riftastic28 63 Posted March 16, 2017 I been a long time colts fan die hard . For the first time I can actually say I'm happy with what where doing on the defensive side of the ball. Bigger and strong I always hated watching are guys getting run over. Mathis freeny where great at pass rushing but we never really had linebackers . If we were to get brown and minters I'd be really happy we had to many arm tacklers this past year . I'll be praying we land them . Go colts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlueCollarColts 1,551 Posted March 16, 2017 I personally think we're probably only landing one or the other, hopefully Brown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boiler_Colt 3,736 Posted March 16, 2017 I don't see us getting either unfortunately. Ballard seems pretty unwilling to get in a bidding war for anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It may not be a bidding war. We could have offered Poe 12-13 million for all we know and he chose to go to the better team for less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masnerj 177 Posted March 16, 2017 I think we will sign one (probably Minter as its an easier and cheaper deal) and then Ballard really wants to fill up the other spot with a young guy from the draft that we can mold into a long term Colt. Some one like Riddick or Foster would be great pairing up with a guy like Minter.  And if we get Brown instead of Minter, than we can probably wait a round or two and get a guy like Walker or McMillan to develop into our future leader in the middle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quite possible, but I also heard rumors he wanted a long term deal at 9m per year and we were offering 7m. The truth will likely never be known. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UKColt13 1,399 Posted March 16, 2017 I think it's a one or the other thing at this point. Brown looks like he's choosing between us and Oakland, with Minter as a backup plan. Â But boy I'd love to grab them both. Let me dream dammit! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masterlock 301 Posted March 16, 2017 Hope it's Brown. I'd love to see the Colts add a 27-year old Pro Bowl LB to their line backing corps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe we get Brown. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tmoney 248 Posted March 19, 2017 Oakland and Indy have been the only two teams to have been reported to have contacted Zach Brown. Oakland apparently low balled him so I'm just waiting for us to bring him in for a visit. If we let his tweets influence our decision to bring him we will definitely regret it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
