You'd take Swoope over Ebron? Ebron and Doyle on the field with TY would be a huge boost for our offense.

 

I'm saying we let Swoope show us what he can do for the team and put our FA money elsewhere. Swoope has looked good when healthy.  I think he'll be more than adequate this year.

I'm not so sure about that. Swoope is alright, and I like him. I just think for a productivity standpoint out of the gate, I'd put my money on Ebron.

Tight end Eric Ebron is set for a visit with the Panthers on Friday and he reportedly has another visit lined up if he doesn’t strike a deal in Carolina.

Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Ebron has scheduled a visit with the Colts on Sunday. He’d join Jack Doyle, who led the Colts in receptions with 80 last season, at tight end in Indianapolis.

Schefter adds that Ebron will “potentially” visit the Patriots after that, but there doesn’t appear to be a date set for such a meeting.

I watched Him single handily destroy my Hurricanes when he was at UNC. He still talented! I wouldn't him. 

 

I am a UNC fan and don't feel bad.  Eric destroyed a lot of college teams when he played at Carolina.  He would be a major upgrade over all our all TE we have other than Jack Doyle.  That is because of Jacks blocking ability.  Eric would be a big fast target for Andrew.

Perusing Lions forums.. 

 

Their main concerns were drops and attitude (don't know the details on that).  Apparently he has been inconsistent but started coming on in the latter half of last season.  I think they are down on him more than they should be because he was a bust relative to his draft position and who went directly after him.  Still a good player though.

Coby aint the physical specimen that Ebron is though. 

 

Seems TE's dont really get on well in Detroit - eg: Pettigrew and now Ebron. 

 

Our offense seemed to lean more so on the TE and hopefully it still will as Reich has shown he knows how to get them involved, with Ertz Celek and Trey.

 

I actually was hoping we would sign Trey.

I'm starting to think Ballard isn't that impressed with this year's free agent class and doesn't see much talent worth investing in other than for building depth.  He wants to draft most of our starters and potential stars. It is going to take awhile for the Colts to be competitive again most likely.  Problem is we are already into Luck's prime years.

    • I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women. 
    • This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
