Kenny Moore to be traded

[Mr. Session]

Walley must be fucking incredible.

I lean with the philosophy that when you have a player that has a strength, the coach needs to identify how to engage that in their scheme. Empower the player.

We all should have learned this when they asked Freeney to stand up and play outside linebacker. Mathis was more naturally suited for that, and the question about him turned into "What if he was playing this position his entire career?". Pagano failed Freeney, and Freeney was still a highly productive player that almost won the Falcons a fucking superbowl.

I perceived Moore to be a leader based on how he carried himself. He doesn't believe in the coaching or the organization, because I find it hard to believe he wasn't going to make the team.

I believe Walley will play better this season than Kenny, and I like Kenny. Barring injury of course.

It sounds like a little bit of everything. Doesn't sound like a disgruntled player, doesn't sound like a disgruntled coach/scheme, doesn't sound like a desperation for cap relief or draft capital...

So considering they seem to really like Walley, and Ballard specifically highlighted the defense's age and speed being an issue...

Both sides probably know that Moore won't be part of the equation after this final year of his contract, anyway. So if the Colts are comfortable with the young guy and can get something for Moore, and Moore can possibly get himself a couple more years somewhere else...

That's what it sounds like to me. Also isn't a guarantee that Moore/Colts get an offer they like.

Yeah, seems to be amicable. Guessing Kenny realizes he's not getting an extension and looking to move to a team that would be willing to give him one.

I do think it's concerning that we're going to be relying on a bunch of young guys coming off of season ending injuries who haven't played a down in the NFL.

I agree, on paper i think that we are absolutely fine at corner, with Gardner, Ward, Walley, Blackmon, Taylor-Britt, Edwards, Mitchell and Jones, if they all stay healthy then things are probably good for the season. But if we lose Ward, if Walley isn't fully recovered, or doesn't quite live up to the expectations from last preseason, then we are in deep trouble.

It doesn't look so good if the corners are Gardner, Blackmon, Taylor-Britt, Edwards and Mitchell, Jones!

Another thing is, how many of these guys can actually play the slot? Most of them are more outside guys. Maybe we will use more safeties in the slot this year, so Wohler or Thomas.

On top of that, Jaylon Jones, didn't seem to fit into Lou's plans, and Taylor-Brit was awful last year.

[Oldcolt]

We have no quality depth. That usually comes from developing draft choices but we have missed on all of our defensive backs since Ballard got here for one reason or another. If Walley is actually above average it will be the first cornerback we have drafted in years that is. Ward is one concussion away from retiring according to him. Pretty good chance he does.Our back ups are all castoffs or people only die hard Colt fans have even heard of. Lets hope we don't get any major injuries.

if your scheme doesn't fit one of the best pass rushers to ever do it, your scheme is stupid

Taylor Britt played very good under Lou Anarumo, last season he had off the field issues and once again the Bengals defense was terrible with a glaring weakness at pass rush. Deion Sanders can’t cover guys for 7 seconds.

Taylor Britt is a great insurance policy for Ward and also Walley

I like the fact that you are apparently highly skilled at deductive thinking, and the process of elimination. )
