He took a lot of crap for that contract but ended up being a solid, reliable guy on the field.

Thanks for the memories, Erik.

Yep. Don't let him leave without a contract, because if he does, with so many other teams interested, he won't be back.

Ballards history with him is a plus, IMO.

Yeah. If he gets this one wrong it'll be hard to trust his judgement on anything. For now there's no reason to doubt whatever choice he makes here.

That was probably the first tell, when Pagano/Grigson brought over guys they were familiar with (Zbikowski, Winston Justice, etc) and they sucked.

Good point. It happened multiple times with both.

Justice, McGlynn, Cole, Herremans for Grigson. Zbikowski, McKinney, Jones for Pagano. Was Redding really the only guy from the group that worked out?

I'm trying to think, when was the last time the Colts had a DT who made a pro bowl at some point in his career? Cory Simon? Did Booger ever make a pro bowl? I'm fairly certain Raheem Brock never did.

Someone help me out, I'm drawing a blank here.

Edit-Tommy Harris did, but never played a regular season game in Indy.

Old QBs can take one hit and then never be the same. Look how quickly PM dropped off late in 2014. Counting on Brady to be great very much longer is a big ????
