Patrick Peterson wants out of AZ

[TYtheGHOST]

Only 28 years old. Anyone see us making this move as a possibility?

KC Chiefs wanted to go after Earl Thomas, till the injury happened; I can see them making a move to bolster their secondary.

 

I can also see the Rams moving after losing Talib for the season. If you are a contender, who needs just a player or two to get you over the top, it makes sense, not for us.

I can see him being moved to an afc team, hard for me to believe he’ll be sent to a division rival

I'll do a 3rd round pick

Think it’s gonna take a second or a first. A lot of teams are gonna be interested in his services. Steelers, Chiefs, Packers, Colts, just to make a few.

[Luck 4 president]

I’d love it. That’s one less position we would need to address in the draft. I’d give a 2nd and a mid round pick for arguably the best corner in the league.

That's actually probably a fair price to pay.  although I could see them wanting more since his dead money were he to be cut before the end of his deal makes him low risk if he doesn't pan out.  In other words, because the remainder of his contract is appealing, it might naturally make the bidding process more competitive.

[Mr.Debonair]

Def thought he was older than 28. Feels like he’s been around for like 10 years

[DougDew]

Is he the type of player that is willing to go anywhere over a team that is contending?

 

Is he a zone corner CB, and willing to get paid like one?

[The Fish]

Peterson is a good CB, if the price wasn't too high, I'd do it, but I don't realistically think this something he'd want or Ballard would do.

 

I get the impression Ballard has an eye for DB's and isn't inclined to invest heavy capital at the position.

He is under contract until 2020.  

[ColtV]

Based on all the previous trade discussion on these boards, I would say the majority of Colts fans would be ok with this trade if we only give up a 7th round pick in 2020, and the Cardinals pick up the majority of the salary. Otherwise they are against it. 

[Fisticuffs111]

Wait, doesn't he want out in part because he's not a great fit for their zone defense? He's a great press man guy, I don't think he'd really wanna come here, not to mention we wouldn’t be really using him to his full potential.

He is more of a man CB though, he will want man CB money, so I doubt we will even go after him.

Anyone who says that is trolling, guys been to the pro bowl the past seven years, has two interceptions this year  IN SPITE OF most teams being afraid to throw his way

That needs to be known almost immediately before any real discussion can take place.

I'm sure it is by those in the know

Yea.  I meant by us here.

[ColtV]

TY my post was sarcastic, and was a mock of the previous discussions on acquiring Leveon Bell and Amari Cooper

[shasta519]

This is just reaffirming to me that Ballard is going to be able to use more than FA to bring in impact talent. The NFL is becoming much more trade-friendly with so many players becoming interchangeable. 

 

This offseason I hope he puts his cap space to work.

[krunk]

I wish Josh Norman was available.  Nevermind just realized he's 30.

I thought he was much younger than that.

Lol..... Yeah seems like plenty here are against adding top talent. Especially if it's fair market price. 

[IinD]

Peterson is going on year 9 in the NFL, this wouldn't be a young Vontae type trade. That's a lot of miles even though he's not old age wise.

 

I'd pass and just draft one with one of those #2's we have.

 

 

[colts52761]

Have seen where Eli Apple, Chris Harris, Gareon Conley, could also be available?

[krunk]

What's going on with Gareon Conley to where the Raiders want to get rid of him this early?  Ballard seems to like Ohio State players.  Wonder if he'd get one of Apple or Conley?  The schemes they played in at Ohio State are similar to what we play here in Indy I do believe.   I know Tyquan Lewis said it was virtually the same, but maybe he was just talking about on the D Line .

[RollerColt]

I’m all for getting an upgrade at CB. Would definitely help give our already rising dline a chance to get after opposing QBs.

I always liked Conley.  I think he would be a nice fit with us.  And young too. 

[tvturner]

Send a 2nd, best CB in the game

Who has been traded at fair market price?

There is not much dead money remaining, only stg like 1.2 mills, thats not much. The Cardinals also payed 4 mills of his 11 mill 2018 salary though, so - considering that he also earned 7 games of money - he'c cost something like 5 mills or less for the new team for 2018. That's bargain price. Which, you are right, might elevate the asking price regarding picks (or compensational players).

[jvan1973]

I don't think he wants to play zone. 

[aaron11]

yeah the colts probably would not be on his list.  he will want to play man coverage and the colts are only one game better than the cardinals

Well just off top of my head Josh Gordan for a 5th rounder... Carlos Hyde is not a Top talent rb But is better than Turbin/Wilkins. He too coulda been had for a 5th.

[AZColt11]

I don't think Peterson is going to want to go to a non-contending team.  Otherwise he'd just stay put in Phoenix.  The only way I could see it is if he felt like that team was just a year away, then he could ride out the rest of this season and get the scheme down and then make a run with that team next season.  The question would be are the Colts that team?  There is little doubt he would help this team.

Gordon is one more failed test away from being gone a long time.   But he certainly would have helped us.   No reason to trade for hyde.  Our backs are good and younger

[Luca_Colts]

We’re not getting him anyway, but i dont think it would be good for us to get him. He is going for at least a first round and few other picks, after the Cooper trade.  He is good on the exact opposite scheme that our defense plays, so we wouldn’t using him at full potential. It would mess up all the rebuild plan that we have. I rather address our issues through Draft and FA, i rather stick to the plan than picking up a player that would have some impact in our team, but not enough to make us top of the league

[colts52761]

I'd take Conley and apple depending on how much it would take to get them

[John Waylon]

Price is going to be way too high. 

[runthepost]

He’s going to NE Philly or the Saints those are 3 teams that already contacted

[Lawrence Owen]

He's a man coverage corner. not a scheme fit. But he is the kind of player i would do a trade for,...even a 1st rounder.  I didn't want Mack, or Cooper, but if we played man-man...i'd want him.
