Remaining Free Agents
 
List of remaining free agents that I would like to see the Colts take a stab at:

DE Jadeveon Clowney

DT Mike Daniels
DT Shelby Harris
DT Damon Harrison
DT Timmy Jernigan
DT Derek Wolfe

WR Robby Anderson
WR Breshad Perriman
WR Devin Funchess
WR Rashard Higgins

TE Tyler Eifert

CB Ronald Darby

As you can see, I really want another NT/DT in the fold to go with Buckner, Autry and Stewart and a veteran WR to work in the mix with T.Y., Campbell, Pascal, Fountain and 1 or 2 rookie draft picks.

Clowney, Eifert and Darby are positions that I think we need more quality bodies at but I am not sure any of them are our thing.

Clowney will probably be too expensive (he is a talent) and I am not sure Eifert or Darby would be better than a 2nd/3rd/4th round rookie at the position.

Not much else out there, IMO.

I would like to have Robby Anderson, but the rumor is that he wants TY Hilton money or more. I'm not sure that would sit well with Hilton or the locker room, based on Anderson's production.

Ballard probably wouldn't go there.

FWIW - Seattle reportedly has offered Clowney a multi-year deal at $18.5MM per year.

From my story https://thenewstribune.com/sports/nf...241375251.html last night.

Nothing’s changed for #Seahawks and Jadeveon Clowney. Apparently $18.5M/yr in a multiyear from SEA. $3-5M less per year in a 1-year deal.

But they also just traded for Quenton Dunbar, who purportedly wants $10M+ a year, and according to Overthecap.com SEA only had $18.3 in cap space BEFORE the trade.

Dunbar is still under contract for this year. Seattle can ink an extension with him with the bigger money starting next year. Or they could tell him to wait. The local beat writers had also mentioned the possibility of cutting a few players, too, to create additional cap space.

Yeah, I suppose there could be ways around it with creative cap management, restructuring,etc. I just figured that Washington wouldn’t have traded him so cheaply if they thought he was willing to play for his scheduled $3.25M salary. Or perhaps Rivera is trying to create a new culture and wants to clear the locker room of malcontents.

I like shelby harris... he and Buckner would would make for a monster DL.

Robby Anderson to the Panthers per Rapoport and Mehta. I think several more WR's will be signing in the next few days.

Former #Jets WR Robby Anderson has a deal with the #Panthers, as MMehtaNYDN said. He get a 2-year deal worth $20M with $12M in year 1. A nice landing spot.

Yep. Ballard has talked about needing help at NT. Not as much as he discussed 3tech but its important. I still think they are working on Clowney.

Funchess won't be back - he agrees to terms with the Packers.

The #Packers are expected to sign WR Devin Funchess, per sources. A big body on the perimeter for Aaron Rodgers.

Perriman to Jets to replace Robby Anderson.

IMO they needed a FA and someone from the draft - especially if this is a supposed win now season. I don’t trust TY or Campbell to stay healthy. And I don’t trust rookie WRs to be major contributors.

Luck4Reich 03-25-2020 11:54 AM
Colts have a little over 28 million left. They must be targeting 1 or 2 more? But who?

Chromeburn 03-25-2020 02:11 PM
Going back to the Bears and their army of TEs. Rumor going around that we are interested in Trey Burton. He was good with the Eagles. So it makes sense Reich might like him.

Colt Classic 03-25-2020 08:23 PM
yeah, do that

My understanding it’s a one-year, $2.5 million deal for Devin Funchess with the #Packers — $1M signing bonus, $1.2M base salary, $50K workout bonus and $15,625 for each game active. Another $3.75M available in incentives, so max is $6.25M.

:cool:

Low risk high reward signing, think we should have done this :cool:

While I agree that I would feel better about a vet to start opposite T.Y.:

Pascal
Campbell
Fountain
2020 Rookie

That is 5 WR there that Ballard either drafted (Campbell, Fountain, 2020 Rookie) or proved last season they belong (T.Y., Pascal).

Except for Amari Cooper, who in this free agent class was a sure-fire starter opposite T.Y.? Anyone else is taking developmental time away from the young WRs.

Wonder what we offered him. Remember though, he was coming here for Andrew Luck, not Rivers and Brisket. I would probably go to GB too. Better chance of good numbers. He just has to beat Valdes Scantling to be the big guy.

The Bears are releasing Trey Burton so he can now be signed as a free agent.

Bears fans seem ok with this. The few games I saw of them it seemed like he was the only play-making receiver they had.:confused:

Ironshaft 04-18-2020 10:21 AM
Burton would be a good signing.

Good 2017 and 2018 before an injury ravaged 2019 season.

Type of vet signing along the lines of Carrier and Day. Solid guys who can contribute but will probably not be outstanding.

OJ Howard of Tampa is on the trade block. Doesn’t seem to fit the scheme there.

Maybe $3 to $5 million 2 year contract. No more than that though.

Michael Lombardi‏Verified account @mlombardiNFL · 24h24 hours ago

From talking to teams around the league 49ers want to clean up some cap issues and have made Dee Ford and Kwon Alexander along with Goodwin and Tartt available for trade. Will they get takers? Not sure but all four names are on the available list for the right price.

:cool:

More players available...Malik Hooker, Indy, PJ Hall Oakland, Rasul Douglas Phila, Adam Sheehan, Chicago. It's going to be a fun week.

:cool:

I think it's to soon to give up on this kid

I doubt they're giving up on him. With the safeties in this draft, it might be worthwhile to get a 1 for him and draft a Grant Delpit, for example.

I doubt get a 1 for him with his injury history, think he missed 14 out of 44.
Think if I had a 1 to give for Hooker, I would just draft McKinney or Delpit ? :cool:

Maybe some team really likes Hooker. Just because a guy is made available doesn't mean the asking price is reasonable.

Always liked the kid coming out of Ohio State, hope it's just a rumor. Personally don't want the Colts to move him. :cool:

It could just be speculation / rumor from Ballard's earlier comment about Hooker's 5th year option.

Ballard stated that no decision had been made yet and it wouldn't happen until after the draft. The deadline to exercise the option is May 4.

rcubed 04-21-2020 03:32 PM
Probably just floated out he is available to see if there is interest. If something significant were offered then they consider.
