Always know you'll need someone to take snaps in the interior three spots, especially with Kelly's injury history. (No, I don't think Boehm could do it for more than 2-3 games.)
I could see a rt landing in the draft for us and moving smith to guard.

PFF had Glowinski rated as the 10th best OG this season. I think that is probably a bit high but I do think he was a quality starting OG during 2018 so I would probably rate him somewhere between 15 and 35. For comparision, they rated Nelson the 4th best OG in the league.

His $6m cap hit for 2019 would currently be tied with Zack Martin (DAL) and Joe Bitonio (CLE) for 16th / 17th / 18th highest in the league.

I think he is getting paid pretty well for a starting OG with one year of quality service under his belt. I think this is both a fair price and a great move by Ballard.

Not to toon my own horn (which I am totally doing), from the "Colts Own Free Agents" thread:
Quote:
- OG Mark Glowinski (27). My top free agent re-signing priority as he has really found a home in Indy. Rated the #10 OG by PFF, Glowinski obviously performed fantastically in our offense and I believe he has earned a veteran contract in return for both his performance and his potential to get better with a full off-season with us. Top OGs in the league are making in excess of $10m a year and while I don't think he is there, he should get paid well as I think he is a valuable building block going forward. OGs cap hits between #10 highest and #20 highest are between $7.750m and $5.450m so I think a 3-year, $18m contract at $6m a year seems about right for him. It puts him in the top half of the top paid 32 OGs in the league, is a massive upgrade in the amount of money than he has ever received previously, a nice reward for 1 year of service but also a reminder that it is only 1 year of service at top levels. He will still be able to sign another veteran contract at age 30 if he is still performing at high levels.
Ballard, give me a job!

Walk Worthy,

Walk Worthy,

Well done Sherck - you nailed it!

As with all NFL contracts, the details will tell us more about how the Colts see Glowinski - the guarantees, cap hits, roster bonuses, etc. Looks like Glowinski got a $4.2 million signing bonus.

With many of the other Colts signings, little was guaranteed after the first year and the Colts could move on after a year without consequence if the player didn't play up to expectations. Not sure Ballard will be able to convince some of the in house free agents to accept such deals, or any big name free agents.

$5.7 million is guaranteed, $4.2 million signing bonus

@JoelAErickson

$1.5 base salary in '19, signing bonus spread over three years, so that's $2.9, although there might be another bonus or something in there.

@JoelAErickson

This is just a guess, but it might be a way of structuring the deal so that there's little risk if he can't replicate what he did this season, then rewarding him financially if he does.

So maybe only the signing bonus ($4.2M) and first year salary ($1.5M) are guaranteed? If so, it's like a one-year $5.7M deal with two option years. Good structure for the Colts.

He's not. He fractured 2 vertebrae and is in his mid-30s. He's done.

Colts reached agreement with their OG Mark Glowinski on a 3-year, $18 million deal before he became a free agent this winter, per source. Teams re-signing quality players before they hit the market.

Not bad, even better if it's back-loaded.
