Understood, but I was curious if anyone could see us re-signing Melvin if Desir doesn't work out. He'd presumably be cheap and only a year removed from being a CB who was an asset to the team. I recall Ballard saying that he didn't really value Melvin when he first arrived, but grew to appreciate him as he got to know him better.

I just assume there’s some other 3rd tier free agent who they think would be great in a predominantly zone scheme.

Absolutely. Melvin never would've been able to shutdown DeAndre Hopkins for 2 straight games.

But if Desir is asking for crazy money or guaranteed years, then Ballard has no choice but to let him see if he can get it.

Desir deserves a chance to see what he is worth. He's going to get great money. Hopefully it will be here. There is one thing working in the Colts favor, Desir feels at home here. If the Colts can match, he isn't forced to uproot his family and basically start over in on a new team.

I'm crossing my fingers.

There is really no reason for him not to be back other than Ballard fucked up

Holder says Desir is still testing the market and will negotiate with Colts once he has his best offer.
