Call me crazy, but what about Trading Fleener and signing Cameron?

[Cribbsfaircatch]

Just a thought.

[NewColtsFan]

You're crazy.

 

Hey,  you asked.    I'm only doing what you requested.....

[RockThatBlue]

Why would we do something that stupid?

[John Dee]

One can''t catch and one can't stay healthy...      hehehe

 

Go figure..      hheheee.. 

[oldunclemark]

You can tell its a slow week

[MrNLM]

Long story short...

 

Fleener is still on rookie deal and Cameron is gonna want the money. We lose.

 

Fleener is a second round pick who would fetch us MAYBE a fourth round pick(Julius Thomas being on the market drives down Fleener's value right now). We lose.

 

If the Colts did make this happen I don't foresee Cameron's numbers being much better, if at all, than Fleener's in an offense with so many weapons. We lose. 

[COLTS449]

Yeah bro that's pretty crazy. First up, We have enough holes to fill this offseason without creating more. Second, Fleener is a really, really good TE. I know he's had his drops and what not, but he has and will continue to improve every single year. Don't be surprised if he isn't viewed as a top 10 TE next season BTW. I expect him to be personally.

[sfergson727]

I vote for crazy.  Fleener is a tremendous asset to the team and seems to be durable, which is more than can be said about his counter-part.  Fleener (or as the stupid auto correct likes to call him: Fleecer) needs to be part of the long term plan.

[RealityIsLuck]

Crazy.

[esmort]

Yeah lets get rid of Fleener he's only gotten better every year.

[danlhart87]

Terrible terrible idea

[Bluefire4]

He's better than Cameron and not injury prone. No thank you.

[oldunclemark]

In CFC's defense..he did suggest up front that he was crazy

[Superman]

There's zero benefit to doing that. Zero.

[Colts_Fan12]

How about we don't

[JlynRN]

Terrible idea !!!

[rock8591]

NO, unless we're talking about Cameron Jordan and not Jordan Cameron.

[crazycolt1]

Why? Fleener is just as good and don't stay injured. So I guess I would say you are crazy.

[buccolts]

Can't have enough injury prone guys on the roster.

[nburgmei]

I'll go ahead and throw a crazy in pot. I feel like this should have been a poll.

[SteelDragon]

*If* you followed New England's model you would keep Fleener and Allen and trade Hilton(or let him walk) and load up on draft picks. They never pay WRs. The Colts always have

Just playing the what if game.

[Larry Horseman]

Call me crazy, but I'm replying to this thread.

Just a thought.

Call me crazy, but I'm trading in my paid off car for basically the same one that's more expensive.

Just a thought.

[Everyone]

[GoColts8818]

It's going to be a long off-season...

 

Is it September yet?

[OhioColtsGirl]

Jordan Cameron can't stay healthy. Why on earth would we do that??

[Gavin]

Cant even take some threads serious I swear

[jvan1973]

Just a thought.

[Arby0359]

Just a thought.

Your Crazy

[Dark Superman]

Trading a guy who's in his rookie contract for a guy who is one concussion away from retiring is ludacris. Fleener has been getting better each and every year he's been here. The Colts will resign both Fleener and Allen.. They have to.

[NewColtsFan]

Just a thought.

 

Just thought I'd check back in after being the first to respond.

 

I'm afraid I have bad news for you.

 

It's unanimous.     A rare feat here.

 

Welcome to Crazytown!        

[Patagonia Chris]

I'm mad at myself for even opening this post

[Defjamz26]

Fleener redeemed himself in my eyes. Made a ton of clutch catches for us this past season. We need him.

[bababooey]

At least this thread wasn't hijacked by some smug pats fan.

[RockThatBlue]

Jordan Cameron can't stay healthy. Why on earth would we do that??

OP is smoking something.

[rock8591]

OP is smoking something.

 

Cameron Jordan, I'd consider that trade.

[ProblChld32]

Was this a serious question? why would you want to trade fleener who will be undoubtedly cheaper than cameron? 

[Valpo2004]

Pretty big risk for a pretty low reward.  

 

Jordan Cameron Career  (4 years)

 

47 games played - 130 catches out of 217 targets for 1600 yards, 10 TD's

 

Coby Fleener Career  (3 years)

 

44 games played - 129 catches out of 228 targets for 1663 yards, 14 TD's

 

Considering that their career stats are pretty similar and Fleener has played one full year less then Cameron. . . I'd rather have Fleener.

 

Cameron had 1 good year where he got 917 receiving yards.  He followed that up with 424 receiving yards.  Prior to that he had 2 pretty forgettable years of 33 yards his rookie year and 226 yards his 2nd year.

 

Fleener was pretty much option 2 this year after Hilton in terms of pass catching.  

[radiogirl]

Epic fail.  Fleener is improving and a good back up.  Plus, he looks like my golden retriever.  And, she's awesome!
