We have seen the last of this man. He had a good run but has become injury prone and expensive. Ballard is brilliant at finding offensive linemen in the middle rounds.

Braden Smith has been going through it for a few years now. He's made his money, and should retire and live a comfortable life. Enjoy family life.

Yeah, Smith had a good run but I’ll echo others who’ve said maybe he should call it quits.

An early retire? Well, he's familiar with jumping the gun. He's been a very good RT, but he's had an abundance of illegal procedures in his career.

So did Tarik Glenn, but he was a very good Tackle.

Many of Tarik Glenn's false starts were indeed false calls. He was just quicker than all the other O-linemen off the snap, fooling the ref's into bad calls.

Every tackle has false starts, it's the nature of the game. Smith has been a very good right tackle, and has played decently this year. But he has had his injuries, struggling with his knee the last few years, so it wouldn't be a surprise if he retired. But i also wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to stay with the Colts on a friendly deal as he has this year.
