Id add CB to the top of the list! With moore being our only good CB, juju cant be relied upon to stay healthy and Womack being soild but shouldn’t be anyones CB1
We've got to get the quarterback right before we think about any other position every good team in the NFL has a good reliable starting quarterback something we haven't had for years.
For the offseason , I would love if the colts went young guys on offense in the draft and strong vet signings on defense. Defensively, signing Javon holland and Dre greenlaw would be a major facelift for this defense. Also adding a mid level corner to breed competition and providing depth. Offensively getting Tyler Warren in round 1, a developmental tackle and a pass catching back (Henderson) in rounds 2-3. Offensive FA’s are will fries and Justin Fields
I see everyone is saying what free agents they want but are putting the cart befythe horse. We have to fiiiut who is going to be the defensive coordinator first. Hopefully they get an aggressive D coordinator not a Gus Bradley type. Then lets talk free agents. Then we may know who's going to fit their system.
Let’s see haw Darnold does in the playoffs. He was great at USC and has looked solid this season. If he plays well against the Rams and is available after the season (which may not happen), I would try to add him. A lot of “if’s” but I believe he will become even better with a coach like Steichen.😎
I like Holland, the Miami Dolphins safety. I would front load the contract of any free agent who signs. That way if they don't work out. It minimizes the cap hit.
I'd like to see a vet CB in the backfield, get Moore some help, Brent's not a guarantee. I would say TE, but Steichen hasn't shown he will properly utilize a talented TE, so I think this yr we should focus on building the defense with a new DC and work on improving Richardsons accuracy.
Great take guys!!! We are all in agreement on several keys to rebuilding this team!!! Penn State TE Tyler Warren's stock us in the rise! If he us available at pick #14 you run the card to the podium!!!!
Anthony Richardson is the Johnathan Bender of football players. Great build and super athletic but glass. I don’t see us winning a championship with him. Overall our defense carried us this season if you mention we are 4 and out many times and we depended on the defense all season. How do we have an offensive head coach and no offensive. 9 years of complacency. Chris it’s been great knowing you but if you want to watch your own career funeral live on TV it’s gonna be in year 2025-2026 because I don’t see any change. Him saying I don’t want to put the franchise at risk. What does that mean? If it means 10 years we are already there. Way too conservative!!! Grow a pair and put your name on it or not.
Hopefully we can this time spend money on the right players this offseason cause lately we spending money but either not on the right players or not enough money to get the right players
My wishlist is Fa- Dre greenlaw,halfunga, re sign fries and paye, fields, and then sprinkle in pieces like a good veteran cb. Draft - ( 1st 3 rounds) rd 1. Warren te rd 2. Xavier watts S rd 3 Skattabo rb
14th pick i say snag Tyler Warren TE as he may well be a generational player at the position....Then i say go defense with DB's and LB's....OL depth late in draft...
The irony of all of this is AR only reason Ballard still got a job, yet even Ballard knows we can't move too far forward with AR at this particular time. Ive said it all season. AR was not ready to be starter, i get the reps, but it was way to much pressure. Now i feel he needs to earn a starting spot. We still wouldnt went far but if they would of started Flacco, the better qb would have just spent a season developing AR flaws he woukd be in much better spot than we are right now
I wouldn't mind bringing in justin fields way better he had in Chicago and he was playing fairly good in pitsburgh before they put Wilson in for whatever reason. Sam Darnold isn't bad either just rather go with the more mobile guy in fields so play calling won't have to change
Whatever type of guys Ballard *might* add, it needs to be a dog that is hungry. Talent won't be enough to move the needle. The complacency needs to disrupted in that locker room.
Speed or Franklin need to go. Both shouldn’t stay. We need a true number 1 wide receiver. Pittman is a reliable #2. We need to bring in a drafted TE and a free agent TE. We Need a veteran CB and safety
This will be one of the biggest off seasons for this franchise let's see action from Ballard not words we all know this is Ballard's fault he didn't need to tell us this get Justin fields
If greenlaw gets signed because of Buckner’s influence it would be insane for the morale of the defense
DeFo should be traded
The biggest overhauls need to happen at LB, Safety, TE, and backup RB.
Id add CB to the top of the list! With moore being our only good CB, juju cant be relied upon to stay healthy and Womack being soild but shouldn’t be anyones CB1
I would like to see the bring in either Justin Fields or Sam Darnold
Could see fields. I feel darnold might command a ton of money and want to start somewhere
Same! One of those 2 specifically!
Fields. or trade for one of the younger qbs on teams with mainstay starters such as mckey from the eagles or milton from the pats
Me too
Definitely Justin fields I totally agree with you not sure about darnold Fields just fits the scheme a lot better for Shane steichen.

Correct, seen alot of people suggesting Saleh but he runs a 3-4 I'm pretty sure so to your point gotta know the DC first
They should go after Jevon Holland S from phins. Been top 5 last two years. He's young and could help this secondary.

Ballard said he has to do things different, but we've had 8 years of this 8 years. I don't see it getting any better
Yeah i lowkey gave up on the colts. Ballard is causing colts to lose fans smh
Can’t wait to get Tyler Warren! Revamp this whole defense
Inky Johnson as a DB coach
Maybe bring in Quandre Diggs or Jevon Holland at Safety
Yes !

Talented tight end? I don’t see that on the colts offense right now. Cox is fine but isn’t the best and grandson stinks.
Tht accuracy take is a tough challenge 😔😔
Greenlaw and Ward can be had from 49ers, drastic improvement !
ward with houston he already in a so what good situation he ain’t goin nowhere and honestly he really ain’t even that good
Don’t forget the defensive line couldn’t stop the run either not all about pass rush😊😊😊

Man you went way back for the Jonathan Bender comparison, I was thinking Greg Oden myself
I’ll believe it when I see it
Hopefully we can this time spend money on the right players this offseason cause lately we spending money but either not on the right players or not enough money to get the right players
Hope there are a lot of changes.
What if he brought in a stud safety and corner?
I think if Quinn is available in the 2nd we 1 million percent should take him
My wishlist is
Fa- Dre greenlaw,halfunga, re sign fries and paye, fields, and then sprinkle in pieces like a good veteran cb.
Draft - ( 1st 3 rounds) rd 1. Warren te rd 2. Xavier watts S rd 3 Skattabo rb
watch them only add somebody at qb and competition anywhere else
No way I would bring Franklin back. He probably will be but if it was me it would be a clean sweep almost at LB and Safeties at the most
He's under contract still but he has trade value
14th pick i say snag Tyler Warren TE as he may well be a generational player at the position....Then i say go defense with DB's and LB's....OL depth late in draft...
It might be a big TE class but Tyler Warren is at the top then there’s everyone else

Sign Robert Mathis as a coach he will bring fire to the defensive unit
I wouldn't mind bringing in justin fields way better he had in Chicago and he was playing fairly good in pitsburgh before they put Wilson in for whatever reason. Sam Darnold isn't bad either just rather go with the more mobile guy in fields so play calling won't have to change
Id even be ok with Jimmy Garapolo
Hell no we won't have any receivers left

Why not give up a 5th for Jordan Travis to the jets, he’s way better than Anthony
Ballard not gonna do sh!t. I’m hoping we lose almost all games and get manning and Ballard gets fired next season
SIGN AIDEN MCCONELL FOR RICHARDSON BACKUP PAY HIM 1.8 guaranteed
I’ll save you the trouble…no, they won’t
