1 00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:03,960 Speaker 1: Well, it's always dangerous to play the old podcast game 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: during a free agency, but I guess we'll attend something 3 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 1: here on Monday afternoon. 4 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:09,559 Speaker 2: I'm Kevin Bowen. 5 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,639 Speaker 1: This is another edition of Colt's Corner with myself, Kevin 6 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 1: Bowen and a little emergency pod here. Eddie and Ile 7 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: regroup at some point this week, and so we sit 8 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 1: here right now. A trade of Ziara Franklin. You know, 9 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: Michael Pittman Junr just got traded as well. Alec Pierce 10 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 1: back on a four year daily expectations, Daniel Jones will 11 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: be back. You know, I still think the Colts want 12 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 1: to try and do something of note in the defensive front, 13 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: you know, again, continuing to try and create cap space. 14 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 2: And give yourself in a position to do that. 15 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 1: Will certainly be a question here, but you know they 16 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,639 Speaker 1: have already started to do that a little bit here 17 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: this offseason. So yeah, I guess I'll just kind of 18 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: go over all the moves so far in chronological order 19 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: as best we can hit a couple of squitter questions again, 20 00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,959 Speaker 1: the time sensitivity of the podcast, I want to get 21 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: something up. I realize things can fully changed pretty pretty quickly, 22 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: but I had a chance to kind of catch my 23 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: breath after posting a few things, and thought, all right, 24 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: let's do a little. 25 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 2: Quick podcast here. 26 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: So, you know, going back to the Franklin trade, I 27 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: think when you guys heard you know, Chris Ballard on 28 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,279 Speaker 1: with us last week and you know, asked him that 29 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,759 Speaker 1: that question about, you know, will Zia Franklin be back, 30 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: I just never got the impression that he was going 31 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: to be back really this season. And you know it's funny. 32 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: We had Stephen Holder on our show last week and 33 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: I threw four names at Steve, and I think Eddie 34 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,199 Speaker 1: united this exercise on the podcast. You know, Michael Pittman, Junior, 35 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce, Zire, Franklin, kennymore than second? Do you feel 36 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: like how many of those four do you feel like 37 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:39,960 Speaker 1: would be back? 38 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 2: And you know, again I think I said Eddie, I 39 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 2: was closer to two than four. 40 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: And you know, as we sit here right now, that's 41 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: what we're looking at is, you know, two gone. And 42 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: obviously Pierce kept he was the one that had to 43 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: make the decision himself. So let's go back to Saturday 44 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: and the Zira trade. You know the fact that they 45 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: got some cap relief I thought was notable. That's kind 46 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: of curious what you would net with that. And you know, 47 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: in Colby Wooden's case, you know, especially with the Neville 48 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: Gallimore signing with the Bears, I think a guy that 49 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: could be your top defensive tackle in rotating and you 50 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: just need some insurance with the Forest Buckner in that net. 51 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: I think that's really important to keep on pointing out 52 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 1: the injuries have started to pile up from him and 53 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 1: so you know, getting a little bit of depth there 54 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: is necessary. Now there is zero pass rush really to 55 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: Wooden's game whatsoever, so early down, rotational run defender. That's 56 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: kind of how I view him. And obviously you just 57 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: need snap counts. You know, you are without I think two, six, 58 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: seven and eight in snap counts I believe is the 59 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: free agent list on your defensive line. Obviously a lot 60 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: of those are a defensive end. But again Gallimore is 61 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 1: now going and I thought he actually had a nice year, 62 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: so you know, whatever poor man's quitty page ball sheared 63 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 1: more as an interior guy of course, but that's kind 64 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: of how I view him. And again, the cap savings 65 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: from a cappit standpoint, you're talking what ond seven million 66 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: for him now as far as linebacker. You know, again, 67 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: Zara Franklin tip of the cap, I mean, an excellent, 68 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: excellent draft pick. 69 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: I mean, unbelievable what he turned into. But I think 70 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 2: it was just kind of time. 71 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: And you know when you see like Ryan Kelly have 72 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: his retirement over the weekend, you know, I'd say the 73 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: same thing about Ryan Kelly. You know, again, a really 74 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: good draft pick, really solid player for you, but it 75 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: was probably time. Now you don't have the Tanner BORDERLINI 76 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: necessarily sitting there at linebacker. You know, how early do 77 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: you go in the draft for that? Is that the 78 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: route you go is Jermaine Pratt coming back? You know, 79 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: that is I think a weirdly kind of a key 80 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: free agent decision now here for the Colts. 