No I’m not leaking any sources saying it’ll happen, but it may be a smart move to get Smith as Leonard is dealing with injuries and we could use another top LB to go along with Shaq and Bobby. 
 

I would at least call Chicago to see what it would cost to trade for LB Roquan Smith. He just requested a trade. Then when Leonard does come back the Colts have a nasty trio of LBers. I would maybe offer up a 2024 2nd or 3rd. We may need the high picks in 2023 to trade up for a longterm QB.

It doesn't hurt to try.

He wants to make more than Leonard. I don’t see how it’ll work with the cap space.

A good GM will always inquire.  

His contract is up after this season, so they would need to think of it as a possible 1 year rental.

This isn’t happening.   For way more reasons than can be counted.   Sorry.

He's going to require being paid a handsome amount of money. I mean he said it himself that he wants to help other LBs around the country with a deal.

The only way this happens is if Leonard pulls a Luck and says NOMAS.   Not going to predict that, but the retirement shoe has to drop before a trade happens, IMO.

With all the thread pins that are done with repeated topics, I sure wish there was a permanent "FA's the Colts should acquire" thread......in this forum.

I dont think so

 

We have some decent LBs already

Yeah no chance. It’s very rare that Ballard gives up high draft capital and money on a player (Bucker is the only one that comes to mind). Plus there’s no chance we’d be able to have two of the highest paid LBs in the league on our roster. We don’t have the cap space for that.
