Really wish Hilton and Rhodes would either accept our offers or move on.

 

I think that is what is holding up Ballard from moving on to more options.


I completely agree. I would really like to see them sign on the dotted line so that we can move forward. If for some reason something goes south, I would be devastated to see TY go to Ten. There was an article I stumbled across talking about receiving targets for the Titans, and they mentioned TY being a realistic, cheap target. My heart sank. Just NO!

They will announce the 3 deals Houston Rhodes and Hilton at the exact same time and they will all come into press conference to the DX music

If we were to lose him, I get it. It's business. With that being said, it better not be the Titans. My heart couldn't handle it...

I don't see it.

I'm not a TY hater. I'm a huge fan of Hilton even though I want him gone from this team at this stage of the game. My comments might be construed as disrespectful however to me they are just my honest truth assessment that is indifferent to someone's feelings. If you see it differently then that's fine. I never have found TY Hilton to be elite. Above Average for what he had around him and what he was asked to do sure, but never elite and by my definition only, never a true league number 1 receiver. A Colt's number one receiver yes. 

 

 

This proves TY has been the most underrated receiver since he came into the league. Any receiver who hits 10000 yards receiving has to be considered elite in my opinion and TY has a chance to do it before his career is over. And he has the chance to pass a Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe as he moves up the list.

Even if it happened Ballard probably wouldn't sign him. 

You never know. It sure seems as if he was willing to go $20m+ for Trent Williams.

 

 

Not to much money left and quite a few bigger name WR FAs left, maybe Robinson could be had at $14-$15m range?

 

 

Probably thinking all for not, but that is what the Golladay visit leads me to believe

If he gets healthy and can stay relatively healthy, Hooker is a pretty solid player who can probably be had for next-to-nothing.  Was he worth a 1st rounder?  No.  Was he garbage?  Absolutely not.

I agree, would be a nice little solid bring back for $2-$3m.

The naysayers seem to think the FA period is over already and continue to be doom and gloom

Two years ago, it took Ballard two WEEKS of free agency to sign Justin Houston and that could not have worked out better. 
 

I’m as frustrated as anyone that this is taking so long.   I’d like more progress as much as anyone.   But Ballard’s track record shows (A) he always has a plan, and (B) his plans typically (but not always) work out well. 
 

So I remain...   patient.

I actually had the thought of resigning Gaethers again on a deal similar to Mack’s.  He is healthy again.  Might be worth a shot.

      Anthony Richardson: The Pocket Passer

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Come on now…  Lamar Jackson is a two time NFL MVP.   Justin Fields is entering his 4th season, and he wasn’t terrible with Chicago.    Anthony Richardson started 4 games for the Colts.  He’s thrown just 84 total passes.   We’re all pulling for the kid to succeed,  but he’s got a lot to prove before  anyone can credibly say AR is better than Fields or Jackson.    There are plenty of questions to be asked and the answers wont come until early next year.    We all could be having an entirely different conversation next off-season.

      People saying he was a run first QB never watched his college tape. I won't lead the witness, but you can make some basic assumptions as to why people believed that.   IMO, his actual football problems coming into the league were:   - bad footwork. Made him have some inconsistent, wild throws at times. - not that great at making easy, short passes. The layups, essentially.     I'd say in the short sample we saw last year, that the latter issue he dramatically improved on. For the former, there were still some erratic throws (when he missed, he really missed), but he also showed progress there a s well (his completion percentage in the NFL was 59.5 vs 53.7 in his one year starting at college. It's usually the opposite trend for most rookies)   I'm absolutely on board on AR becoming a franchise QB, the only issue he has is proving he can stay healthy. I also don't think calling out two minor injuries vs one major injury is enough to call injury prone, but he has to prove it all the same.

      He can’t as you pointed out those contracts are more or less slotted.

      No , he is not holding out for first round money. Those days are long gone.

      Part of me wishes AD gets 88. I like what Dallas does with their 88.
