Colts Continue Workouts Without Rookie QB Andrew Luck

Found May 16, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Andrew Luck,  Jerraud Powers,  Coby Fleener,  Griff Whalen
TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts
The Colts are out of Luck at this week's mini-camp. With new quarterback Andrew Luck still finishing two college classes, team officials are doing what they can to make sure the No. 1 overall draft pick doesn't fall behind in his football studies before returning to Indy on June 8. Veterans can't wait to get a peek at Luck. ''I came in to do some maintenance stuff the last day of rookie mini-camp and I asked him 'Did you throw any picks?''' cornerback Jerraud Powers said. ''He said, 'I don't think I did.' So I said, 'Hi, I'm Jerraud Powers and I'll be picking you off a lot in practice.''' Aside from the ribbing Luck and his fellow rookies will take from the older guys this season, the Colts don't seem too concerned about not having Luck around. Coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday that the Colts have stayed in constant communication with Luck, that he's been busy with the team's playbook and that he's been able to work out with at least two college teammates, Coby Fleener and Griff Whalen, while at Stanford Fleener and Whalen are both on the Colts' roster.

To be perfectly honest, the answer to this question will most likely be “not well.” Gone are Joseph Addai, Dallas Clark, and Jeff Saturday, 3 huge components of Peyton Manning’s success the past decade, not to mention Manning himself.

Indianapolis Colts Fantasy Football Projections

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  May 18, 2012
QB Andrew Luck (Indianapolis) Like Robert Griffin, Andrew Luck should be a solid QB1 with upside as a rookie. I expect him to have better passing numbers than either Newton or Griffin, but he won’t match either of their rushing numbers, which is why Griffin has the advantage over Luck in fantasy, at least for this year. Projection: 4000 passing yards, 23 passing touchdowns, 14...

Best AFC South WR seasons

Via The Colts Authority  |  May 17, 2012
Nate Dunlevy offers up four candidates for the best season by a wide receiver in the AFC South. I know you're all aching to vote for Andre Johnson but you may want to consider the credentials of a certain Tastykake-loving wideout: How good was Marvin Harrison in 2002? So good that I can't even consider Reggie Wayne's 2007 masterpiece as the Indianapolis nominee.
