Aiken Highlights

Ravens fans were definitely likening him to Boldin in 2015. Though how much is just the same thing as Colts fans likening any white WR to Brandon Stokley, who knows.

Regardless, he's a more physical receiver than anything else the Colts have. Plus, he can fill a role on special teams. Nice get.

Man, T.Y. already brings his "A" games every season.

I really hope the competitive juices get Aiken, Moncrief, Dorsett and Rogers to bring their "A" games as well. We need more production out of all the WRs after Hilton.

2016:

91 receptions = T.Y. Hilton, WR
59 receptions = Jack Doyle, TE
38 receptions = Frank Gore, RB
35 receptions = Dwayne Allen, TE
33 receptions = Phillip Dorsett, WR
30 receptions = Donte Moncrief

You cannot have only one of your top 4 pass catchers be a WR. That is allowing opposing defenses to tighten up nearer to the LoS and choke everything off. Your WRs have got to be better.

I really love this signing.

Cheers,

I trust TY to play at a high level. Nothing left for him to prove at this point.

I liked the way Rogers played last season and want to see him get more opportunities.

I like what this new guy brings in terms of physical toughness, willing attitude, competitiveness. We haven't had a physical, productive receiver since Garcon.

I haven't written Moncrief off at all. He played well in 2015 and played injured in 2016.

The only one I don't expect anything from is Dorsett. Hopefully he will surprise but he doesn't play that fast, his routes are limited and sloppy, and he drops balls. Seems like the pieces are in place to push him off the roster altogether.

I wouldn't go as far to push him off the roster. Dorsett is still a deep threat as the very least. Imagine how bogged down the offense would be if TY were hurt and you only had Moncrief/Aiken/Rogers.

So he's a whiny kid, but when Allen bitched about how may targets he got a few years ago, you conveniently don't remember that?

Aiken may not do much. But, I think Dorsett better start working now, because he ain't staying on the team at WR-5.

Nope. Don't remember that.

Can't trust highlights

I hope he works out though.

Sounds like Kamar Aiken's 1_year deal with Colts was for about 2.6 mill with $1.5 mill guaranteed. And 600k in per game roster bonuses