81 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: And you know who's going to be that green dot guy? 82 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you got to go back to what Bibi 83 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: Kaka and Darius lenderd in twenty twenty one. I think 84 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: the last time you had a green dot that wasn't 85 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: you know Ziah Franklin as a QB signal caller. But 86 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: supposedly it's a good linebacker draft class. And you know, 87 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: again he had a dip and play news system New coordinator. 88 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going to rank the podcast stuff very high, 89 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: but you know that probably wasn't ideal. Again, in a 90 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: perfect world, you'd had some younger dudes they're ready to 91 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: pass the torch to, but you don't. So you know, 92 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: what they do at linebacker definitely is going to be 93 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: something to keep an eye on, you know, as far 94 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: as I guess they re signed, but I think we 95 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: had a Twitter question about Blake Groupy, so I might 96 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: just wait there. I guess I'll jump to Pierce. You 97 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: know again, when you hurt him on with k Adams 98 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: last week. I think a lot of people understandably read 99 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: the quotes and said to themselves, this does not sound 100 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: like the Colts, And indeed it didn't sound like the Colts. 101 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: You know, QB play winning, culture, franchise stability, however you 102 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: want to label those comments, Pierce May Now, I don't 103 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: know if I had the chance to say it on 104 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: the podcast, but on our morning show tried to reiterate 105 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: to people. I don't think this is as grim as 106 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: it sounds. I think he is a huge Daniel Jones believer, 107 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: and I think he feels like something can happen here 108 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: positively from a team standpoint, and I even said it 109 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: on our Monday morning show of like, I don't think 110 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: two to three million more elsewhere is going to make 111 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: him jump. Now, you put the right quarterback, and maybe 112 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: that could lead to him leaving. But I just felt 113 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: like he always kind of wanted to be back here. Now, 114 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: you never truly know what that open market is going 115 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: to be. So that's why I think when you leave 116 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: the ball kind of in anybody's court, there is some 117 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: unknown there of exactly what it's going to look like. 118 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: Look at Mooney War last year. You know, all of 119 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 1: a sudden he hits free agency, the Saints think he 120 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: has and the Colts up the offer, and then boom, 121 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: he goes to Indianapolis. You just never know how players 122 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: will react to that. You know, as far as Pierce 123 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 1: versus Pittman to me, if you want to call whatever 124 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: both of them overpaid, I'd rather overpay for the young 125 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: home run hitter than the older, more methodical white out. Now, 126 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: I'll be curious what the Colts do it wide out 127 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: moving forward. I get the impression that they maybe are 128 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: a little bit more content. I mean, we'll see how 129 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: the rest of the off season plays out. But like, basically, 130 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't think they're rushing into try and find a 131 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: wide out right away. You know, more on the plate 132 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,679 Speaker 1: of fashion duel, and more on the plate of Tyler 133 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: Warren certainly as a methodical pass catcher. And really we 134 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: are seeing a little bit of a different Chris Ballard 135 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: now necessary to part ways with some of the guys 136 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: that he resigned. But that's a little different, you know, 137 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: in in what we are seeing here. You know, in 138 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: terms of Pierce, you just you can't be lateral. You 139 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: can't be a horizontal offense. You can't play half court offense. 140 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 1: He has a cove to trade. The defenses are desperate 141 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: to take away, and he opens things up for you. 142 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: And if you're gonna pay the boring positions, if you will, 143 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: you better play pay the electrifind white out. 144 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: And now the question because can he. 145 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: Do a little bit more, you know, can he make 146 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 1: more of those Seattle plays with Philip Rivers third and seven, 147 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: back shoulder come back, because that stuff should be there. 