Definitely.

 

Although it might make us make a move for one of the 2 top Guards out there.

 

Hopefully Fries is good, he might be a little salty losing the starting job though.

 

 

Edit: so much for that. Just posted wrap on calf. Hopefully he is good

 

Ballard might bring in some competition now. Don't think it'll be the top guys available though.

Idk?

 

If your "Starter" goes down, and you already need some additional depth.

 

Might make sense to throw $5m out to one of those guys and let Fries be the depth.

Oh I absolutely hope he does don't get me wrong!

I just think Ballard will be focused on bringing in guard depth rather than a starter. Just a hunch though, not based on anything.

Hambright might be able to hold it down.

I spotted him multiple times Saturday against the Bills' 3rd team and thought he seemed to be playing with a noticeable level of recognition, skill and strength.

Yeah he did, I actually thought our line as a whole did pretty well in the 4th quarter.

 

Don't know if you saw my post, but Hambright had 21 pass-blocking snaps without allowing a pressure on Saturday.

 

Stats match what your eyes told you.

Slide Smith down already.

Funny thing about that is, I was typing my post and it said you had just posted

 

 

I said to myself "Matabix is saying slide Smith over and bring in Freeland"

With those 3 in the middle 4 and 1 is always manageable

I like it. I hope he gets a shot this week with the 2's and repeats it.

Really hope the ones get a drive or two this Saturday.

Same, just looked back to last year's Lions game after joint practices. Starters didn't play.

 

 

Saying that, we have joint practices next week to, no way we don't play starters in any of the games.

    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him. 
    • if he is healthy and they make the playoffs in spite of, say, Houston being the 1 or 2 seed in a loaded afc, you think Irsay would contemplate firing him? That would mean we took another step forward and AR proved he could stay healthy and play ball. I don’t see his seat being hot in that scenario at all. I see the organization being fired up with that and ready to hit the offseason hard to take the next step forward. 
    • Hmmm.   ”Healthy excuses will be hard to come by.”    Really?   Richardson, who had less than a thousand snaps in college, then had roughly 200 snaps his rookie year.  There’s one.   And Houston has Stroud who had a great rookie year.  Aren’t most media predicting Houston and JVille ahead of Indy this year?  That’s two without any trouble.     I just think insisting on a division title because a fan thinks it’s time doesn’t stand up to much scrutiny.   Sorry, just my two cents…. And often not worth that much.
