Colts Signing Pharaoh Brown

Brown has been “meh” the last two years, but the three years prior he was a pretty solid blocking tight end. In 2020 only he and Jack Doyle (oddly enough) were both top-10 amongst TEs in their run blocking and pass blocking grades.

I'd love to be able to trade Cox and a 7th for a 6th at this point just to get a better draft pick. Ballard has hit on 6th round picks before.

No problem with the signing, but when I read about "blocking" tight ends I wonder what coaches and the off-season are for these days. Woods and Ogletree, with their size, should be transformed into blocking tight ends by next season if they want to play in the NFL.

Friendly reminder to those who are unimpressed with this signing…..

 

Jack Doyle, was himself an undrafted free agent.  Tennessee signed him after the draft.   Then, eventually cut him.   The Colts with Grigson as GM, signed him.   
 

The reminder is that good players can be found in the bargain isle.  It happens every year.

Jeff Saturday as well, or is it too soon to use him as an example? Lol…

can we move on from Mo Cox now?


Why move on now?   There’s a 90 man roster currently.   Maybe Cox takes to the new coaches and system?   There’s plenty of time to cut him if they want.   
 

Or….  Maybe they’ll cut him tomorrow and you’ll get your wish.

What difference does it make? He is under contract and should have the chance to keep his roster spot through training camp and pre season.  He is guaranteed so let him stick around and earn it.

Not all of his contract is guaranteed

The time frame makes no difference. I'm pretty confident Ballard has it under control. 2.4 million cap hit regardless if he is cut now or at the end of TC and pre season.

he hasn't really produced anything, not even as a blocker. He is certainly overpaid. 

 

Maybe he takes a pay cut

FWIW: 

 

Pharroh Brown was reportedly signed about a week or so ago.
 

But…. as of today,  he is NOT on the Colts roster.   Hang up on the signing?   Flunked a physical?   I don’t know? 
 

He’s also not on the salary roster of either Spotrac or Over The Cap.   Hope the Colts can straighten things out.

This was announced last week that they didn’t expect the signing to be official until something like April 9th

    • Any chance we take a OT with the 1st pick?
    • FWIW:   Today I listened to a guy from The Athletic interviewed on ESPN.   (Darren Lee). He said interviewing GMs at the combine, almost all view DeJean as a safety except two teams.  He thinks the Colts and Jags view DeJean as a corner.     I don’t know this reporter, never seen him before, so I can’t speak to his credibility.  But it sounds like he did a lot of homework.     And I appreciate your view on pro day times being reliable or not.   I’m always skeptical on pro days.  But I thought DeJean helped himself on his testing.  
    • I could care less what he does. Been too long ago.
    • I’m with ya..     I'm not sure we’re going WR at 15 either.  I think we could go DE, and it’s possible we could go CB as well.   Gosh,  I love Mitchell and really like Arnold as well.  And if we trade back I would be fine with McKinstry or a DE on defense or one of the 2nd tier of WRs that could be there in the 20’s.  So many options.   I keep reminding myself, every pick could produce a surprise, because I think Ballard will have so many options to choose from.      Im also not sure Ballard will use all 7 rounds.   He finished in 5 rounds in his first draft 2017,  and he finished in 6 rounds in 2019.   Maybe he uses all 7 rounds, but I’m not confident we will.     One week from tonight.   
    • My Final Mock Draft   15. Brock Bowers, TE,  6’4 245 Lbs, Georgia - Blue Chip Prospect.  Rare combination of acceleration, speed and body control. Hands-catcher operating with good coordination and technique. With Pittman on the outside Bowers will control the middle of the field and seams. AR Will develop much quicker into a top 10 QB with Bowers as his TE.  46. TJ Tampa, CB, 6’1, 190 Lbs, Iowa State - Elite physical traits. Plays with good positioning throughout routes. Very good in press Coverage and Zone. Expect him to compete in training camp and be named a starter.      82. Calen Bullock, S, 6’2 190 lbs, USC - Elite physical traits. He has the range to play single-high safety, the athleticism to line up over the slot and the ball skills to chalk up impressive on-ball production. Expect him to compete in training camp for the starting S position.    117. Tez Walker,  WR,  6’2 195 Lbs, UNC - Elite speed with very good body control. Career average of 30.7 yards on touchdown receptions. Gives us very good depth and competition with Pierce.    151. Grayson Murphy, DE, 6’3 260 Lbs, UCLA - Shows impressive quickness and change of direction to help turn speed to power as a rusher. Good depth.    191.  Keaton Bills, G, 6’5 320 Lbs, Utah - Cerebral player, quick to react to twists and stunts up front. Very good depth.
