Resign nicks?

[12isthenew18]

hearing he's getting zero offers. Should we sign him for real real real cheap like under 1m for the year

[NBColtsFanatic]

I would like to. It may be a bit bias for me though because a friend of mine is neighbors with him but anyways, I think he caught on late in the year. With the Johnson signing I doubt he is resigned, maybe if he is still available and there is an injury before the season? Where are you hearing he has zero interest? Thanks.

[esmort]

Maybe for minimum if they think he can play like he did at end of year.

[Boiler_Colt]

I wouldn't, only if he's unsigned and someone gets hurt would I bring him back. You're only impeding the progress of Moncrief and Carter if you bring him back. I personally would just draft a mid/later round slot guy who can return kicks.

[Smonroe]

He's not going to sign for vet min. Someone will pick him up.

I hope we do sign him, Andre is getting up there and TY is our only other proven WR.

[csmopar]

Got mixed feelings about it to be honest.

[PrincetonTiger]

Pass

[CanuckColt]

Tough decision.  Would we get to watch him float through the first 3/4 of the season again?

[jseg18]

He's going to the raiders

[evilleseniorfan]

You can't buy cheap insurance after the accident.  Do it now.

[TonyBungee]

TY, AJ, Moncrief. Carter & Nicks as 4th & 5th WRs? Sure!

[MTC]

The ship has sailed.

[CanuckColt]

The Dolphins are considering Nicks.

[akcolt]

I would not bring him back I'd like to take a look at Denarius Moore, He's showed some flashes never had a QB or Crabby is still out there if you want a name so the board doesn't loose it's mind

Hilton AJ Moncrief isn't a bad start. Maybe Carter can play who knows, it would be nice to grab a WR/PR in the draft and then our slew of UDFA's

I liked Stevie Johnson interested to see what SD paid. I am interested to see a little more of Lenz too.

[COLTS449]

No, he would just be in the way of our young guys, Moncrief and Carter. Nicks isn't the same WR he was a couple years back. He consistently struggled to get separation with us.

[Bluefire4]

Highly doubt he would want to come back with a minimum salary and being at best the 4th option.

That's a darn good point C449. Nicks would just impede the development of Moncrief & it's time to see what Donte can do with more responsibility in clutch game situations. It's time. I don't want Nicks back.

Ooh...Even, I'm not that cruel. A SB Champion shouldn't have to end his career in Oakland. Warren Sapp did & we all know what happened to him: He filed for bankruptcy, got busted for paying for female happy hour time, & lost his job on the NFL Network. 

 

Translation: Signing with Oakland brings sadness, pain, & misfortune. Just Kidding! Seriously though, you couldn't pay me enough to go there as an athlete. JMO. I'd opt for Cleveland before Oakland man. 

[lollygagger8]

Resign, yes.

 

Re-sign, no. 

[ProblChld32]

wouldn't mind having him back if he continues to play like he did at the end if the season. 

[Grigs build the lines plz.]

Wayne wasn't brought back so why bring back a guy that performed less than Reggie???

[LJpalmbeacher2]

Why?

Especially Not with all the good receivers in the draft.

His veteran presence don't mean diddily when he can't seperate and get open.

[yankeeclipper]

There really is no room for Nicks on this roster. We have AJ, TY, Montcrief and Carter as our 4 receivers. Whalen, practice squad receivers and perhaps a draft pick might vie for a slot if we elect to carry a 5 wideout. 

[akcolt]

Everyone is pretty quick to name Carter the #4 Wr this is the same Carter that could not make Minnesota's practice squad 2 years ago. He has a lot to prove. The WR position needs an infusion of youth after losing Brazil and making the mistake of bringing Rogers on board.

 

We have our vet presence in AJ. We need to bring in young guys whether they are guys with a few years in the league or rookies. I don't see Nicks as anything but a step back.

 

Lenz is kind of an interesting guy from the PS. Lenz (5-foot-11 1/4, 201) was not invited to the Combine, but put himself on the draft radar with forty times of 4.36 and 4.37 at the ISU Pro Day. He added a 38.5-inch vertical and 10-foot-1 broad jump. That kind of speed is always interesting. He didn't look to bad during the preseason last year either.

[krunk]

I'd go with Lenz or whoever it is we draft.  We've already got two veteran receivers on the roster in T.Y. and A. Johnson. We can roll with that.  I think we have a good mix as it is right now. I'd go with Lenz and maybe somebody that is an upgrade over Lankford as the two PS players.  Then I would draft a good young WR like a Phillip Dorsett, Lockett from K State, or Jaelen Strong.

[jskinnz]

All this conversation about signing Nicks is done without real understanding how rosters are set.  Nicks would be the 4th WR at best and your 4th WR had better contribute on special teams.  That does not describe Nicks.  I think it is likely they add to the WR corps through the draft but not with Nicks right now.

[Dark Superman]

If we resigned Nicks he would be a bench player at best. I can't see the Colts taking away snaps from Moncrief and possibly Carter; these are guys who are young and still raw and need all of the field time they can get, since they're the future here.

I like what we have now..

Hopefully Cribbs can get his act together..

Exactly.

Don't see why people don't get that.

If Carter has a strong TC. I would put him ahead of Nicks in all honesty.

Exactly SW1.

It's time to Feed Moncrief.

[Gavin]

I see it like Skinns said, Nicks would be our 4th or 5th option on most plays. He probably wants to be a higher priority then that and that's probably why he has not been re-signed yet....Grigson letting him see what the demand is for his services....Hasn't seemed to be a demand for him yet from all I have read. I don't think he will be re-signed though, I think that 4th-5th spot will be filled in the draft

[LJpalmbeacher2]

I was driving and heard on radio two local sports jocks talking about which wr they would prefer dolphins singing, Nicks or Crabtree.

So I'm guessing there is some speculation someone is interested in him?

[dw49]

He signed a 1 year deal with the Colts hoping to have a good year and then sign a better contract in 2016. No doubt he didn't have a good enough year to get that done. 

 

With Hilton and Johnson as the starters and two promising big young guys behind them , why would Nicks want to resign with the Colts for would you describe as vet minimum ? Seems like that would really put him in a dead end situation unless the Colts had injuries. Plus not sure that the Colts don't want to give that playing time to Montcrief and Carter.

[Valpo2004]

Meh he'd be taking up a roster spot if you ask me.  If we lose a WR to injury and he's still available, then sure, mostly because he's familiar with the offense.  But right now?  Why?

[dgambill]

Had we not landed AJ sure but not now. We got young guys that need reps and I expect us to draft a wr/returner anyways somewhere in the draft since it's so deep.
