if the Colts grab a player on waivers, what position will it be?

[Horse Shoe Heaven]

If he Ballard looks for guys I think he looks in this order.

 

1 LB

2 RB

3 CB

4 WR

Depends on whose out there but I am guessing they will look for a OT, RB, WR, or CB first.

Yes, he was. He was signed by the Ravens to first be a TE, then groomed to be an OL. Joe Thomas was that case at Wisconsin too, started off as a TE, then became an OT.

I would really be shocked if we got a RT better than we have. Hopefully Smith could be that guy soon but he is struggling and mostly suited to guard right now. I would think there will be a receiver that could help us as well as an MLB. We will see won't we?

1. Get this out of the way...RT

2A. WR - Vet to push Grant for 2nd/3rd

2B. WR - that has return skills

3. RB

4. LB - Vet would be nice outside of Goode.

5. OL - Mix in another body for good times.

 

 

I also think we could be pretty active after cuts, should be fun!

Halapoulivaati Vaitai Is a guy I think Ballard and Reich should go after trade wise.  He's currently the Eagles Back-up and is solid.  I'd give a 3rd or 4th and one of our Corners who has promise to play nickle. (this is where they are in desperate need of.)

I know we are not real Deep at corner, but I think it'll be easier to find a corner with promise than a Quality tackle in this league.

 

Vatai filled in well last season but has had a horrible preseason.

If the Eagles send Mailata to the PS, as an Aussie, I'd love for the Colts to pick him up

This post seems to have slid under the radar.  He has a huge buzz in philly. 21 year old Freak athlete rugby that only started playing football this year. 

 

I think eagles originally planned to stash him on practice squad but he has improved so much that they would lose him. It will be interesting to see what happens.

I heard these games live on SiriusXM. If he performed like he had in these games with Luck back there, all of Indiana would have torches and pitchforks at the ready.

Every player has bad game,..or a specific person they are weak against.  Dwight Freeney once made  Johnathan Ogden look so bad,  Brian Billick benched him after Freeney got 3 sacks in 1 quarter against him.  But Ogden went on to the pro bowl that year.

I've seen Vaitai play.  He's still young and could learn more, but still a Much better option than the majority of Tackles we have now.  He'd start.

They've also had him at LT and guard during the TC and preseason due to injuries.  As a RT, (where he filled in majority last year) he's solid.

He’s also likely going to prison

It was also likely a joke.

They should be looking at pretty much every position except for:  QB, K/P and TE  this team has a lot of holes that they should be looking to fill.

Smith will be opening day RT. He will have some growing pains, but will do well for the season considering. Can't wait to watch him surprise a lot of folks. 

Is it ok to toot your own horn?
