Question of the Day - 07/09

The Colts have three players from the 2012 draft class to sign to contracts: WHICH player do you think will be the next one to sign their rookie contract with the Colts ??

[shakedownstreet]

me!

[FightLikeSin]

Allen, Fleener, Luck. In that order. They've pretty much signed everyone else in reverse order, so I'm just assuming they'll finish it out like that.

I was thinking the same way as CRHughes......although with my LUCK I will be wrong!!

You're probably right but I was thinking just the opposite, because they're working the hardest on Luck's.

How much can there be to figure out? With the new CBA, can't they essentially just give him Newton's contract with a big more money?

Yeah, you'd think it would be that simple. But there are dozens of little things that we're not privy to.

We're not the only team that hasn't signed their 1, apparently it's not a given. Easier than a couple years ago, for sure!

_{Luck's rookie salary is already a given. It's the contract length, salary for the 2nd and remaining years, bonuses, etc, that all need to be figured out. I guess Irsay says they are close though. I'm kinda excited about it. I look for Luck's first couple of years to be like Peyton's first couple of years, not stellar. Then, a decade+ of "watch out everyone".}

How do we know? I mean just because Irsay is tweeting about Luck's doesn't mean they are working the hardest on it. It probably just means Luck's is the contract he's getting asked about the most.

Frankly I would expect all three to get done very close to each other right before the start of camp once Grigson really gets to them on his to do list which might sound crazy but we are just starting to come into the time where the team's truly have to get something done with their draft picks or it will start to impact them on the field.

Yeah, it's all speculation at this point, and I won't be surprised if they're all announced as signed at the same time. I only made the assumption because the Colts are one entity and there's 3 potential agents they're dealing with. I would think they'd concentrate on the most important contract, and the one that is going to get the most money.

[HungarianColtsFan]

I think Luck will be the first, and it can happen already this week. This is my guess, however no one may know it for sure, especially when it is about Mr. Irsay.

[Gavin]

Luck, Fleener, Allen

[JoKeR]

Luck then everyone else will be signed quickly

That's fair but generally the higher the pick the harder it is to work out a contract. I think we agree that they will probably all get done right around the same time. No question that getting Luck under contract would be a very good PR move for the team so I can see your logic and it might very well be right.
