Now we know why TY will talk with Doyle

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I can’t find the other thread. So will start a new one . Looks like they both might retire together.

They are going to make their decision together. So if Doyle retires TY will retire. I am not prepared to lose both. I would be ok bringing TY back one year if Doyle finished his contact in 22.

Who is worried?  It’s just info from a presser today.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Sorry I added Joel ericksons tweet above where he says he will make his decision off Jacks.

[Mr.Debonair]

Either way, Colts need to move on from both. Prob TY moreso that Doyle

[LJpalmbeacher2]

It's really insignificant if they both retire as far as the teams production is concerned, especially going forward. 

TY was a excellent receiver, maybe Top 3 ever in Indy and his production in his prime was much appreciated.... one of my all time favorite Indy players.... Doyle has been a solid TE receiving & blocking for years since the Griggs days.

Hopefully they will be replaced by players that will have more impact than they have been in last year or two.

Good luck to them in after football life.

I'd retire if I were either of them. Injuries, concussions, age, go while the getting good.

That doesn’t mean I am worried. It would just be sad to have them leave.

I will just have fun with this because it is off topic but it does relate to TY so legit here:

 

Imagine taking on this offensive all-time Indianapolis Colts team:

 

QB - Peyton Manning

RB - Eric Dickerson

WR 1 - Marvin Harrison

WR 2 - Reggie Wayne

Slot - TY Hilton

TE - Dallas Clark

LOT - Chris Hinton

LG - Quenton Nelson

C - Jeff Saturday

RG - Braden Smith - put him at Guard which was his natural position.

RT - Ryan Diem

 

-Hell we would average 40 points a game in today's league  

[Four2itus]

I would put Meadows at RT

Good call a friend of mine loves Diem so I did a shout out for Diem, Diem was good.

[Colts1324]

Granted Hilton is a FA, it’s $16 million coming off the books if both retire. 
 

We can use that money to get a top FA or two middle tier FA’s

[2006Coltsbestever]

I know a lot would take Edge over Dickerson too but Dickerson to me is a top 5 RB of all-time and he was great here for 4 years.

[chad72]

Doyle will be missed more than TY since he’s like a 6th OL at times and even JT has mentioned how important Doyle’s communication has been with him as to how he will block certain guys on certain Ds so JT knows where the gap will happen on the TE strong side.

I'd put Kelly at C, Meadows at RT, arguable at RB among Dickerson, Edge and Taylor (small sample size, but this is shaping up to be arguably the best season by an Indy RB ever). And maybe Tarik Glen at LT.

[k9copinmd]

IMO Colts need to spend some $$$ and get a top of the line TE if Jack retires. Even if it's just  someone like Ertz for a year or two.

I’d probably go Taylor at running back or Edge.

 

id go Slot at RG.  Other than that I agree.

My first thought was Liberace.   But that’s probably too old of a reference for this group.

No.  Most people who complain about Doyle don’t value all the ugly things he does.  His blocking a lone is huge.  He’s also a reliable move the sticks guy in that when you need a big catch for three to five yards for you on third down he’s going to get it.  
 

however, some people want big play tighteneds and Doyle was never going to be that thus they don’t like him.

Honestly, I love Doyle. He's such a great story; self made player who battled to stick around and eventually became a valuable starter. But I'm with those who believe the Colts need an impact TE to help take this offense to another level. Add in an upgrade over TY, another great Colt past his prime, and the offense could truly soar.

You can have more than one tightend.  Granson was drafted to be exactly what you said.  It might take a little time for him to develop into it.  I have no problem with wanting a big play free agent along with Doyle.  I take more issue with people who say Doyle sucks because he’s NOT a home run threat at tightend.

I’m guessing auto-correct changed it and you meant Ron Solt?  Good choice.

You have recency bias.

 

I know all those players, including Chris Hinton who played for the Vikings in his later years. I was a fan of his. We used to have good OLs then.

 

Why is everyone ready to get rid of Doyle? He seems to be an invaluable asset to the offense.

Doyle has always been above average to good IMO, I have no idea why anyone wouldn't want him on our team. I guess they see a player like Mo who is so athletic that they figure Doyle is expendable. I like both on our team.

Because everyone wants an Andrews or Ertz.

True but I want an Adams and make Pitt a #2 . Ertz is very good and so is Andrews.

I’d take either, honestly. Adams/Andrews/Ertz.

I think Wentz gets a raw deal from the media as a whole but he doesn't have the weapons like a Mahomes has. Give him Kelce and Hill we would be unbeatable. Rodgers even has Adams, Pittman is good but not on those guys level.
