Report: Colts May Look Hard At S Nakumura Ravens

[Indeee]

Rotoworld states Nakumura may get hard look from Colts in FA as he's not expected to re-sign with Ravens seeing as Ravens have Reed and Pollard. Pagano ties at work here. Bengals also may be interested

no i want landry

If Pagano looks at only one of them, then I TRUST him he would know more than us

[dgambill]

Pagano being a former secondary coach and familiarity with the guy means one of two things....he has some talent or at least can be a temperary stop gap as he knows the system. Either would be satisfactory. Landry has been injury prone and obviously spent WAY to much time in the weight room. I remember Charger/Dolphin receiver Boston who bulked up like that and all it did was mean MORE injuries carrying all that weight....and possibly steroids lol.

[chrisfarley]

we dont have much cap room to sign free agents this year. next year we might land someone like you're talking about but not until then.

[MTC]

There is our big name free agent ladies and gentlemen.

and get an expensive Bob Sanders like player. Have fun watching him cheer on the players from the sidelines. He'll get injured before the season starts. Not worth it!

Now with Nakumura, he had some good and he had some bad this year. Didn't play much with Reed and Pollard as the starters, but when he came in, he didn't look great. Plus, he's a FS and Bethea plays FS. Look for more of a Thomas Decoud kind of player.

the guy has been injuried 11/2 seasons out of his 5 years in the league how is that injury prone

He has horrible legs. It's not like those 2 injury filled seasons were 2 freak injuries. They were mulitple injuries that made him miss 2 games and he would come back and play a half and miss another 2 games. He tends to come back early. He started the beginning of last year on the PUP. He plays a way too physical game to stay healthy. He's a great talent, but he's injury prone as he's had at least 7 different injuries in the last 2 years, including a couple of hammy's and a groin injuries. A shoulder injury also effected him, a thigh injury hurt him and even a finger injury held him out for a little bit. He gets injured everywhere like Sanders.

we have about 20-25 mil to spend this year..and thats not even counting the additional 14 mil we will get once we let go of Freeney..I think we'll be alright..and I'm pretty sure this guy won't command top dollar..

but thats what we need. we need someone to be able to play on the line whos physical so bethea doesnt have to and can do what he does best which is play center field. he might have injuries but the biggest difference between him and sanders is that he hasnt missed a massive amount of games.

That would have worked before Pagano. It won't work as much in our 3-4 defense. The safeties are coverage first, not run stop first. No one is Bob Sanders, injury wise, but Landry has missed as many games as he's played in the last 2 years. It's a concern and on top of all of this, he wants a big contract, look at the contract he had in WSH. It was 6M+ for the last couple of years. How can the Colts give a contract to a guy who's been injured a lot lately and is asking for a 6M+ contract. It's too risky and not really worth it. Playing in the box is his thing and Pagano doesn't do that as often. I'm not saying he wouldn't do well with the Colts, but I've stated my concerns and the teams probable concerns, so it's not likely he signs here.

doesnt pollard and polamulu play on the line? he cant expect that much money, the redskins are *s and will pay anything. look how much money they gave fat albert. look at the horrible deal they made to get RGIII

[GoColts8818]

Finally some talk about adding someone! I want him just because we are talking about adding someone and not dumping players! Clearly that is said a bit tounge in check but he does seem to make sense if the colts can land him.

Pollard doesn't play much or at all on the line. Polamalu does but that's irrelevant in this situation. The REdskins gave him a big deal and the frame of mind that he deserves that money. It's too expensive for the Colts especially now and if he gets injured, it would just kill them. They can't invest a lot of money in a guy who's missed half of his games in the last 2 years. Better options out there like Decoud, who's not that expensive, young and has good potential.

[CS Colts Fan]

looks like decoud will/has signed back with Falcons...

You are speaking my language....

..This is the time to be signing players...and we need to start filling needs....and safety is a glaring need

we only have so many draft choices..

..a half dozen O-linemen were released this weekend.....
