Colts not re-signing Mike Adams
Not a big surprise, but it's official.
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ck-mike-adams/ Good player for a few years, just too old at this point. One of Grigson's best moves. Good luck Mike. |

Colts are also (probably) not bringing back Josh McNary or Zach Kerr:

After a guy is non-tendered, it's usually a pretty good indication that they're probably going to head elsewhere, though there are exceptions and sometimes they find their way back. In all cases, be it Mike Adams, Zach Kerr, or Josh McNary, I think it's best to move on and find someone else for their positions. |

For McNary, he can go.
For Kerr, mildly surprised, he wasn't terrible, I'm guessing Ballard has a plan for the d-line though. For Adams, thanks for 3 good years, but it's probably time to move on. |

And the fact that bringing in a 33 year old safety that did a good, but not spectacular job was one of his greatest moves, kinda says it all.

I think you forget about some other very good moves... Trading for Davis, Trading up for TY, resigning Wayne, resigning Mathis bringing in Gore, drafting Moncreif. Finding Freeman drafting Andersen Geathers and Kelly Yea ther were mistakes but its not like he never got anything right. And dont't forget your new man cruch on Ballard could end up biting you in the ass if he doesn't produce and produce NOW. Remember he hasnt done anything yet

Grigson had some good moves. If anything I thought he was showing some signs of improvement. It just wasnt' enough to outweigh his bad moves and terrible personality.

look at their stats 2014 Bethea: 86 tackles, 1 sack, 10 passes defensed, 4 INTs, probowl (set a career high in INT return yardage) Adams: 87 tackles, 0 sack, 11 passes defensed, 5 INTs, probowl That is a roughly equivalent season 2015, Bethea torn a pectoral muscle and went on IR after 7 games. This works out for us since Adams was healthy, but you never know if that injury would have happened if Bethea was in Indy. Adams also missed 3 games this year. I report stats per game below because of this: Bethea: 6.3 tackles per game, .14 sack per game, .29 passes defensed per game, 0 INTs Adams: 4 tackles per game, .08 sack per game, .46 passes defensed per game, .38 INT per game. (probowl) So a better year for Adams in terms of pass defense and INTs and of course games played, but Bethea still was playing well. 2016: Bethea: 95 tackles (Career high), 0 sack, 3 pass defense, 1 INT Adams: 62 tackles, 0 sack, 2 pass defense, 2 INT Bethea is still producing, Adams wasn't terrible, but barring injury, Bethea looks to have had the slightly better stats over the last 3 years. Again I think there was value in keeping some of the old guard around. But it seems Grigson wanted those guys gone. |

Heh, I get flamed for being too anti-Grigson and it turns out I was giving him credit for a move that wasn't even a very good one. |
