If we don’t pay him, what are we replacing his production with? I know you don’t get better getting rid of talent.

Vick Ballard, though, was a pretty good pick in the 5th round. He looked like he could be our starter going forward until he blew his ACL in 2013 and then his Achilles in 2014. Never could make it back. Quote:
Hypothetically... does Zack Moss + Deon Jackson + a rookie + the cap benefit of all three together being 1/4 the potential cost of Jonathan Taylor outweigh the monster production we've seen JT can have + huge cap hit + the risk RB's have of falling off a cliff. I love JT, but other dudes get paid to do that math (which I butchered above). |
Almost every team has a running back on their roster, that you think is "ok". They are easy to find, i suspect you could almost take 32 RB's out of this draft alone and they could all be productive given a free shot at the starting role. But the special ones are harder to find, but then cost a lot more. RB's that can be on the field for all 3 downs are getting rarer and rarer.

JT was very underwhelming as a pass blocker last season...and that's being kind. In his previous seasons he was merely adequate. There is also the fact that JT gets pulled in passing situations. If he wants to get paid he needs to become a complete back. |

I love the Edge, from pass blocking to taking a cab to preseason camp in Terra Haute. Taylor is a different guy and he helps the Colts more by carrying the ball F |

I don’t think Ballard had a talent issue. A better argument is a guy like Duron Carter, but for everyone like him - there’s a Mike Hart who I felt probably could have done more in the right situation. |

I still keep Nelson. He is a great player. He is the best Colts guard, Ive seen. Dumping talent doesn't make sense. He rebounds and has a great season, it will benefit the team. Get him healthy, and the Colts will run left all day long. Let Raimann learn from the best. Get Nelson healthy and lean on his Leadership. What he can do, when healthy, cant be measured by analytics. Its football, where 11 guys working together make it happen. Its not baseball, were one guy has a big impact |
