Will T.Y Hilton be back?
 
I don't think he will be back with the colts. Some team will over pay for his services.

I feel the same

Depends on what Ballards plans are at the position.

He’s got a lot of work to do, that’s for sure.

If the plan is a young QB I say yes, if it’s a vet I say no

I doubt it. We need a number one receiver Hilton is not a top receiver

Racehorse 02-14-2021 09:23 AM

I would love to see him retire as a Colt like Marvin and Reggie.

Best WR on the team right now. Best route runner, makes tough catches. Both parties want him to be a Colt. Is there someone else out there as a FA that can replace him?

And they will be looking WR again in the draft since Cambell cant stay health

Ballard hasn’t given up on Campbell

And he has not hesitated to cut loose draft picks who cant play. If Campbell had played a full season, TY might not have any leverage. How do you let the leading WR walk? Himes got more catches than anyone else, and IF the Colts are going to play a rookie or younger QB, they could use a guy who can still make tough 3rd down catches

Methinks the market will not offer TY huge $$$ given many teams in or near cap hell. Betting he comes back on a low ball or least semi resonable offer to carry on and eventually retire as a Colt.

He's damn close though. He makes all of the other receiver's jobs easier, since he is such a good deep threat. Can't blame Hilton for JB or Rivers. When Luck was around, Hilton was a damn great deep threat playmaker. Like Racehorse said, I hope he retires a Colt.

Hilton has produced many a first down, continuing a drive down the field. I loved being at the game and hearing on the PA, TY Hilton for ANOTHER Indianapolis first down!

Not a great year to be a FA.

Pundits are pundits and you don't need to be a sportswriter to publish a top 100 list online.

That said, of the three or four lists of top free agents that I've perused, TY has not been near the top on any of them.

To me, that speaks to fan/writer opinions of him outside of our Indy bubble, and doesn't really say much about how the other 31 GM's think of him. But it also makes me think that we Colts fans overvalue him.

I think he'll be back with something along the lines of a three-year, $25 million contract, front-loaded, with a team option on the third year.

Oldcolt 02-15-2021 01:42 PM

I would love to have him back, and if he isn’t getting #1 receiver money I would love it. I just think we need a true #1 receiver, there are several candidates available in free agency and I would like us to spend what it takes to get one. Then if we can afford Hilton, do it.

omahacolt 02-15-2021 10:14 PM

I doubt it but I would love him to come back. I think it depends on what TY wants to do. I don’t see a great opportunity for him on another teams so who knows

Its about what he brings on the field, in the locker room and in the community. They know what they get off the field as well as at practice and game time

TheMugwump 02-16-2021 06:15 PM

I agree. I should clarify that when I say we Colts fans overvalue him, I mean we overvalue what other teams may be willing to pay him. Not for what he brings to the Colts practice field and locker room in terms of leadership.

Other GMs may or may not be looking for that, or valuing that, in the way Reich, Ballard, and we do.
