As it should be.

Love what Mike has done for us but if he is higher than 4th on our safety depth chart signed for vet min then we did something wrong.

You just cannot sign a non-kicker 35 year old player early in free agency.

You know, I almost added QB to kicker in my post and then decided to not in order to give someone the righteous feeling of correcting me

You, Sir, win the prize. Well done.

There are a lot of needs for the Colts to address, and those needs are primarily on the defensive side of the football. That doesn’t mean they won’t address the offensive side, however, and Yahoo Sports’ Charles Robinson today provided an update on some offensive areas the Colts might go after.

According to Robinson, the Colts will be one of the teams to pursue a top guard in free agency, while they’ve also been exploring the backup quarterback market.

Robinson clarified later that the top four guards in free agency are viewed to be Kevin Zeitler, T.J. Lang, Ronald Leary, and Larry Warford. Any of those guys would be able to help the Colts talent-wise, especially since things are still uncertain on the right side of the line. Chris Ballard has been pretty clear about the fact that he likes Anthony Castonzo, Jack Mewhort, and Ryan Kelly up front, but he’s been less committal about the right side. He’s mentioned that they need to shore up that side of the line and has had some positive things to say about Joe Haeg and Le’Raven Clark, but nothing that would give the impression that they’ll for sure be starting. A lot of that surely depends on who the Colts add this offseason, which might be why Ballard hasn’t really been committal yet.

Interesting, though I'm liking this.

I'll take an insanely good OL in front of Luck.

I never complain with adding oline talent

Great player. Better than I thought he'd be. I don't trust him to not make bad decisions though.

Brandon Marshall joined Nick Mangold, Darrelle Revis and others on the Jets’ discard pile on Thursday and the team’s culling of veterans after a dismal 2016 season may not be complete.

Marshall’s running mate at wideout Eric Decker could join them on the chopping block. Manish Mehta and John Healy of the New York Daily News report that it won’t be a surprise if Decker is released upon passing a physical this offseason. Dropping Decker from the roster would save the Jets $5.75 million under the cap.

When a physical might happen is unclear as Decker is recovering from hip and shoulder surgeries that are expected to keep him on the sideline through much or all of the team’s offseason work.

Whether his absence turns out to be permanent or temporary, the Jets are going to be giving young receivers like Robby Anderson, Quincy Enunwa, Devin Smith, Charone Peaks and Jalin Marshall plenty of opportunities in an offseason of major change.

Anyone want anybody from the Jets purge?

Brandon Marshall is a pain in the ass and he's lost a step. Pass.

Nick Mangold would've been fine in years past, but has he ever played a position besides Center? If they think he'll play Guard well then sure, but there's robust enough of a Guard market that moving him to there seems like a move that would probably be too much work when I'm sure he could find a Center position elsewhere.

Darrelle Revis is completely done as a CB and might only work as a Safety. We do have a need at Safety and we have been trotting out older than average Safeties for the past couple years but does anyone trust Revis to totally buy into Pagano's program? Neither do I.

I'll take Decker if he can clear a physical. Yes, I know we have ample investment in Hilton/Moncrief/Dorsett. But what did Moncrief really show in 2016? What has Dorsett ever shown ever? Having a WR that knows where he's supposed to be would be kind of nice. It's moot, however, because it's not going to happen. Decker's not coming to a team with a WR room as crowded as ours and Ballard certainly isn't investing enough money in Decker to sway him otherwise.

Dude, the jizz is still not dry on your chin from last time Decker was a FA. He is not going to be a Colt. He is not worth what he is getting paid now. Let it go.

Which I freely acknowledged in my post.

He would've better than Hakeem Nicks/Andre Johnson/Dorsett, that's for sure.

It doesn't take much to be smarter than Grigson, but those that blindly trusted in him are the ones that deserve even more scrutiny, not those that could point out that he sucked.
