I really want to see Grover Stewart have a breakout year.

Nice call. If he does (and reports are that he has shaped his body to fit the type of defense we play a la Wilson) this line could be exceptional

I want the Colts to find a way to keep both Hentges and Travis. Keep only three running backs if you need to.. That fourth running back is someone that a waiver wire player would be almost as good as, not true for Hentges or Travis.

5 TEs is absurd lol. Especially if you're keeping at least 5 WRs, maybe 6.

I get liking Travis and Hentges, but Ebron/Doyle/Alie-Cox are locks. They're going to have to make a decision. Thank God this franchise is finally at a stage where they have to sweat those decisions.

Colts today signed free agent defensive tackle Johnny Robinson and waived running back James Williams. :cool:

I know is seems crazy to keep 5 tight ends but we may wish we did exactly that in a year or so. I think Ebron/Travis's skill set crosses over with our wide receivers skill set. If you look at rb/wr/te as just weapons for the qb to use, other than being what is always been done, why not keep the best 14-15 players period. Let the coaching staff be innovative. Whatever we do it is great that we sweat those decisions now. So much better than scouring the waiver wire for fool's gold.

Having said that I think we end up keeping Travis (his skill set is harder to replicate and seems more of a fit in today's NFL) and hope Hentges makes it to the practice squad

I don't know what they will do. We have been running 11 package (3 wrs) a lot this preseason. About 88% of the time apparently. I don't know if that is an indication of what we will do during the season or not.

Yep, most likely move.
Hentges probably makes it to the PS easily.
