It seems as though the Colts never wanted to sign any of the 15-18 free agents they had. Mathis and Wayne were the only exceptions. Did the Colts brass see anything on film to reject guys like Saturday, Tamme, Anderson, etc?

Losing Tamme was pure sillyness in my opinion considering the release of Clark, maybe it was a cap issue but if it wasnt we should have kept him he could catch and he could run, sure he probably wasnt as good as Clark but he was more then suitable in my opinion

IMO, they kept the two most valuable of those free agents. Whether they should have retained others is open for debate, but the front office seems to be making the right decisions.

Best of luck "Dennis Brown" ;)

Imo with the exception of Wayne because we need recievers, it is a complete purge of the Peyton system and players which is i think a good thing because of the direction that this team is heading. No need for the 'well Peyton did it this way' talk in the huddle. Mathis is D so not a problem there.

Man... Jeff was next to Peyton my favorite Colt ever. He was a class act and always gave 110%. Tough to see him go, but his days with the Colts are not over. He will have a position in the FO when he retires.

Good luck Jeff.

Here's to a Packer/Bronco Super Bowl!

Unless someone is going to throw a lot of money at him, losing Tamme would be foolish.

Not only is he a proven, young TE that should come relatively cheap, he is also one of our few good special teams players.

Agreed, Tamme would be a nice piece to keep and looks like cheap. It would take away a big hole, but I would love to get Fleener if he falls to the 2nd.

Well with all these releases and retirements and such I can honestly say outside of our first pick I have no idea where Jim and Grigson will go next so many needs, we turned a few team needs into needing half a team, Im sure Grigs and Irsay are scrambling to figure out something but this is what happens when you hang to a bunch of guys to long while some of them were good (3-4 of them if that) change retooling is always needed or you have to it all at once (which is the hard way)

I have to say, I'm really surprised by this one.

I really thought he would retire as a Colt.

I agree, I thought so too, until the combine and some comments he made on Bob & Tom, about "looking around" as he put it..then I knew he was not going to sign or would not get signed with the Colts. He is such a funny guy. Going to miss him as a Colt... not a big Packer fan here! but always a Saturday fan!

Reported on ESPN by Schefttner that Saturday and the Packers close to signing a deal.

If he does I'll have to retire my gameday jersey and get another, just don't know which lineman I want.

I don't wear wideout, backs, or ends numbers just the guys doing the work in the trenches......

      Poll: 2024 QB prospects

      By VikingsFanInChennai · Posted

      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.

      Colts have the 15th pick in the draft. (MERGE)

      By throwing BBZ · Posted

      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.

      Poll: 2024 QB prospects

      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.

      It’s officially over: Luck says he will never return.

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      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.
