The Practice Sqaud Is Complete and Ferrell Is Nowhere In Sight

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 19:17:25 -0500

The practice squad is full now, but Colin Ferrell is not one of the two players who were just signed.? Neither was Kyle Shotwell.? The Colts missed out on two very good prospects.? Safety Brandon Foster and offensive tackle Dane Uperesa are the final two to make the practice squad.? To recap, this

Pitcock Quits, So It’s Time For Another Roster Prediction

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 01:50:17 -0500

Quinn Pitcock has retired from professional football.? I guess he pulled a Ricky Williams.??Indy still hold his rights, so if he would change is mind like Brett Favre, he would have to play for the Colts.? Good thing that this happened at arguably our deepest position.? I'm sure some of the other defensive tackles can make this whole ordeal be forgotten.? Eric Foster, Keyunta Dawson, Darrell Reid, and Ed Johnson should do the trick. Since Pitcock quit, and I have read some info about who&...

He better not blow it.? Adam Tafralis and Josh Betts are cr...

Position Battles: Return Specialist

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 13:50:02 -0500

The Colts have had one returner recently that was a Pro Bowl contender: Brad Pyatt.? Sadly, Pyatt's NFL career was ended with a neck injury, and he is currently with the Colorado Crush of the Arena Football League.? Since Pyatt's injury, mediocre has been the best way to describe the kick return situation.? The Colts have cycled through multiple returners: Terrence Wilkins, TJ Rushing, Troy Walters, all were mediocre.? Here are the contenders for the job in 2008, and I believe that re...

Mon, 16 Jun 2008 17:26:53 -0500

Long title, short blog.? In some lucky news, Rosevelt Colvin passed on the Indianapolis Colts to sign with the Houston Texans.? This surprised me, as Indianapolis is his home town.? He even has a house in the area.? The money was almost certainly the deciding factor.? My guess is the Colts offered him a veterans minimum contract while the Texans offered one of a much higher value.? I'm glad he passed on the Colts.? With all of the injuries the Colts had last season, adding an injury prone...
