Derakynn Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 He is a good pass rusher. Philly has run the 3-4 while Kelly has been there. Looks like we are becoming the senior center though.

ColtsUrUs Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I like Cole but can we please get someone under 30We have a young team still. We just needed proven vet experience who can actually have skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck_Is_Skilled Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I like the move. I really do. He has the quickest first step in the league by far! Welcome to Indy Trent! Now lets get rid of the other Trent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akcolt Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I like Cole but can we please get someone under 30I would like to see some guys under 30 as well but the spots we are signing vets we have youth behind them WR is obvious RB I think we all expect another back in the draft Newsome behind Cole. It is a good thing to have some guys who have been through the wars on the team. If you take AV and Hasselbeck out of the equation we were a pretty young team last year.

Exodus Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I've been an Eagles fan for years, this is a good move. Trent Cole saw a reduced role with the eagles last year, and put up 6.5 sacks. He's EXACTLY what the colts need. A solid situational pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewColtsFan Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 anything over 4m i'll flip Prepare to flip. It'll be over 4 Mil. That's the cost of the market place. Take a deep breath..... this is a solid move. No move is made in a vacuum. There are other players we're still trying to bring to Indy. Things do NOT end today. We'll likely sign more guys tomorrow and later in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gacker65 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 not sure about this signing. From what I have seen, more of a 4-3 DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derakynn Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 If you want to be positive about the money, we are signing a bunch of oldies. That means in 2-3 years all this cap space will be free again, when we will have to be able to sign more of our free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamboat_Shaun Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 The Colts could have signed Revis and Suh and this forum would be complaining. Love the signing. If Mathis comes back to even 80-90 percent, the Colts will have another pass-rusher to help. Yeah, I forgot where I was for a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luck_Is_Skilled Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Great pickup. Wonder if walden gets cut. With Mathis not 100% and Werner and Newsome unproven, I think we will retain Walden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12isthenew18 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'm hearing Trent Cole to #Colts is NOT done. They're in talks but still a ways to go. Get the sense other teams still involved.

Roboturner913 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I kind of don't get this move. Yes, Cole is a pass rusher, but he's not great coming out of a standup LB spot. Maybe you move him down to the line for 3rd down but with the defense set up the way it is now, he's strictly a specialist. I guess that's fine, as long as it's cheap.

Jason_ Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 not sure about this signing. From what I have seen, more of a 4-3 DE. that argument gets thrown around way, WAY more often than it should. Bottom line, is he's a stop-gap edge rusher, not a long term solution, so really it doesn't matter whether he's better as a 4-3 DE or 3-4 OLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason_ Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Great pickup. Wonder if walden gets cut. I imagine Cole will be in rotation as a RushLB, not Sam, so Cole being signed likely has no affect on Walden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grig's will get some help on D in here. I would be fine with the back end the way it was last year draft a S. There just isn't much out there in the way of S especially now that Searcy is gone not a big Moore fan. It is the D Line we need to really upgrade. We got this.

Roboturner913 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Colts play with a 4 man front the majority of the time anyway. It may appear that way but they play 2-gap defense on the line and bring the LB down. That's fine for obvious pass rushing downs, but you don't want Trent Cole trying to cover a tight end. He's pretty one-dimensional at this point of his career. Good signing if they use him right, I just would rather see Newsome develop and add young depth at this position.

Adam Caplan @caplannfl · 6m 6 minutes ago Trent Cole does not have a deal with the #Colts, per league source. Several teams still remain interested.
