But I don’t want to wait 37 days… -
Loved the post and agreed w a ton of it. I have said in repeated topics that if you put Howie and Ballard together you’d have the perfect GM. imho, Howie is not the best drafter. He has had some misses and some terrible evals in the draft. But he is a wizard in FA and in trading. I think the hard part that our fan base just can’t seem to come to grips with is that our philosophy is not going to be to be big players in free agency w this GM. He has said it over and over and fans that get hopes up are always disappointed. I will add this tidbit that everyone seems to ignore: we truly have no inside insight into how Irsay thinks about this. For all we know, he is all on board w this approach and leading the charge. The colts are his lifeblood. He doesn’t have a major source of income outside of it. We know from very sources that the colts have a budget they set every year that they can’t go above. This might be something restricting our spending snd even Ballard’s willingness to change his stripes. I will also admit that there haven’t been many free agents under Ballard that we have added where I later regretted the addition nor the contract. whereas when we last spent freely under Grigson, a lot didn’t work out. I remember how excited I was the Andre Johnson and Frank Gore year and how terrible it went lol. I often stick up for Ballard only because I genuinely couldn’t name 10 GMs I’d rather have right now. And definitely can’t think of a specific candidate I’d take over him if he walked. like other, I’d like to see what Dodds or Morocco would do in the same position. But they at least have to have some alignment philosophically w Ballard or they wouldn’t still be here and be his top lieutenants. here’s hoping the turn around starts w this rookie QB and that that turn around includes opening the check book while the rookie is on that rookie qb contract in years 2-4. -

I am not even a Levis Stan. I am ok with all four. But the dragging of Levis is just out of control. The fact people want a guy with 53% accuracy is crazy. Do they not understand how bad that is. Do they not even listen to what Ballard and Steichen have said about accuracy. Ballard might take Richardson but geez some people need to chill. Draft will be here before we know it and the craziness can stop. -

As an old dude.... one thing I have learned in this ROCK HARD noggin of mine...... No kid is perfect ..... No kid is 100% Levis had MAJOR holes ....... Richardson has MAJOR holes Nothing is locked in We all have our favorites (Stroud and Young are Mine) We will ALL probably be wrong
