Polian and Dakich

[LockeDown]

I trust Polians analysis, however, I do question his take on our talent.  He said we were bottom third in talent.  Now, I define talent as your ceiling even before you hit it.  For example,  Turay has talent but just hasn’t realized it yet.  All of our talent is young.  Is Polian saying that if our young guys develop this year,  then our talent level increases or is he saying we are bottom third regardless and just need another draft or 2?

Probably a combination of both.  I look forward to next year.  I think back to what Dungy said back as coach “The biggest development in a players career is going from year one to year two.”

Even If we trade for him there is no  guarantee that he will resign next season when he becomes a free agent 

The only way you make the trade is if it is a sign and trade.

Polian was just making a point that, in order to consistently win, you need elite talent. Dallas Clark was a game-breaking TE. Doyle, is not, fumbles the ball and we lose. Reggie Wayne could do everything. TY has limitations, and is not a good red zone threat. If Colts had top shelf WR and TE, we are easily 3-0

I think he mostly meant on offense. He gushed more than once about the guys we have on D and the coaching. Didn't have much to say  positive about the offensive personnel other than Nelson, Luck, and Hilton.

I think Leonard is holding his own thus far, compared to R. Smith :P.

No doubt.  I didn't say I was a fan of Smith over Leonard just a fan of Smith.

Don't remember if he mentioned Castonzo, the last remaining Colt he drafted.

Dakich brings on a hall of fame GM then proceeds to keep telling him how wrong he is. Why not shut up and learn something? I guess his spiel is riling people up and appearing to be the contrarian under the guise of 'speaking his mind'.
