sitting your best offensive weapon for an entire quarter is folly -- hopefully one Steichen doesn't repeat. If defenses are going to sit back to slow Richardson's deep attack, Taylor should gobble up chunk gains.    At this point, Taylor is the most consistent thing going for Indy. The 25-year-old back owns a game-changing gear and can shoulder a massive load. His presence and production should help settle Richardson down during the roller-coaster dips. Taylor hasn't looked fully healthy in a couple of years. He did this past Sunday. The Colts need to ride that stallion.”    
    • Exactly I am confused with that comment by Shane unless that one drop deserved him to be benched. Again coaches know what's the best. 
    • I'm not sure why the team thinks JT can't be effective in the passing game.   
    • I know that you use the word only once, and I'm sure that you know what it means. But find one example of me contradicting myself please?
    • At 0:57 and at 2:14 also that was a nice throw to JT and converted to FD, so whats that talk that they wanted to go pass only and JT is not fit for pass.?
