Parris Campbell

[JediXMan]

Hope the Colts bring him back. Also hopefully Pierce continues to develop, Pittman,Pierce and Campbell could be a nice trio moving forward.

[chad72]

Parris separates at a much better level than Pittman or Pierce. I have a bad feeling he is gone to another team with a stable elite QB where he can shine on a 1 or 2 year deal for his future.

We’re wasting him. He needs 10 targets a game. So many times the middle of the field is open and we refuse to work that slant over the middle to Campbell. We finally did it once on the last drive for like an easy 15 yard gain.  Parks & Matt left me very disappointed today.  Too much Dulin on the field over Campbell on 1st downs was stupid. And to make matters worse, they kept trying to be sneaky & throw in those situations. Throw with Campbell in the game please. He’s our best possession receiver and needs to be used as such. And Granson with only 1 target was criminally negligent.

Parks was the second choice and he’s not ready.  If Jeff comes back I would expect he will bring in an experienced OC.

Campbell stinks…he’ll make a good play every now and then but he’s really not good at all and drops way to many passes.We need consistency at the wideout position each week not Campbell playing for us.

Lol okay. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I doubt he will want to come back. He is earning himself a chance to have a few teams wanting to sign him.

Given his injury history, I doubt he will be a super hot commodity.  It makes sense for him and the Colts to work something out.

[Smoke317]

I can see Tennessee making a run at him. They have a recent history of taking our cast offs and getting the most out of them. Crazy what good coaching can do…

No but if one team with a good QB comes calling he will most likely be gone. He had calls at the trade deadline.

We paid 4.7M for 4 years. 

Injured years until now.

 

The 32nd best paid WR is 11M this year.

64th around 3-4M... 

 

So yes, we lost out on his cheap rook years, but he'll likely get 6-7M per year (if not more), and will want 3 min years... 

That assumes he continues to give us 50+ yard games.

He's averaged 70 yards in the last two games. 

[rockywoj]

Key, potentially game result changing drop of such an easy catch doesn’t help his resume.

 

I remember when the Colts drafted him (passing on my choices DK Metcalf), Reich was all giddy saying how they got such an exciting play making game changer and they couldn’t wait to get him into the offence.  Then Injuries wrecked the plan, but this year he’s failed to emerge and or the Colts have failed to uitilize him correctly.  I fear that his legacy will be injured too much, but when not injured, more of just a tease that lacks reliability.

Failed to emerge?

Sign him back on a 1 year prove it deal

Too funny. Dudes gonna get paid. He won’t have to sign a prove it contract.

Yes, failed to emerge as consistent go to option.  Whether it’s his fault or poor offensive coordination, that is a debatable subject.

He started slow but is doing just fine now. Had bent colts leading receiver a couple of games. This just isn’t true.

i don't think 6-7M a year is too much for campbell (if healthy ofc)

maybe contract can have injury stipulations or incentives

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

This is campbells yards after the first three games. That includes San for two games.

It’s goinf to come down to who is the GM and will they sign Campbell and does he even want to be here. A new GM may not even think he is a priority. It’s too bad he wasn’t playing like this in his third year so a new GM had a chance to evaluate. Colts are not going to have this QB thing figured out by FA which hurts even more. It’s goinf to be Ryan it a rookie and does Campbell want to even be a part of that.

yeah, if we have a new GM and they have a better option im okay with that too.

 

im just saying based off @EastStreet prediction, I think he's worth that amount, with injury stipulations and stuff like that

I am not even thinking about what he will cost because I just don’t think he will be back. I think it will be him that doesn’t want too.

I could see him wanting a fresh start for multiple reasons.

Yup. Definitely incentives. He'll certainly go with the highest guarantees. I would.

We have plenty of time (6 games) to watch PC and eval.

He's averaged 70 ypg the last two games since Jeff got here, and this week was a great pass D. 

He'll have enough vid for Ballard, or whomever the GM is. And for other GMs who might be interested. 

Now if he gets injured again in the last 6 games, that solves that...

I like his chances.

i do too. i got a good feeling hes gonna finish strong. 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

The issue is will a new GM and coach mark him a priority. They aren’t getting hired until after the SB ao that’s a lot to sift through before FA.

Knowing Ballard, he will lowball  offer him 3-4 million for a year and end up losing him.

Gonna need to make some room for Marvin Harrison Jr next year! Just sayin!

What? lol He has been injured for 3 years, this 11 games is the longest he has been healthy in his NFL career. He has 44 Rec for 440 yards and 3 TD in 11 games. Its not bad but he is not exactly lighting the league on fire. What makes you so sure he is going to get paid?

[cbear]

When is Pitman's contract up and how much will he want? How does Pierce continue to develop? I think those things will play greatly into what we offer Campbell. Would be great to have all three, but I doubt it will happen. 

[Rolltide_gocolts]

I’m telling y’all… I saw the raider game live… dude was open every play, I’m talking 5-7 yds separation 

[DougDew]

Turning into a very good slot receiver.

[Myles]

I agree with those who feel he will be with another team next year.   Kind of a bummer because I feel he could be the best Wr on the team if he would be targeted enough. 

[throwing BBZ]

 Ryan plays with blinders on. That he is so miserable moving in the pocket, at all for that matter, is torture to watch.
 I have no doubt Irsay is still cringing watching him hold us back.

  Campbell should protect himself for now, and go find a good QB.

Pittman has one more year after this year. I thought he might get extended after this season but with all the stuff going on in the organization he won’t.

Why waste money on WR when you have no QB or LT?  

 

This makes zero sense. 

 

Build the roster as it should.  Sell the parts that are superfluous to get the needed parts and rebuild.

I think Ryan sees the field, but he throws floaters on anything beyond 25 yards and checks down like clockwork. He seems to only attempt a longer pass along the sidelines. It is why the short passing game and run game is so contested as defenses adjust.

It becomes hard to watch as you know where he is going with the ball every time he drops back. He is getting backs crushed with his throws behind the LOS as the game goes on. He is just not keeping defenses honest - Taylor and the run game then suffer as a result.
