As usual we are so slow. While most teams have already made their cuts and restructures to acquire cap space for the tampering period. We still have yet to do a single thing including make a decision on Matt Ryan. Maybe he starts next season shooting for Caleb Williams.

Agreed. I don't mind not jumping out of the gate to make signings, I do mind not restructuring players and making cuts. Especially Ryan and Foles. There is no excuse for that at this point.

There is no rush to do any of those things though. Whether they did then a week ago or in 3 days, it changes nothing. I get wanting to see some activity of some kind, but just because we don't see it, doesn't mean our FO isn't working their * off right now.

I'm hoping to get Issac Seumalo on day 1 of tampering at least. If we don't, he'll be gone. He has the connection with Steichen from the Eagles and he fills a need at RG. 

I'd like that too but it won't happen. We Colts fans are like Charley Brown when it's free agent time.

Do you think it means anything for Bobby? 

I think it would absolutely affects his market. I still don't think he'll be re-signing here, but he may not get as much as he originally anticipated.

Yah honestly if Ballards process has yielded results I wouldn't be so quick to jump on them. I think they should have done these things before the tampering period. What if there is a FA available day 1 or 2 that they love, but can't get cause not enough cap space due to not being done the cuts and restructures?

It limits our cap space and our ability to compete for free agents though. So there is a rush to do it. Even if we aren't spending lots of money, you never know what patterns can happen in FA (like a position run) that could make you act earlier than expected. We are at a clear disadvantage to other teams who were restructuring contracts BEFORE FA started.

Does anyone here really expect Ballard to sign any top FA? Of course not. Same dull, no action approach since he's been here. Team to watch making moves is Da Bears.

As a Bronco fan living in Colorado as my 2nd team. I'm loving the Broncos right now.

yup and yielding no results and he is obviously not trying to change his process or learn, grow whatever you want to call it.

While I have a moment, and it’s still early….  Wanted to give a shout-out and a big thank you to @Shive for being so fast with the tweets!

 

Don't know how long you can do this, but it’s very much appreciated.    :thmup:

I've had some time this morning, but I'm about to be away at meetings for a couple hours.

      *Update: AD Mitchell signed

      By ColtStrong2013 · Posted

      I think it could be a very sticky situation in the future where players file suit against writers for defamation of character resulting in financial loss. If a report with anonymous sources isn't substantially backed by anyone when challenged, and it leads to a player that is projected by virtually everyone to go top 10 and they fall (even to just later 1st round), it could be considered a serious financial loss. That would be an interesting conversation to know if that is precedented or even possible... First amendment rights only go so far, and confidential sources can revealed forcibly through court, based on my understanding.

      Pretty crazy to think he’s only 65. Hope the rest of this year is much healthier one for him!

      How many games will the Colts win in 2024?

      By coltsfeva · Posted

      I’m basically an optimist every year but I don’t see a weakness on this team (other than the secondary which I attribute to inexperience.  If the pass rush lives up to the hype, that should help the secondary.  Because the Oline and Dline could be elite and they travel well, and because they have improved their weapons, I like the Colts chances of winning the division and winning 11+.

      How to Beat the Texans (and every other team)

      By Moosejawcolt · Posted

      Love the addition of Latu. I wanted him and/or the corner who is blazing fast and a man corner (cannot remember his name). I never thought Ballard would pick either because of the injury history for Latu and the other not a zone corner. In reality, the D could be a lot better this year than last. However it may not be reflected in the stats because they play some very good qb's this year. Last year, the D faced horrible qb play and what is alarming is that they actually put up stats near the bottom.  That being said, I cannot see the D being worse than last year if that is comforting, lol??
