Indeee Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Ok. I'm guessing these guys might be signed: Mark ingram: I really think Colts will look at him hard and he wouldn't cost us much Pernell McPhee: regardless of overpaying, he's an aggressive 26 year old OLB that can rush the passer. Clint Boling: cheaper the Lupati, yound and will fill need right away. LG and Castanzo at LT Marcus Gilchriest: Yound decent SS( solidifies safety for years to come ) If pass rusher is available at 29 i'm guessing colts would take one. possibly Armstead( he would solidify pass rusher for years to come ) Also I'm thinking if Holliman is there in the third the Colts will take him. I see paggs viewing him as Ed Reed mold. I know he has tackling issues but I believe that can be coached up. He will be the ball hawking FS for years to come. I'm guessing huges and jones play end, with Chap a rotational NT and this is the key. Who will start at nose? My guess is that if wilfork is released the Colts will go after him. so if u add: IngramMcPheeBolingGilchriestWilforkarmsteadHolliman those would be solid additions without breaking the bank, imo Thoughts?

COLTS449 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I think Grigson is going after some star type players this offseason, but not a guy like Suh btw. In his first offseason he had a lot of holes to fill and we weren't really close. We are close now. Plus, I think he learned from signing only mid tier players with the releases of Landry, RJF, etc. Here's my prediction, and btw the 1st round pick is what I think we'll do, not what I hope we do. But still, I think if this scenario happened we'd be the best team in the league next season. But I really hope we don't draft Gordon, I just have a feeling we will.

RealityIsLuck Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'd be very interested in a off-season looking something like this:Cut Thomas Trich GosderResign Main guysSign Gore or Mathews, a Guard or Center and a tackle. Also One of the NT's (Williams, Knighton)an OLB (Sheard, Worilds, Mcphee) Then draft looking something like this1: DL (Armstead, Philips, Brown)2: Whichever of the ILB's are around (Kendricks, McKinney, Dawson, Perryman)3: Best S prospect around (Tartt, Rowe, Cox)4: Interior OL5: WR/RB6: OL/CB6: LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupati is good, I just think given a choice it would be boling as he play LG already. Lupati I think plays RG and that kid we signed from CFL and Mewhort already play/can play RG.

I think if we make Knighton an offer he'll want to come here instead of Oakland too, and yeah McCourty may very well get tagged. If he does I think we'll land Rahim Moore.

DougDew Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 As of 2:45pm February 24th, here's a partial list of what to do: Sign Boling to play G and Wisnewski to play C. Immediate upgrades to the OL, won't cost a fortune, and both are young enough to not have to worry about those positions for a while. Not sure where Mewhort fits in, but 4 out of 5 OL positions would be solid now. Holmes and Harrison can develop as back up C/Gs along with Thornton. Wait to see how Cherilous is before making a decision there. I'd like to sign a DL, but haven't researched enough names yet. I think there are plenty of FA along the DL interior this year. I'll just assume we find an upgrade over Redding/RJF. That's 3 vet FA's that won't cost a lot. Draft Tyler Lockett, WR in the second round. The Colts need a WR who can make his own TD out of a 5 yard catch....haven't had that in years...and TY, Reggie, Moncrief, and Carter aren't that guy, IMO. A guy like Lockett requires the defense to account, which opens up other things, including easier pass protection....since a five yard hot read might be a TD. Target LBs, DBs, and RBs with the other draft picks. Move the picks around to get value with the players drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Track Guy Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Offense: I'm anxious to see what happens on the O-line. I'd be thrilled if we could bring in a solid vet starter at G like Boling and add a rookie with pro-bowl potential at T like Jake Fisher. Other than that, we'll probably need to bring in a RB and a WR, but I have little clue who those pieces would be. Defense: Want (and think we will get) a good player on the D-line. I think the secondary is nearly there, I'd re-sign Adams and hopefully add 1 more younger talented safety. Linebackers - I'd like a solid middle linebacker that can cover. We may not find that in the draft at 29 or 61, but maybe a free agent like Bruce Carter or some sort of a trade. Adding a pass rusher would be good, but I do feel pretty good about Newsome progressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckColt Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I'm hoping Grigson finally breaks his terrible habit of FA signings of taking quantity over quality.Just sign a few top YOUNG stars and fill in all the other holes from the draft and CFAs.

Manning1887 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Your best scenario for upgrading the Oline is Marcus Cannon? I would not spend $7 million or so on Iupati. Orlando Franklin would be a solid option. I think Cannon is underrated, yet more than capable. He will cost far less as well. At the very least, he will be a huge depth upgrade.
