Tre Flowers - former SEA starting CB waived

[bertjones7]

He has struggled this year, but we are hurting at CB.  He is a former starting CB with the speed and length we typically covet.

 

Wouldn't be surprised to see Ballard put in a claim.

I thought he had enough time to be released as a FA? If that is the case the Colts could make a play, but it would depend on what he is wanting for his next team as he asked to be released by the Seahawks

He has to go through waivers.  Not enough time.  We have third highest priority so we clearly have a good chance to get him like Davis last week.  I’m expecting Ballard to make a claim.  Could find out tonight.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Haven’t seen if he was claimed yet.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Bengals got him. Anyone know where Bengals were on the wire.

Great.

Wow.. We REALLY could have used him, only 26, plenty left in the tank :/

There’s a reason he was available.  I understand the Colts CBs haven’t been much to write home about but I think that’s more a combination of injuries and system than the players.  Bringing in a guy who is struggling probably isn’t going to help that. 
 

Honestly the best thing the Colts could do to help the secondary is get anything that looks remotely close to a pass rush.  Until then they could have Revis back there in his prime and he’s not going to do much in this system.

You forget Kenny Moore was waived.  He didn’t fit with the Pats scheme but he was perfect in ours.

No I didn’t Kenny Moore was a rookie who got beat out by depth at final cuts.  Not the samething as a proven vet that started struggling with the team he’s played with for years and was cut in season.

He wasn't waived because he was struggling though. Kenny was just the odd man out on a defense stacked with DB talent.

A shame.  I guess the Bengals must have been ahead of us.

I stand corrected.  They have a winning record.  We obviously did not put in a claim. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Apparently he needs a man scheme.

[RollerColt]

He needs a man scheme and the Bengals are a good fit.
