It wouldn't be the long term solution fans want, but going into the season with Forsett, Richardson, and a drafted mid-late rounds rookie wouldn't be terrible, IMO

If Richardson is still on the team and involved in the rotation come the start of the season, it'd be terrible.

I like it! Good Scat Back.....Also former Colt for those that did not know but for less then a month....He had 46 carries in the preseason as a Colt and was pretty productive...248 yards and a TD along with 32 yards receiving......Exactly the kind of Back we need, Speedy, shifty

I had rather draft Coleman, and go into the season with Coleman, Bradshaw, Herron, and Ballard. I'm good with carrying 4 RB's.

 

There's no guarantee we'll get Coleman.    It's the draft,   the only team guaranteed to get who they want is the first team.

 

Picking 29th in each round,  Coleman might fall to the Colts,  and maybe he doesn't.....    it's a crap shoot.

I don't care if he's a RB, QB, WR, SS or a coach, if he's better than what we currently have, it would be an upgrade, which is a good thing. It gets sticky when you need to consider the salary. I'd take Forsett on a 3 year 6M$ deal in a heartbeat. I would not take Forsett for a 2 year 12 12M$ deal. It all comes down to numbers, simple as that. Anybody have any idea what kind of contract he is after?

What in the world is there to "fear"

 

He's coming off a terrific year and he's got very low miles on his legs... 

 

What's the problem?

 

He's been a mediocre back the first 5 years of his career, until last year when he was almost 30 years old. I don't see him producing next season. JMO. However, if he came very cheap on a short term deal, AND we drafted a RB in the 2nd or 3rd I wouldn't mind too much.

      Taking Taylor off the field

      By rockywoj · Posted

      Oh contrare, I’d say it says more about Shane Steichen’s skill set as a coach.

      Taking Taylor off the field

      By rockywoj · Posted

      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.”     The above referenced article kind of echoes my feelings on the matter.

      Richardson Green Bay Dropbacks

      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?
