Would have liked to have seen an option year or two tacked on to the end of this deal, so we could keep him if he works out well. He's 6' 4" and 230 lbs, so he's definitely got size, but his production has only been so-so thus far.

That might have been Ballard’s preference, but it doesn’t really matter. Colts have the cap room to extend him if they choose to do so. That’s the benefit of not going crazy on a slew of free agents.

He can't be worse than Grant.

This does reek of the whole Donnie Avery/DHB/Hakeem Nicks/Andre Johnson/Ryan Grant inability to find a WR2 alongside Hilton.

Ballard and Reich just got their Alshon Jeffrey. Colts and Orioles, you have my permission to bump this at various points this season.

Meh, he is only 24, but he wasn't that great with Carolina. I think Luck is a better thrower than Cam and his numbers should go up some. 10 mill is a little high, but one year. Seems like a stop gap till one of the draft picks develop. I wonder if we will spend two picks on receivers again this year.

Funchess will get 60 catches, 800 yards, and 5 TDs next year, which is what Jeffrey has averaged over the last 4 seasons.
