Free Agents likely to be Overpaid....


Recommended Posts

Not sure how they can really put Jones in there. Then again most exposure writers get to a player is reading about them in another article. 

 

"The 5-foot-9 Skrine had the luxury of playing alongside Joe Haden and still struggled at times." This dude is an imbecile. How do those things correlate? If you play next to one of the best corner's in the game, you are going to get thrown at more. That is how it works. It doesn't make your job easier, it makes it harder.

You could rewrite that to say "the 5-foot-11 Haden had the luxury of playing alongside Buster Skrine and still struggled at times."

Jeremy Maclin. Finally managed to get a 1,000 yard season because he played under Kelly. Will get severly overpaid by a team looking for a number 1 receiver. I could see the Dolphins making the same mistake with him that the old GM made with Wallace.

Maclin is a better overall receiver than Wallace.

I agree. I just don't think he's a guy you give number one receiver money to. He's a very good number 2, but he's fools gold as a number 1.

He could re-unite with Reid in KC, but if he wants big money, I'd look elsewhere.

I'm gonna puke if Grigson/Chuckles throw big dollars at part-time backup McPhee.

 

It's OK to overpay Suh...it is the nature of free agency.

 

No to Torrey Smith...no to Maxwell...no to Crabtree...no to Fairley (injury-prone)...no to Franklin.

 

OK to pay Maclin but he has spent a lot of time 'in the shop'...prefer to overpay Cobb.

 

Meh to Knighton and Skrine...only sign to reasonable contracts.

    • Wait what? Really? Have they watched the same games we have?!
    • The money really isn’t an issue to me, tbh. First of all, our ultra frugal GM makes sure to leave plenty of unused cap space, so it’s not like we need that money elsewhere.  Second, with the way the cap increases every year that deal’s percentage of cap space shrinks every year, and even at its highest %, it was peanuts.    While everyone else lost their minds about the deal being a record for a kicker that has always been a nonstarter for me, and in the grand scheme it’s not a huge deal.    Not getting what we paid for is another story, however. 
    • Kind of funny actually considering he was the forum whipping boy all thru preseason and camp
    • It's just weird not seeing linebackers reading runs and going forward to drill rb's in a hole.   Leonard's turnover creating peanut punches and interceptions helped mask how weak our D's were. Ballard is a failure at producing a contender type D.  And there are more than enough points on the graph as proof.  
    • It is crazy. The fanbase thinks they were going to avoid the whole team struggling. But the Colts D is even worse this year and young Ant Rich doesn't even play D lol. If this keeps up, Gus is gonna get on the bus outta town. Speakin of "Stop it," I'd like to see this D stop somethin, stop anything. Stop the run, stop the pass, and do not let da Bears, with their rookie QB and trash oline, look like a real offense, or I'll panic for real. The D needs to get this turned around so that "My Bad" Bullhead Ballard will still be here to extend some more contracts. Ol' Jimmy I. is patient, but I bet he doesn't like looking like a fool.     NFL defense rankings 2024   30. Indianapolis Colts (28): Worst NFL defenses 2024 Let’s put things into perspective with this Indianapolis Colts defense. Malik Willis, who entered Sunday with a career 48.7 QB rating, completed 85.7 percent of his 14 pass attempts for 1 touchdown and 126.8 passing yards. That means through two weeks, this Colts defense has allowed a 115-plus QB rating in consecutive games. As for the Colts run defense, this group surrendered over 200 rushing yards for the second consecutive week. It’s inexplicable why Gus Bradley was retained and even more baffling why this unit wasn’t adequately addressed by GM Chris Ballard this offseason. Ultimately, it will be the Colts’ undoing.   https://sportsnaut.com/nfl-defense-rankings/
