Welp.

Hopefully no more injuries to any of the DL.

 

Im expecting Sheard to go on IR rather thats returning later in the season or miss the whole season which will really be a blow to our run defense

Maybe Milton can play WR! :lol: In any case, it will be a tough call. We'll figure it out at the last second IMO.

I think it depends  on who we keep at safety to as hooker, willis, farley, geathers, odom have been playing  well

Since our 5th WR is wide open as of now, I can see us keeping Rogers or Dulin for ST's instead of Milton to get the six best corners.

 

Remember, this is real world, not Madden. All gunners are not created the same.

Right. A sixth CB is not really going to get much playing time so you can afford to keep him as the gunner. I mean he is a game changer. If no one steps up in that 5th WR spot it will be Rogers or pascal.

 

Game day roster limits will come into play in their decision.  If we go into cut down day with a starter nursing an injury, they may keep an extra guy at that spot.

How does Brissett look compared to Luck in these practices?

 

Honestly, there really wasn’t a drop off in crispness or accuracy. I wouldn’t have been able to tell. Chad Kelly even had some really nice throws today.

 

Luck had some misses today, for sure.

The problem is that if he has to go in as CB - and he did - he can be a game changer as well, but in the negative way. I admit I don't know much about special teams other than kicking, but I can't imagine a gunner as game changer for extended period. It's not that kind of a position. A gunner can make turnover after turnover in one year, when all stars aligned, then no turnovers at all in the next, because it's not sustainable.

 

So if the Colts can find a guy, who is not-as-good-as-Milton, but decent as gunner, and good at playing his regular position, my vote is on that guy. But I'm just an armchair coach, and I am aware of it.

When you get time can you give us your impressions from today.

I think Campbell  may challenge  the colts rookie record for yards and tds held by hilton and Harrison. Assuming  he stays healthy  and gets the targets

I agree milton leaves much to be desired  as a cb,but his gunner play is good

I can see it now. In the playoffs  versus Patriots  and an injury happens  and milton comes in. Belichick  says let's  go after Milton.

This may be a situation to watch.  If Banogu continues to impress, and Turay shows enough improvement, and with the addition of Muhammad and Houston, the 9-year veteran Sheard may become expendable.  Especially if Ballard wants to keep 4 RB's, 4 TE's, and 6 WR's on the roster.

A 6th CB would never see the field. 6th CB would be inactive on gameday, unless he's a special teamer.

Hate to say it, but Sheard’s Been my surprise cut all off-season.  Tough cut, bc he’s a hard-working team captain.  But youngsters of the future Turay, Muhammad, and Banogu need reps!

    • I think most important option is missing in the poll : No One.   I think it's a fairly average QB class that it's okay to not like anybody enough to draft him. There's no one QB that Wows you with their pocket passing Caliber or pure athletic traits or good combination of both. It's like a tweener class of all those abilities, having lop-sided combination of above said skills.    And, this poll, rather than forcing to pick one QB, needed that extra option to express staying away from this QB class.

    • If one were to understand that all teams defend with zones in very similar ways, and know that Gus plays man about 30% of the time which is just on the lower side of middle of the pack, so what then is the issue with "Gus".  Ballard/Dodds!  We ARE near the bottom in speed, intellect, experience, Talent, with Gus's back seven. Gus is forced to play soft with dem bums.   Ballard/Dodds have killed us with their many misses drafting DE's, Rock-Ya.   This draft, this 53 man + roster should be pivotal, heavily scrutinized by Ownership.
    • I voted Williams because of his talent and if Chicago doesn't pick him and he becomes great, they will go down as the team that had the guy and blew it again. I honestly am not sold on Williams being great though. My dark horse best QB is Penix.   My bust pick is McCarthy. He is Mac Jones. 
    • I do have recollection of it, read my posts above. I never Said you were wrong regarding what I posted but I never created a thread saying he was coming back. I am also sure it was before we signed Wentz when I said he was coming back - which you jumped all over. Time flies. I am not even sure why you started this nonsense? I got a head ache trying to find my old posts and posts I created to make sure I was sane.   Word of advice, you can take this how you want but quit starting stuff with people that is unnecessary. I say that as a friend because as a poster you are one of the best in here.   Calling me out is fine but over something I said 3 years ago is unexpected. I did say what you said but it wasn't last year.    I Need a drink and people wonder why I drink. I can't even come here and have fun to escape the real world. This place is a head ache.