148 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: You know, it was twenty five years old, no major 149 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: injury history. I mean, that's just it's just hard to replace, 150 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: you know. I thought back to a conversation we had 151 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: with Rick Ventury. I'll probably play the audio on our 152 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: morning show coming up on Tuesday. But you know we 153 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 1: had Rick on the final day we were at training 154 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: camp this year at Grand Park, Bernard Rayman had just 155 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: signed his extension, and I think there was a little 156 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: bit of a conversation at that time, not very loud 157 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: of you know, is there anybody else that you would 158 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: want to see get done extension wise? And that is 159 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: where Pierce kind of crept into my mind. Now, the 160 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: question I threw to Rick Ventury on that day was simply, this, 161 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: would you rather have Alec Pierce on a second contract 162 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: or would you rather have Michael Pittman Junior on a 163 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 1: third contract? And this is at the time with Terry 164 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: mclaurin's situation was playing out. McLaurin did the shorter second contract, 165 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: thinking he'd hit the open market one more time and 166 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: cash in. 167 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 2: That was kind of Pittman thought. 168 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: And so when you got into that debate, that to 169 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: me was that was a Pierce answer even before the 170 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: season started, Like if you asked me to pick right 171 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: then and there, not as convict, not as filled with conviction, 172 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: I should say, as I as I am now. Of course, 173 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: on it watching Pierce and Pittman both play out the 174 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: seasons they just did. But even then I think, you 175 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: you know, just kind of arrows and again who was 176 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: easier to replace. 177 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: Now I've obviously been a Pittman fan, and you know. 178 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: His durability and just I just love how he just 179 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: plays the game. And you know, sadly we can probably 180 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,959 Speaker 1: retire the UFC pretty boy comment. Boy doesn't he fit 181 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 1: the Steelers? I mean, isn't that like the perfect Steelers 182 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: white out? Michael Pittman JUNR. I certainly thought about that 183 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: when the trade happened, so, you know, getting Pierce rounded 184 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 1: out more of it, Tyler Warren not hitting that late 185 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: rookie wall. Obviously, Daniel Jones you think theoretically would be healthier. 186 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 1: I think that contributed to some of it, But again 187 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: how dueling. I think Lakwan Treadwell still in a contract. Obviously, 188 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: Anthony Gould's not really that type of white out. You 189 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: still have Josh Downs of course, but again more the 190 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: outside white out, so you can still allow for Pierce 191 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 1: to you know, run his home run routes. So That's 192 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: probably where I'm at now kind of moving forward as 193 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: we look at the rest of the week. You know, 194 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: I still look at defensive end getting a significant portion here. 195 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 1: You know, as we record right now, there's still some 196 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: high profile defensive ends out there, you know, linebacker to me, 197 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: I think you could get by with a Pratt, you know, 198 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: car Lizon, year three slash round two or round three 199 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: draft pick. Obviously you're gonna put a lot on that 200 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: rookie's plate to come in here and instantly impact. But again, 201 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: you can't do everything. You know, the Braden Smith thing 202 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: is still a passing of the church to nit Cross 203 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: or to Jayalen Travis, and then of course knit Cross 204 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: obviously remains a free agent as we as we record 205 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,679 Speaker 1: this now. But you know, those are probably some things 206 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: that I'm kind of looking at here now moving forward. 207 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,839 Speaker 1: You know, are there any others from a restructure standpoint, 208 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: from a cap space standpoint before you have to get 209 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 1: cap compliant, you know, by four o'clock and you know, 210 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: just kind of a brief look around the AFC, you know, 211 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: the Travis etn him moving I think is of note 212 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: for Jacksonville. You know, you look at the Ravens and 213 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, both of them kind of had some splashy 214 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: you know, moves with what you know, Kenneth Walker going 215 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: to the Chiefs and obviously what the Ravens have done 216 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 1: with Max Crosby. 