Looks like Desir got a one year deal from the Jets at $3.75M, and could increase to $5.5M with incentives.

It will. This move was retarded

Unless they have something in the works where they needed the cap space it makes absolutely no sense.

I think it means the Colts might be moving more to man to man and less Zone. Desir was not very good in M2M

Just a thought

Wasn't Desir their Hopkins coverage specialist?

Wonder if tried to renegotiate? If he signed for $3.75M he might have stayed here for $4.25M ? :cool:

Even with the signing of Rhodes, having Desir on the roster as well would have been nice.

No kidding! That would have been serious depth.

Well Z. Keefer mentioned that the Colts were open to his return "if the opportunity presented itself" (tweet on first page of this thread)

In the past, if Ballard doesn't want to pay top dollar on a free agent contract, he usually tells the player / agent to go explore the open market and see what you can get. Then come back to the Colts before you sign and see if they want to match / beat. For instance, they did that with Geathers last year. If Desir had a sour taste from his release, maybe he didn't come back to Ballard after he scored the Jets offer.

Playing for the Jests is sour taste all by itself. :cool:

I think he gave up 105 yd in M2M against the chiefs last yr
