Anyone have any interest in re-signing any of these six?
Personally, I would love to have TJ Carrie, Houston, and Burton back.
Clark, Green, and Hooker, well, best of luck on your new careers, gentlemen.

If we need bodies and some depth then sure. I am wondering if there will be another wave of cuts where we can pick up an upgrade.
Houston not really what he used to be. Burton never really impressed me. Carrie would be good depth.

I thought burton brought a lot of flexibility to the offense. If they don’t have a guy targeted in the draft then he should be brought back. Same applies to Carrie in the context of depth. Who the fuck bows what Rock is going to look like this year.
I guess hooker is objectively a bust. Nobody is lining up to sign him. I’m torn on Houston. I think Indy has to get better at the position and Houston does nothing to really help that.

I see all these guys as depth/back up types so it depends on what they want money wise and who else is available. Houston, Carrie and Burton would all make sense at the right price point. None of them are game changers

I completely agree. On the plus side, that is depth that already knows the organization, the system, the locker room.
My thinking is that except for Houston, whose performance may decline a bit due to age, they keep us at the level of last year. The only positions that need to be replaced at that point are LT and DE. They do that in the first two rounds, and then anything added in the draft will only see the field if it is an upgrade on what was on the field last year.
Plus, all year long I thought Carrie was a better cover corner than Ya Sin. Maybe not the tackler, but everything else was better.

Houston and Carrie
Hard pass on the rest
We’ll address TE either when Ertz gets cut or in the draft

I want Houston back #1. There isn't an ER that would be available at 21 that would be better than him this yr or at least 1st half the yr anyway.
Carrie would be second on this list then Hooker as depth. Kinda thin at safety
Burton ehh. I'm hoping we get Ertz

Nope. Houston I'm OK with if we don't land a quality EDGE in the draft.

Clark is following Sirianni to Philly. He signed a 1-year deal with the Eagles.

The Eagles announce they have signed OT Le'Raven Clark.
It’s a one-year deal for Clark, who is coming off a torn Achilles suffered in December.
Clark, 28, is a former third-round pick of the Colts. He has appeared in 47 games over four seasons in Indy with 15 starts, including three last year.

Of the six, I never would have thought he would be signed before the others.

Philly had the worst line last year. So he probably looks good to them lol
Wentz is going to love the Oline in Indy.

Philly’s line was well ranked the years previous I believe. I think they fell to 18th last year due to injuries.

TJ Carrie was the first one to sign of the six players originally mentioned. He signed about a month ago. Carrie is back with the Colts.
I agree that I thought Houston or Hooker would have signed a deal before Clark. Both of them have been on free agent visits but neither has signed a contract yet.

I wasn't considering that, since he signed back here.

I wonder what the hell is up with Hooker?
Wasn’t a top tier player for us, but I never thought he was garbage...

He will sign somewhere before training camp begins.
He has been on a few free agent visits so far....Dallas, Miami, etc.
