They said goodbye and now the best deal he could get is 1/$7.5. I think the NFL has spoken about just how good White really is. Yeah I just finished reading it. Glad we didnt pay him the 20mil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lifetime Colt Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I think Ballard has handled, and shown some of his cards, on how this offseason will develop. Signing the productive home grown FA's has eliminated him chasing after overpriced free agents just to fill the gaps that known quantities will occupy. This approach allows the draft to bring in the expensive position ( WR,CB, S, edge, OL/DL) talent for 4 years on affordable contracts while filling the other gaps. by "showing his cards" I think it will be a heavy offensive draft, how will depend on how the first round falls. I would expect a trade back or two to get 9 picks instead of the current 7, with the mix to be 5-6 offensive and 3-4 defensive picks. The FA approach gives a lot of flexibility on how the Colts can draft and build to the future championships and the golden ring! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have seen that too. this years draft has an overly proportion of 5th year players due to the covid years, don't see how it could be a blanket label of weak. There are players in the 5th-7th round that can be worthwhile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree. I believe there was a lot of seniors and even 5th year players that declared last year. This year there are significantly less players.

ArmchairQB Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 1 hour ago, NewColtsFan said: You're not alone. Certainly not this year and quite honestly pretty much every year. The majority if the community gets upset as Ballard mostly sits out week one and then makes his move on week two. Quite honestly, I think this year is the most active Ballard has been in week one as he has re-signed his own. Generally speaking week one is where all the sexy FA’s get overpaid. Unless he sees something so important he needs to throw all caution to the wind I think it’s not terrible to let the dust settle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
