For you guys that watch the line, how has Kelly looked? I haven't heard much about him, which could be a good thing.

I guess I'm a little higher on this team than most. I've been excited about the play of several guys on defense, Leonard, Skai Moore, Desir, Geathers, Hooker, Kenny Moore, Autry, Ridgeway, Roches and DeLaire.

My surprise cuts on the defensive side of the ball, are Najee Goode, Grover Stewart, Margus Hunt. Just prefer to go with the young guys.

Offensively, I believe health is the biggest issue, other than WR. A healthy Luck, Hilton, Castonzo, Good and Mack will be needed.

Also, I don't believe offensively the Colts or Luck, have just Let er' Rip in any way shape or form during this preseason. The reasons are twofold, to save Luck's arm for the regular season, and to not show teams that Luck can and will throw deep, as well as not exposing our offensive scheme.

I think the OL will be fine with AC back, Slauson at RG and settling on any RT not named Austin Howard.

Now on to the piss poor WR position. After TY this group may be long on potential, but they are short on being NFL ready. Grant is a JAG and never should be a starting WR.

My call out to Ballard...PLEASE! PLEASE! trade for a WR. Luck is locking on to Hilton too much, and we need someone else that can occasionally win their one on one match ups and don't have to be constantly schemed open.

Apparently the Broncos are very high on their 2 rooks, Sutton and Hamilton, so I would make a play for either D. Thomas or E. Sanders.

For WR if they're all just average, why not put that guy Fountain up there at #2? He's got size at least. Let the others figure out who is #3 and #4.

But, has he stood out anymore than the rest of the lot? A few of them have had their moments. I just believe that none of them have earned anything, as of yet.

Lets not forget Hilton disappears for weeks at a time too.

I’m disappointed Rogers hasn’t seperated himself so far. Never expected anything from Grant. Lots of 2 TE in our future this year.

Sucks that Deon Cain got injured. I think he would-have really made a solid contribution.

I haven’t worried about Lucks arm since the red zone int he threw against Baltimore. It was a bad throw but it was also a rocket.

But we knew that already. Philadelphia loves to use their TEs in the passing game. Ebron and Doyle might be the team's second and third best receivers anyway.
