Daniel Jeremiah just said on NFL network he doesn’t understand why the Colts sitting a 4 in the draft order have not called the Ravens and offered the pick and next  year’s 1st for LaMar.  He doesn’t get it.


Im a DJ fan, but I think that perspective is beyond lame.   Very disappointing.

Broncos are my 2nd team and I live in Colorado, so I'm loving this. I want to go to a game this year.

 

While I think it is an exciting time, I am not a fan of free agency. I value the draft a lot more. I like to draft good players, develop them and re-sign them. I would sign free agents only to supplement my team. I think signing offensive linemen is important. So, I like the Broncos moves.

Question: If no one signs Lamar Jackson, does he automatically gets signed to the Ravens? 

He would still have to sign his tender since he was franchise tagged. His other option is not signing it and sitting out.

He will need to sign his tag, which ties him to the Ravens for one more year at salary of about 32-33M if I'm not mistaken...

I generally like FA for two things. 1.) To build around a young franchise QB (Trevor Lawrence Jags last year) or 2.) To fill needs 

 

We are doing the latter on the Broncos and I love it.

Huh? 
 

The Colts sign free agents every year.   Just not typically in the first few weeks.   

You know what I mean, but I’ll further elaborate. The Colts signing or trading for any big name players and not just depth/rotational players will be a surprise to me. I only expect depth and resigning their own guys.

Because Ballard would be stupid to do that

Lamar would still have to sign the tag, which he probably wouldn't do until a few days before the regular season begins to avoid as much injury risk as possible.

T J Edwards of Eagles takes a lot of bad angles, not sure what the Bears saw in him. It’s their loss, Eagles won’t miss him.

 

Rodgers or Garropolo, that’s what the Jets will finalize today

The Walmart Broncos are wheeling and dealing. Not surprised. They're flailing about hoping something works after watching the Chiefs win over and over and over and over and over...


Next, they’ll ask Russell Wilson to give them a Walmart style rollback with his contract :)

When Ballard has spent money in free agency (rare, but not never) he has spent it well.   Justin Houston, Stephon Gilmore, Denico Autry.    

Id like to see him do it more often.   But he’s almost never in the first wave of signings.   Even the three names I mentioned were not early, in fact Houston and Gilmore were in April. 
 

I’m not expecting him to change and suddenly spend big money.    I only wish he’d sign more of the medium and inexpensive players than he normally does.

Not too much. It is a good deal for the Raiders. I wish my team had such a deal with our QB. 

 

The best news about my team is that an extension for Cousins is not imminent. I hope that is true. His contract is killing us.

      *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??
