I won’t blame him for leaving. Unless the team offers more money than competitors why would he choose this organization? The consistent mediocrity? The other option is they clean house and you have no idea what you are getting. Ballard screwed up when AP wasn’t tagged. If some teams want to throw big money at DJ then so be it. He’s proven nothing IMO. DJ has more reason to believe the Colts are the right fit for him than AP does.

Holder explained it like this-the Colts have decided that Jones is their guy going forward, whether we like it or not. Once they made that decision, the choice of who to tag became clear, just based on the positional value. You make sure you keep your starting quarterback first, then the wide receiver.

If you view it through that lens, they made the right choice. It also tells us that a long term deal with Jones is still coming, regardless of whether they are able to keep Pierce.

As someone who does not think Jones is the answer at quarterback, I think they’re nuts.

Bingo. I would keep Pierce and give Leonard a legit shot. What do we have to lose? Jones scares me more than Leonard does. Get hurt again? Revert back to his Giants days? If Jones is the final answer, it better be an incentive loaded deal.

That’s the one and only upshot of all of this. If we trade AR and roll with Jones, we’ll get to see Leonard in action at some point because Jones will get hurt. That’s almost guaranteed.

I would have cut Pittman and signed AP.

Buffalo is over the cap, ATM

Good people of Coltfreaks, let me introduce you to the very worst GM in the NFL today, tomorrow, and forever hereafter.

Chris Ballard is without question an incompetent fucking stooge.

I guess he made some comments at the combine about fans on the internet talking shit but not having the courage to say shit to his face. Hilarious, fucking hilarious that the GM of a multi-billion dollar organization would spew that type of juvenile shit. Tells you everything you ever need to know at just how fully inept he really is.

We are fucked beyond comprehension.

I was never on the "I hate Ballard" bandwagon that your were driving, but this latest move of giving Jones a guaranteed 37 million and thus sealing the fate of Pierce going to greener pastures, has me on board.

FUCK CHRIS BALLARD!

Pierce would be retarded to come back here, and we're retarded for not tagging him.

When does it fucking stop? These clowns do their best to ruin a glass half full attitude.
