Another DE is off the market that I thought the Colts might go after once the Trey thing fell through

But this may mean the Eagles may be out on Sweat and/or Greenard

Let's do something Ballard You have some cap space.

Puck, from Ballards comment it seems he has done what he wants. He likes our guys and thinks they will take the next step and become monsters. Thinks the worst lineman (by PFF so I know) in the NFL was just used incorrectly so we will turn it around with him (like we have done with zero players). Typical bullshit from our GM (I'm still waiting for Kwitty ,Dayo's etc next step). What a shock.

I’d much rather have Paye and Ebukam than Key and Clemons. That’s an obvious downgrade in my opinion.

Ballard has a lot of work to do, that’s for sure.

That Ballard quote wasn't real.

Thanks, freaking AI. They nailed the sentiment however

Key is the Ebukam replacement, Clemons is the Tyquan Lewis replacement, and both are upgrades on the player they're replacing, as they're both younger and more productive at the respective roles they're being asked to do. Key's 11.2% pressure rate is much better than Ebukam's 9.8% rate, and in raw number terms he generated close to a pressure per game more than Ebukam. Clemons is a better run defender than Lewis and also generated a higher pressure rate. Key and Clemons also cost less than Paye combined.

I don't think the Colts have obtained their EDGE2 yet. There are still many options that would be an upgrade over Paye.

Ebukam was coming off a season ending injury last year. His career pressure rate is higher than 9.8.

I’m not sure where you got that Clemons is a better run defender than Lewis.

Clemons and Key are both downgrades from their predecessors or, at best, equal to them.

They’re in no way clearly better.
