  1. Baby #2 coming any time if not Tuesday next week for sure, I'll name him Brad in honor BS if he comes to IU......joking my wife would kill me. I'll be away for a little while so here's to good news while I am laying low! Go IU and come home Brad! P.S. Glad HSN is back!
  2. LeVert back for Pacers. Another dynamic playmaker. Their schedule is very tough but if they can string some runs together they’ll be right back in it as a top 4 seed. Add Warren once he’s healthy and watch out.
  3. He would fill in very nicely and a much cheaper rate the TY. He can stretch the field. I'd love if we resigned TY and added John Brown next to Pittman and Parris that's a scrap top four WR group. John Brown started 15 games or more in 5 of his 7 seasons so last years health was a one off imo.
  4. Agree 100%. I think Fuller is more of a "2". Now if Fuller can string together another season like last year before he got suspended he could be the "1" wr moving forward. Pittman I think will be a fringe WR1 but moreso a WR2 throughout his career. With the way Frank loves to incorporate Tight Ends it wouldn't shock me to see us have two WR2s with upside and get a TE1 like Jonnu Smith and utilize his full potential that the Titans didn't.
  5. Split end(X), Flanker(Z) or Slot(Y). Sorry should have clarified better. Pittman would be the X receiver as Hilton was the Z receiver(WR1) last year. Fuller is a split end type of WR. Now unless they(The Colts) believe he could be the Z receiver that Hilton was or they believe Pittman will make the leap to the Z receiver.
  6. I like Will Fuller, but I believe he plays same position at WR as Pittman Jr
  7. agree. With Godwin and Allen Robinson getting tagged it hurt the Colts IMO cause now you move the rest of the free agent wrs up as there are less of them available. Cap is confirmed to be $182.5 mil this year. Lots of 1 or 2 year deals will probably occur due to such a low cap. We think this current free agent class is about to be crazy just wait till next year when the cap returns close to $200 mil or more.
  8. After the Wentz trade goes through Colts will have approx. $47 mil. THey have money but a good chunk of holes that need filled. They also need to make sure Wentz has plenty of solid good pass catchers to throw to. DE/Pass Rusher - Bud Dupree/Carl Lawson(Bengals)/Romeo Okwara(Lions)/Hassan Reddick(Cardinals). All of these guys had great years last year(Dupree is coming off an ACL injury I believe). You probably get best value if they choose Romeo Okwara or Reddick compared to Dupree or Car. I expect one of the top pass rusher to be signed by the horseshoe. I wouldn't rule out bringing back Autry or AQM. Autry can plan along the entire DL line and AQM would provide great depth as a rotational pass rusher. A defensive line of say Buckner/Grover/top FA pass rusher/Turray/Autry or AQM/Tyquan Lewis and Stallworth offers loads of depth and can pressure the QB as well as stopping the run. Ballard wants to win from within the trenches and he does that with this unit. WR - Kenny Golladay will get ton of money, probably will price his way out of Ballards liking. WIth that being said you could resign Hilton and sign say Keelan Cole(Jags) or Chris Conley(Jags) or sign Corey Davis(Titans) and sign Keelan Cole or Chris Conley. Conley was with Ballard in KC together at one point. I love a Hilton/Pittman/Parris/Keelan Cole or Conley and Pascal. Pascal is due to return and is a great 5th WR to have here before the four listed ahead of him. CB - You HAVE to have a starting caliber veteran besides Kenny Moore at this spot. Resign Rhodes or sign Shaquill Griffen(Sehawks). This is a make or break year for Rock Ya-Sin. TE - Give me Ertz on a team friendly deal, otherwise give me J Smith from Titans. Draft - LT/CB with their first two picks. IMO you can't afford to pay a LT $16 mil especially with both Nelson and Braden Smith due for pay raises next year and Kelly already being the highest paid C in the league. You could slide Braden Smith to LT, draft a RT in the 2nd rd and nab a top CB with your first pick or even sign a RT via FA and draft a Edge rusher and CB with their first two picks. Lots of diff ways this team can go.
  9. Unfortunately he plays same role as Pittman Jr and Colts believe highly in him so I'd put it at about a 10% chance although he moves the needle for this team drastically
  10. Interesting final 7. Would be big to pair with Duncomb down low.
  11. The team is too predictable with only Brogdon and Sabonis as the primary scorers. Doug and Justin have done solid jobs filling in, however, they are no more than a role player at best. LeVert returning drastically helps this team and could legit lead the team in scoring(injuries pose a slight risk here). For this team to make a run in this playoff they need Warren in the mix and I do not think he'll make it back. Myles defense is huge for this team but he's the only player on the team that would net a good return and we aren't trading Sabonis or Brogdon. Goga has shown flashes in games he's played this season, you can see he's much more confident and active as a shot blocker and sets good screens(he's def serviceable as a backup center and potentially more). He'll be the backup center to Sabonis. A starting group of Brogdon/LeVert/Warren/Sabonis can be very very good and add in a top 10 pick that you could get for Myles to play the PF spot watch out.
  12. you don't make a splash for a FA signing at LT with the likes of Smith and Nelson due to contract extensions upcoming. They will draft a LT with one of their first two picks
  13. Window is open yes. Sign Pass Rusher via FA, sign WR via FA, resign Autry and Rhodes. Draft LT at 21 or trade back to get the 3rd rd pick you sent for Wentz. WIth your first two picks go LT and DL/CB
  14. In the short run I'll take JJ Watt, long run gimme Carl Lawson at DE next to Buckner, Grover and Turay as the starters. Resign Autry and man that is a very nice starting 6 guys at only 4 positions. Remember Autry can play DE or slide inside.
  15. For what it's worth and yes I am mentioning Dan Dakich here but he's saying Colts and Matt Ryan and reiterated this a little while ago.
  16. I'd say it wouldn't hurt. Both plat different positions and have familiarity with one another. I'd gladly take both
  17. offered his teammate Ward. Would be a big get to get both he and Ward and add them to CJ.
  18. IU extended an offer to SF Tyrell Ward yesterday. 2022 4 star guy from Dematha and teammate of four star guard Rodney Rice. Both of which are from the same high school as Victor.
  19. if this kid can hit his free throws he’ll be a fan favorite. Please don’t learn from Race or TJD
  20. No real fight from the Pacers last night. I expect them to hover around the 4/5 seed until LeVert and Warren returns. When they both return and Goga still learning and getting better this team will not be a first round exit. THey should at a min make the 2nd rd and be competitive in the 2nd rd.
  21. This kid fits what CAM loves, guys that are in the 6'5" to 6'8" height range but are lengthy and create havoc in the passing lanes. Allows you to play them at multiple positions. Just look at Geronimo. He was battling Garza and faired quite nice as a freshman. If Archie is not in his ear this would be greatly disappointing.
  22. Rankings don’t always matter see Oladipo/Juwan just a few to name.
  23. Big fan of Goga, he just needs mins even if it is 6 to 8 per game for now. Develop him and you got a really good set of 3 tall guys over 6'11"
