Eaason is not the reason this team wont make the playoffs

WTF us up your ass? All I said was that it was a wasted pick. Maybe you disagree and think that a fourth round pick that plays in one game and shits his pants then gets canned is a good use of a fourth round pick. I don't and I don't mean a fucking thing more than that. You really are Ballards bitch if this bothers you. I would venture that Ballard would agree with me. I said nothing about this as a judgement on him as a GM. You took that all on your lonesome so you are arguing with no one. I happen to think Ballard is one of the best GMs in the business. This was a wasted pick.

I feel like I was in the minority but I thought Ehlinger looked better in preseason. As for a wasted pick, in hindsight Eason definitely was. I understand taking a flyer on a midround QB. Too bad it didn't work out.

Got your message late

Go back 25 years and look at the past draft picks. All the stats and analysis still come down to a judgement by a person. Easy to use hindsight, but from where we sit we do not have all of the info that a modern NFL franchise has at its fingertips.

Eason is headed back to Washington state. The Seahawks claimed him off the waiver wire.

Per Mike Garafolo, QB Jacob Eason has been claimed by the Seahawks.

Eason finds a 53-man roster home (on a team dealing with an injured QB) with his hometown team.

He's off to Seattle. That didn't take long. Good luck to him.

I agree, good luck to him .

I was an Eason fan before/when they drafted him But if he cant develop under Reich there is an issue.

IMO he wont last in Seattle either. Lots of talent no brain....

And fr all of you that were calling for Eason in the pre season..... Just sayin. As fans we know little about reality on the Colts and the NFL

I find it hard to blame Campbell on Ballard. He's been snake bitten in the NFL, but it's not like he's looked horrible the few times he's got to play, or that he was this real injury prone got in college that one had to worry about.

Campbell was a 2nd round pick.
