That's an awful lot of money to take on if we were to. But he might be that much of a difference maker that it could be worth it, but i am not so sure i would pull the trigger.

There are no true 3-4 NT in draft that will probably be drafted before the 5th round; none are difference makers

Sounds like a lot of $$$, I would pass and try for Hankins ... :cool:

Wow...no thanks that's a lot of cap. If we released Langford would it make sense then? Seems it would be a production upgrade. And, your really got me worried about NT now. There has to be a plan. Al Woods is it? and then a late round draft choice? I'm starting to miss liquored up Parry.

We are just not fixing NT this year, I don't think.

Parry, Woods and perhaps a rookie in some combo is what we will have. But the rookie will be, most likely, Just Another Guy.

Muhammad Wilkerson will not play NT even if the Colts somehow traded for him. That said, the upside of the contract seen here is that literally none of it would be guaranteed, so either he renegotiates for less money and long term security or the Colts would have him on an entirely contingent basis, with no penalty to cut him if he's a problem at any time. He's worth looking at, but I wouldn't want to give them much for him, especially since that cap number would greatly limit his market. A 2018 3 that becomes a 2 if he makes the Pro Bowl sounds reasonable.

We don't know that the Colts will be running a 3-4 in 2018. It doesn't make sense to invest a lot into fixing that position for 2017.

It doesn't make sense to have Pagano as a lame duck coach

Apparently not.

The draft perhaps? All those guys either suck or arent true NTs, so nope.

Parry has played admirably, but we saw last year that he was beginning to wear down. I dont see him as a starter. A good rotational guy....not a starter.

Blue Thunder 03-25-2017 11:27 AM

It's been real quiet about Parry's situation. I may be wrong but it seems to me he's in quite a bit of trouble in Arizona. If he somehow escapes jail time he surely will get some sort of NFL induced suspension. Am I wrong thinking this way? If any of you know anymore I'd like to hear it. I'm not counting on him playing for the Colts this year.

Butter 03-25-2017 02:25 PM

I don't see how he escapes a few game suspension at the least,but the whole system the league has for punishment is mysterious.