217 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 2: And those are two teams that have great, great. 218 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks and both both missed the playoffs this past season, 219 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: so they're kind of in the same boat there with 220 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: the Colts. But you know, probably safe to say you 221 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: would bet on them a little bit more. So, you know, 222 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: be curious how the rest of the week unfolds. What 223 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: exactly does the Jones deal look like, what does the 224 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: salary cap. 225 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: Hit on that? 226 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: And then you know, just from a starter standpoint, we're 227 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: gonna have a running article up on want to some 228 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: by the fan just update you on all the Colts moves, 229 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, even some of the little stuff the Blake 230 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: groupie coming back. If you look at their starters, you know, 231 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: again Jones a free agent, Pierce a free agent, Moiley 232 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: Cox a free agent, Braden Smith a free agent, quit 233 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: He Pay a free agent, Jermaine Proud of free agent, 234 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: neck Cross a free agent. That's about seven starters. So again, 235 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: how you kind of go about bringing back how many 236 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: of them do you bring back? And then if you don't, 237 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: you know, how do you go about trying to replace 238 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: all that playing time. Just a couple of brief Twitter 239 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: questions to get to here, Alex, please get Tyler Warren 240 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,719 Speaker 1: number forty four. I think that's the real reasons they 241 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: air got got traded. Yeah's that's a great point. 242 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: I think. 243 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,319 Speaker 1: I think Tyler Warren looked pretty good in forty four, 244 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: assuming he goes, I'd say that number, although you know, 245 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: eighty four from Jack Oldham. I also thought I had 246 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 1: a pretty good look to it, you know, just a 247 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: big second year for Warren. Just again in that methodical 248 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: nature of that passing offense, maybe you feel like, hey, 249 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: we can get. 250 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 2: By a little bit wide out. 251 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: You know, I always felt like edge linebacker right there 252 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: on day two. I can listen to wide out on 253 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: day two. Don't think it's a must right now, but 254 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: I can definitely listen to it, you know there and 255 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: round two or round three. But a lot will depend 256 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: on what you've done at defensive end and what you 257 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: do at linebacker here the rest of free agency, because 258 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: to me, with defensive end especially you got a double dip. 259 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 2: I think you need to spend notably here in free agency. 260 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: But then I also think you got to come back 261 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: with a somewhat premium draft pick. Drew wants to talk 262 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: about Spencer Schrader. How's he doing with his rehab? I 263 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: know Blake Groupie is back. I thought Spencer said that 264 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: he should be kicking full go by training camp. Again, 265 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: that was an ACL and MCL maybe even do a 266 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: little bit of kicking here in the spring. So you know, 267 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: I have to look more than the guarantees on it. 268 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: I don't. 269 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: I would assume Trader's probably not guaranteed for twenty twenty 270 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: six contractually, and obviously group he had a great year 271 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: and Groupy's been a kicker for three years in the NFL. Now, 272 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 1: I think they're very intrigued by Strader, and he's got 273 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: a booming leg and you know this and that. But 274 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: again and he just really didn't get many opportunities from 275 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,679 Speaker 1: North to fifty before he got hurt there, so I 276 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: think that would be honestly kicker my where they're the 277 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: deepest on the roster. 278 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: So again, want to SUPI find the fan dot com. 279 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: Everything will be up there from a free agency standpoint, 280 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,599 Speaker 1: Eddie and I will come back at some point a 281 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: little bit later to kind of recap things, but definitely 282 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure got something up from a podcast 283 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 1: since today before it gets too too crazy in this 284 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: So with me signing off, probably que some more Colts 285 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: News items to happen. So Kevin Bowen here Colt's Corner 286 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: with myself, Kevin Bowen. Thanks everybody for listening and we 287 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: will be back with you soon
