Someone posted in 2017 funchess only had 3 drops. He was sixth for the least drops. Also he had the highest contested catch rate. You can cherry pick all you want but my guess is hecis going to be very good.

 

In 2017, he was 10th in contested catch rate. I am not sure about this past season.

 

His 2018 season was bad...there is no need to cherry pick...because none of the stats are good...Ryan Grant was actually a better player last year.

 

Football Outsider

DYAR: 13 (#61...Grant was #62)

DVOA: -10.5% (#62...Grant was #59)

 

Next Gen Stats

Average YAC: 1.8 (second to last among WRs with at least 43 targets...Grant had a 2.8 average)

 

PlayerProfiler.com

Average YAC/target: 0.9 (#113...Grant was #105)

Average Cushion: 3.65 (#88...Grant was #35)

Average Separation: 1.14 (#91...Grant was #76)

Catchable Target Rate: 73.6% (#72..Grant was #8)

 

Let's just hope the Colts have some ideas about how to use him and that he can duplicate 2017.

Take what you will

Supposedly they still have ~30MIL in cap to spend so they have the money to make it happen.

Kelly, Ebron, Castonzo and Sheard are the only ones right now that need to be brought back

Honestly if we get a T this year or next castanzo may not be back kelly imo is the only one we must bring back the others it depends how they play

That a joke? Did you see how bad the line was when Castanzo was out

[Crunked]

I can't say there has been a splash player signed yet that I would have been happy with the salary they got if it would have been a Colts move.....so I'm good.....

Ehhhhh!!!!

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Does anyone else think teams are waiting for Brissett to be a free agent after next season to sign him. This way they don’t have to give up draft picks. Will ballard let him become a FA. I am shocked there has been no interest.

Seems low given his perceived talent. Back to being a change of pace guy I guess.

 

Back with Shanahan. Thought he might not end up there because they have an interesting group of RBs already.

 

Would have loved that deal for the Colts.

He is gonna be like 31. we need to start looking for a replacement LT weather you or any other fans think we shouldnt. If his play falls off we are screwed. If we sign a 31 year old LT to a huge contract I'll %

we still have a few years to look for a replacement.

He’s a FA next year and we need a solid back up to groom

And you think hes gonna be the savior of our line still at 35 years old?

For now yes. This is the first time in Luck's career he is getting the same 5 linemen to start the season and id rather not mess that up.

Not exactly a splash but I would have been happy with the T Williams deal.

I can dig it. Fumbles are a worry tho

Let’s bring some defense in too

[rock8591]

KJ Wright or Jamie Collins IMO.

 

Shouldn't be too expensive, but not too old either at 29-30. Good veteran leadership.

I started a thread awhile back during the regular season suggesting that the Colts sign him this offseason.  I really like his tough running style.   I’m glad to hear that Ballard is exploring the option.  

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

That is interesting. I think we would have to have a injury to get much playing time.

He's a tad overrated on this board because he's an IU guy. If he went to Alcorn State nobody would be as high on him.

[Boiler_Colt]

I've felt all along we needed a more solid backup to Mack. Ajayi and TJ Yeldon were two guys I thought you could get for cheap in that role.

That’s very false. He’s a good RB and Im

not from Indiana

Bortles finally cut

Chiefs switched to a 4 - 3 defense and released Houston and traded Dee Ford because of scheme fit.  And people want them in our 4 - 3?

He's good, yes but not starter quality. Better suited for a rotational role and he's too similar a player to Mack.

[RNGDShobby]

Got both him and Mack in Dynasty league. Not a terrible outcome I guess.

[csmopar]

I have mixed feelings on Ajayi. Unless it’s a very cheap deal, I’d leave it be. RBs not named Peterson rarely come back as good as they were prior to their ACL tears.

My thoughts exactly...

Very true. AP was definitely the exception not the rule.

[YourManBlu]

Not a fan of Ajayi.  Looked slow to me when I watched him last couple of years and 3 ACLs...I’d rather roll with what we got and if we must draft another rb in a later round.  Coleman was the guy I wanted.
