Well, now you have what you wanted from Cook so that helps. Move cook to practice squad and bring over Duke Johnson for short yardage and clock eating. Need a change up still besides qb. Three backs cut from the same mold. At least nothing lost if they sub Hines in and out for Simgletary.

 

How do people post this kind of stuff with a straight face? Nonsensical

Good points. Yeah as you say fine. Better than counting on Cook.. Breece Hall gets snagged first by Jets then Wilson who woulda filled the Bill goes to Miami. I hope they have enough.  Run Josh run. Superman another year or so.

 

Fans are so pathetic with this nonsense.

Can’t tell if you’re serious

Well apparently Chiefs also do, otherwise Hill would be still on the team.

 

Also, if the cap is not "real", why exactly wasn't Poyer extended already?

 

I do know that cap can be manipulated to a certain extent but it is still more than real in terms of limiting teams to do whatever they want.

Ok I will play. Chiefs. Cap is “real” so they paid how many WRs this year in Cap hits to replace the cap hit of Hill?  
 

and a single move cleared their cap up. When you have your QB and all that space in the Bank of your QB (just cash it) during Allen’s window Cap will not hurt them.

The constant benching of TJ Yeldon is about the only thing they have got right at running back. He really sucked. 

 

That is a wild over reaction. We were struggling in the run game and Singeltary was really struggling in pass pro early in his career. He would come in in spot duty and be "proficient" then we wouldn't see him ever again. 

I am not claiming he was a super star, or even great. But people aren't still making TJ Yeldon jokes about the RB position years later because a terrible football player didn't dress.

I wish they'd get serious about a little preservation of Josh Allen. Powerful move the pile runners are a dime a dozen in the nfl and we got a short stack lightweight nickles worth

Thanks for showing us now little you know 👍🏻

Hines is a great pass catching back, also can split out wide and a returner to trade a 6th and Zack moss seems like a great deal

Really? What do you know? I know the punter doesn't see the field much because of the quarterback. I know the quarterback is the leading rusher, and the short yardage back.  Where are they without him. Easily the leauges mvp.

Serious question. I like the move of adding Hines (gave up nothing and actually got them to take Moss from us) and think he is a receiving threat and has home run capability. So why did the Colts let him go for nothing?


expensive and they are going nowhere

I believe they made the move with an eye towards the salary cap for next season.

 

They had just resigned Hines to a pretty sizable contract for a back up RB with the intent to get him more involved. Reports were he had even spent a lot of time with the WR group in camp as well. Since then they have seen Deon Jackson step up and play well in the game Taylor missed at RB. Michael Pittman came back healthy and looks like a pretty legit #1 WR and Alec Pierce has been one heck of a weapon for them. It's a chance for them to get younger and cheaper at the skill positions in what may well amount to a lost season.

Because they don't think he's as good as you describe him.

Apparently when Schefter broke the news live on ESPN, he reported that Hines requested a trade. This is per several Colts fans on Twitter. He wasn't happy with his usage there.
