I think that's it for free agency.. don't we have like 12 million left.

 

Depends on how the deals are structured on the cap hits.  We have a few folks around here that likely follow the deals and can quickly deduce our cap situation.  I'm not sure how many million we need to keep back for draft class and in season injury signings as well, so that plays into it also.

I like the signing I would like to see the guaranteed money on this one.  I would suggest it might be a 2yr deal wrapped in 3yr clothing.  Either way I think it will be good for us, now lets concentrate on the defense and offensive line.  I would still like to see pot roast.

The reported 3 year / $21M is less than the 3 year $24M (with $16M guaranteed) that I thought it would take.  If he can perform like Reggie did for his last three years (not including the injuries part - and preferably like RW's 2012 - which I think was his best year in his career), then I like this signing.

 

I can recall a lot of people over the years wishing he were on the Colts instead of the Texans, convinced that he was a top 3 receiver in the league.  Hopefully now that he IS a Colt, that talent translates.

 

This is looking to be the biggest FA year for the Colts, EVER!

    • No for me.  Alec is a cheap potential WR.  No bad can come from keeping him. 
    • I can see the need to improve the secondary, but Alec Pierce should be better this year, and he is so very cheap.   There is also a need for depth, as Pittman and AD Mitchell will need plays off.   I could see Pierce getting 20-30% of the snaps at either side     I am very excited by our offensive potential...... If we have health, this offense can stack up points. Our OL is very strong as well   Who do you double cover?   Last year it was Pittman   This year, with AD Mitchell AND Pittman, we will see deeper zones from our competition   When we had EDGE running the ball with our HOF WRs, Manning could dictate the play based on what the defense did.   8 Man Box?  - We will beat you deep.   4-3 defense/ Nickle?  We will run the ball   If AR5, can pick this up, we will be tough to stop.     I am SOMEWHAT excited by our defense, now that we SHOULD be able to bring more pressure.   But........   I would STILL bring in a vet at FS.......       We will probably wait until camp to do something here             
    • No way, we can sign a vet as good or better and still keep Pierce and see what this season brings.
    • Oh ok you mean overall passing at the time as opposed to Otto personally. I gotcha. For the time he was much more active throwing then most and one of the main reasons the passing game evolved (Along with rule changes). Like some have mentioned hard to compare stats from different eras because of this so won/loss record and titles easier (Though not perfect) for comparison sake. 1 amazing fact is Graham still holds the all time record of yards per pass attempt at 8.6 despite playing in that era. The more time people spend researching him the more they come to appreciate him. He is forgotten by man, when older QB's are brought up it is usually Johnny U. who 100% deserves mention in all greatest conversations but Otto laid that groundwork.
    • Not at all under consideration. O on a ten scale.
