Nice veteran depth.

I thought Buster Skreen would've been it (no idea how well he's playing, just recognize the name) but Colts secondary needs all the help they can get. Nice moves

Dennard is really good veteran depth!

I feel like Skrine is more of a slot CB than outside. He's had moments where he looked really good, but I don't think he's ever been able to consistently string together strong outings over a sustained period of time.

Like them both.

I liked dennard in college.  I haven’t tracked him in the pros

He's had some really good seasons and a few not so good sprinkled in.

Lot of teams hurting in the secondary this year.  Dennard isn't much of an athlete but he always had good strength and ability to jam guys at the LOS.  Personally I like corners like that and he's worth a spin on the PS to see if they can coach him up to help out.

Lucas and Tell both went on it yesterday, these are their replacements.

Wouldn't surprise me to see either of them on the active roster within the next 2-3 weeks.

Dennard never lived up to the draft position, and has been injured most of his career. Only the PS, so not a bad signing I guess.

 

Jones is a little interesting, but we he's a SS, has had injury issues too, and we really need help at FS...

Yup. Skrine is definitely a NB. Thought we might take a shot at him since Carrie is still out.

 

I think we need FS and outside CB help more though.

As far as FS and SS I remember a local media guy a couple years ago saying colts don’t look at it as two different positions. They want their safeties to be able to do both and be able to move them around.

I'm glad that we have football players to play coverage for our defense....

Jones will probably start if Sendejo is still concussed, if he's healthy I bet Jones is still primary backup S.  Dennard will likely see time too.

Exactly this Chloe, they don't have distinctions between F/S safety.... They ask both to do the same things.  Confuses me why everyone calls Blackmon a SS. On any other team he's a starting FS.  Any player we bring in will be asked to do the same things Blackmon was, we don't play rangy center fielder ball hawks at S as we should....
