As a feature back this year, he put up OK numbers, but just isn't an impressive player. No breakaway speed like Coleman, no power like Howard. Purely a guy who got what the OL gave him.

I would like to think T.J. Green does as well. With both I actually think it's a case of actually wanting the success badly enough that they could potentially achieve. My memory is fuzzy but there is an image I can't get out of my head wth Green and I think it's from the game against the Texans and an attempted tackle on a TE from the Texans. In the NFL I'm not sure I have seen a tackle attempt any more funny that that one.

I don't see how Sickels fits. He played DE at PSU, and I don't see the athleticism for him to play EDGE in a 3-4.

I didn't say it was likely. OLB would be his position in this defense.

This might only interest me, but of the rookie FAs who have officially signed w #Colts, K/P Rigoberto Sanchez got the biggest signing bonus.

He was ranked as the top Punter prospect this year, also note he was given a $12k sign on bonus, everyone else has been closer the the 1k range

That is interesting. Maybe competition for Locke. If their punting is about the same but Sanchez is a better KOS (cuz it sure as hell won't be Vinatieri kicking off), you probably give the edge to Sanchez.

Does Vinatieri not have the leg to blast it through the end zone now with the kickoff position moved up? I don't think he's tried it since they moved it, but he has of course aged a few years since then, so it's entirely possible that it'd be a wash (though IIRC his accuracy from long range has actually improved with age).

i thought they wanted to preserve his leg for field goals
