Reminder Colts are not a attractive destination right now.

Neither were the Patriots last FA offseason and they had no problem signing players. FA players did not even know who their QB was going to be at the time.

If Saints get Watson, will Sean Payton come out of retirement? Valid question.

I would say that Payton is one of the more "on-script" play callers and HCs, and Watson is one of the more non-scripted and improvising QBs.  Seems like oil and water to me, but you never know.

Must not be much value in Jimmy 

Or SF telling potential suitors that they are willing to wait.  Meaning, JGs price goes up if you wait us out to trade for him, because if you do, JG will be your only option by then.

I really don’t think Ballard knows how to work FA.

 

 

Overall, I wouldn't expect anything different from Ballard. He has a process and he will hold steadfast to that process.

 

I'm actually not too worried about it. Irsay hired him to build the team and Ballard should have the opportunity to follow through on his vision on how this team should be built, without succumbing to internal and external pressure.

 

In the end, he should be judged by the actions he's taken and not taken.

Mitch T to the Steelers is strange. I doubt he's starter material for them and they already have 2 back ups. Well, he's better than Rudolph..

 

2 year deal suggests they are open to the possibility of Trubisky being there long term if he does well in year 1, IMO.

Colts should go with Fitzpatrick. Not afraid to stretch the field and would be glad to hand it off to JT as a stop gap QB. For what it is worth, Fitzpatrick had a better rating than Jimmy G and Mitch Trubisky in 2020, the last full season he played.

    • I think you understood his words in a "positive" way, but that's not what he said.   He DID NOT say that "most of you would choose to get married..."   That's your implication. Of course, only women can bring children in this world and most of the women will choose to be married and have children, but that's not exactly what he said.   He said, "doing so - while some others will go on to lead successful career in the world - will take you closer to God's Will"    Here's what he said from the transcript:    He could've said, "even if you go on to have a very successful career, and get the greatest accolades of the world, I think the most important title of a woman is :  Homemaker. And, that would take you closer to God's Will"    But, he didn't say so because he wanted to say exactly what he believes women should do and brought God into that by saying that's His Will.    I think he made a mistake of implying that women are generally excited about marriage and having kids and being a homemaker, when that's only part of a woman's life - even though that could be the most cherished and blessed part of the life.   He only looked at how that made his wife's life - his words, not his wife's words by the way - and projected that to all the women. 
    • This happens every single year and every single year people worry about the occasional unsigned rookie when we haven't even gotten into June yet.   Guys/gals... it's really a big nothing burger. Ever since the NFL introduced rookie scale contracts this has been a non-issue. Everything important in those contracts has been made non-negotiable. The negotiable things are largely minutiae - it's about schedule of payment...it's about off-set language, or language about voiding salary payments(for example - can the team void payments for suspensions and stuff like that), etc.   There are two cases I remember in the last 10 years where this has become a problem and the player has actually missed training camp practices because of it - Joey Bosa(because of schedule of payments dispute) and Roquan Smith(because of dispute about the language about voiding payments for suspensions because of play). And as you see... Both of those were top 10 picks. (i.e. more money on the line)...   Holdouts/holdins of day 2 and day 3 picks are pretty much unheard of. I personally couldn't find a single case when I looked for it.    AD seems to be taking part in both rookie mini camp and in OTAs and hasn't missed any practice, we haven't heard about any sort of dispute so far, so my assumption would be there is nothing to see here and it's all formality.    So yeah... Unless we hear there is a problem I would just assume everything is good.
