Colts are currently sitting at $23.5m in 2021 cap space. If the contract is going to look like what was suggested in the OP, then the Colts would be wise to make it a big signing bonus and use a good chunk of our current cap space to lower future years. Leonard Current Contract:1yr $4.22m 5yr $95m extension with $45m signing bonus, $66m guaranteed(all but 2025+2026 base) Leonard new contract: 2021: $3.385m base, $9.835m signing bonus(old+new) 2021 cap hit - $13.22m 2022: $6m base $9m SB - $15m cap hit 2023: $7m base $9m SB - $16m cap hit 2024: $8m base $9m SB - $17m cap hit 2025: $9m base $9m SB - $18m cap hit 2026: $20m base - $20m cap hit That's what needs to be done. That leaves the Colts with $14.5m in 2021 cap space still. They could potentially do something similar with Smith(maybe $5m of new deal paid in 2021?) or wait till next year to try and work out a deal. If not Franchise him, then worry about Q extension next year or still have 5th year option to fall back on. I know the Colts are not usually a big SB team but this will help reduce some future cap hits. Hopefully the contract comes in more around the $80-$85m range though. Either way, as been mentioned, you cant preach build from with in and take care of your guys and then let them leave. All words will ring hollow after that. Get the deal done Ballard

I would agree, if we havent gone tackle at 21, then 54 is a great spot I just think he is going to be gone before 54 -

For the sake of this mock, and no trade-downs, I'm assuming that Ballard is still waiting on Ertz to be released. It may happen before or after the draft, but when it happens, I believe we pounce and get him for a decent price to come here and be with Wentz this year. -
