Darius Leonard has looked good for the Colts. Can't remember the last time we had a young linebacker to be really excited for

I agree....he seemed to be in every single play on defense last game. He's definitely going to be an unexpected bright spot for our D and has potential to be a star in this league.

He is. But there is so many weak areas for the team. They did not protect the qb, there was no rushing game, they did not stop the rush. The defense was tough in the red zone. Bend not break will haunt them.

I think this preseason has been the least amount of time I've spent following the Colts. Don't get me wrong, it's great that Luck is recovering, but everything else is "The Colts are so banged up at such and such positions" or "The Colts are so thin at this spot and that spot, need more talent all across the board," etc.

 

It's honestly depressing what Irsay, Grigson and Pagano have done to this franchise.

Have you ever posted anything positive anywhere?

Yeah, the post you quoted.

If people are interested there are some really good breakdowns of Nelson's play so far this preseason on Stampede Blue. Essentially Nelson is a monster who is gonna be a beast. He obviously still has room for growth, but this dude is a beast

That offensive line had better be a wall, because the Colts have very little on either side of the ball to feel good about.

 

Luck missed practice yesterday with a foot injury. Is there any body part this guy hasn't injured yet?

[Crimson and Cream]

Hopefully AC will be back for week 1 so we can slide Haeg over to RT. He's a better guard imo but it's better than Clark, Webb or the rookie.

The Jets have traded Teddy Bridgewater to the Saints for a 3rd round draft choice. Im unsure if Darnokd ir McKown will start

Darnold is the guy for sure

Looks like Khalil Mack is going to be a Bear

Nothing released on details. One site said 2 first rounders and more.

[IUfan_Charlie]

if Trubisky is the guy at QB the Bears are going to be  good soon. Lot of young talent on the team. 

[Josh]

The last player to command two first rounders in trade....Jay Cutler lol.

 

I'm glad he got picked up.  I drafted him in fantasy when nobody else would touch him

[biteoftheapple]

Colts final roster made. Cutting Fountain and Simon were my 2 surprises.

 

 

[Josh]

John Simon and Ryan Delaire getting cut are surprising to me.  Those two seemed like two of our best defensive players this preseason.  I'd like to trust you Ballard, but man
