Mostly just been position drills. A few gal type formations, 5 on 5, 7 on7 .

 

biggest thing so far that I’ve noticed is they’re really working AR and Minshew on their footwork. 

That was Josh Allens biggest problem too coming out of college.

 

What if AR's footwork issues were fixed ???

Nice to see Juju should be back.

 

Makes me question the Lammons signing a little more?

 

Ballard must really see something in him, to bring him in faxing a suspension.

SS must want him to put a beat down on someone

I had a feeling alot of old school colts fans would not tolerate JT turning his nose up at 5.1 million.

Ehh.  I remember, long ago, when Hank Aaron signed a $250k contract and folks thought “man - that’s a lot of money to play a game.”

They’re in the midst of 11/11 drill now. I am gonna say this, I am worried more about our CBs than I was and way more concerned than I am about the QB spot. Not sure if it’s the fact our WRs have gotten better or if our CBs suck, but they’re not doing so hot. Lots of wide open receivers

The last couple years defense had dominated camp. Nice to see the offense start camp on the right foot.

 

 

Crazy, Colts still have a good RB room even without Taylor.

 

Moss

Hull

Jackson 

 

Is a nice little 3 piece.

I’ll say this much, having seen every QB we’ve had since Manning in person, AR can toss it deeper than any of them, including Luck who could drop it in right windows. And AR can do it with surprising accuracy deep. 

It was never his deep accuracy in college. He will have to learn to use the middle of the field and that’s where he struggles.  But if Steichen does what he did righ eagles we will be a running team with some deep ball mixed in.

If teams didn't have unilateral authority to rescind contracts i would have issue with it too but given that they can cut you if you don't meet their contract value, i have no issue with holdouts by players when they exceed contracts.

Babe Ruth was paid $80,000 annually in the 30s. Hank Aaron was before my time, but JT ain't got nothing on either of them two in terms of resume, production what have you.

    • I wasn’t being serious.  That’s why I included the smiley face at the end.
    • Ballard has been saying it for years that the trenches are where it’s at. Doesn’t matter what era of football has been around, you control the line of scrimmage and you control the game. He has accomplished it on the O side of the ball but has tried for years to get a DL that can do the same. I think we will see it come together this year and into the next two. 
    • Harrison, Cross, Blackmon and Thomas is not a terrible group. Someone obviously needs to step up and play beside Blackmon at his level. I think there is enough ability with those four to roll with them into training camp and see what happens. 
    • Pass rush.     That is the key.  Control the line.  Make him make plays.  Make him uncomfortable.  Hey, if he Stroud beats us with his talent and we’re making him complete these great plays, then chalk it up to the game.  But we can’t allow him (and any other qb) to be comfortable and pick us apart.     I hope we see our front 4 provide that pressure because that will make everything else much easier.  I honestly believe we have the corners for our scheme in Moore, Brents, and jones.  But we don’t have the pressure.  Or the FS unfortunately.  Our corners jobs in this scheme isn’t to run step for step with wide receivers.  It’s to stick with them and prevent YAC.  Moore is the best nickel in the game, Jones was one of the best corners PERIOD in preventing YAC, and I think a healthy Brents will be good too.
    • Agreed.  After this last off season, I kind of give Ballard a pass on taking long to find a certified DE (if Latu pans out).  Like QBs, they don’t grow on trees.  You either have to draft one high, get lucky with one in the draft, or sign one in FA for loads of cash.  All I can ask for him as GM to do is try.  He hasn’t been perfect by any means but at least he’s tried with the DE position specifically.   i also think Shane being here has changed his thinking.  Before, Ballard might’ve went with Turner due to the higher upside.  But maybe Shane differs and wants proven players.     Either way, I’m glad we possibly have our stud at a premium position for the next 5 years at a cheap rate.     And gotta thank the Falcons for us landing Latu.  Lol
