No way they hold on to him for another 3-4 years now to just sit the bench. They are all in on Rodgers next two years. Not sure anyone gives them a 1 but perhaps our 2nd and a future 3rd or 4th might work. (Jimmy G type deal??) They need immediate impact players to go all in. Comes down to what kind of feelings we had on Love when he came out. No doubt we looked into him closely as we were needing a qb and decided to go in on Rivers but we have already done the homework. Wonder how we felt on him? Love testing positive for weed just prior to their Bowl game did not sit well with the Colts. Maybe things have changed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A downfield threat at WR— Robinson, Lockett, Will Fuller, Valdez-Scandling A TE who stretches the field —maybe in the draft? A LT, or move Nelson to that position, pay him for it, and plug in Reed or Pintner at guard I agree with all but Nelson to LT,I would trade Nelson to get some of those things above. Nelson is not built to be a tackle IMO. Footwork not good enough and some physical limitations. I heard Jeff Saturday break down Nelson's game and why it would not work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you may have a better handle on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted March 9, 2022 Report Share Posted March 9, 2022 Washington may be a very good situation for Wentz. They have some potential to get better but they needed a QB. He can do what they will ask him to do. Colts (Irsay?) seemed determined to move on from Wentz. If it’s a locker room issue, I wonder what they are put off about.

My guess is a pick might be flipped for JG....but I'm going on record now. I think the Colts like Desmond Ridder....and maybe they are going to flip a pick for a guy like JG but still draft Ridder for a couple years down the road. For Ballard to get Washington to eat all of the salary? Good move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted March 9, 2022 Report Share Posted March 9, 2022 We aren't out anything after the trade to get Wentz here and the trade to get Wentz out occurred. Literally the different is going to be trading a late 1st rd pick for a mid 2nd rd pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s a locker room issue, I wonder what they are put off about. Carson Wentz had an up and down career with the Philadelphia Eagles after they traded up to the #2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft. He had injuries from his first preseason until he forced a trade last year. He clashed with coaches and management, and is seen as a self-righteous diva by some people in the league. His former OC in Philly, Frank Reich, took a shot on bringing him to the Colts last season. It cost them a 1st and 3rd round pick, and they didn’t get the results they expected. https://www.hogshaven.com/2022/3/9/22969356/washington-commanders-trade-for-indianapolis-colts-qb-carson-wentz-nfl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Jacksonville game alone was getting released material for CW in my opinion. If they think JG or someone else can do better so be it but I do like the effort. I'll say this as well. I know DW is going to get suspended but if some of the stuff is just civil and no criminal....Colts might just eff it and let's go get Deshaun even with suspension looming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
