Colon Likely Out For Season

the tv contract should take hold and raise the cap in 2014. i would cut him after june 1 and take the smaller hit next year and the bigger hit when we have more to play with. one way or another he needs gone.

after what i witnessed SD do with 3 brand spanking new linemen that didn't have big guts hanging on the front of them, and shut down our pass rush, i am glad we are getting a new o-line coach too. it is possible to have a new line be a good line.

the slow fat lumbering linemen we have in starks , colon, gilbert and even foster need to be replaced if we are ever going to see this offense preform up to the standard they should. these guys are not good players and i think we have gotten so used to bad play that any improvement is deemed as good play. well it's not. i've been preaching this for several years now. it's the players we put out there.

did anyone get a glimps of max and colon waddling onto the field at change of possession last night? they both look like they need wide load signs attached to their azzes. max has fallen right back into what he has always done and balloon up during the season. he was fit when he signed. i said it then, that i hope he stays that way but i wasen't counting on it. sure enough big and sloth like again before the season is over and colon has blossomed with him. way to slow to play at a high standard in this league. it just kills our offense.

Generally agree - other than Foster. He is a very underrated right guard, though that's about it for him position-wise. What I would do next year is have DeCastro shift to the left side, which should be a better fit for him with his mobility. Keep Foster at RG (if we can resign him), and of course Pouncey goes back to his natural C spot. That would give us a very solid interior 3. It's good to hear someone else on this board acknowledge that Gilbert has been a big, fat bust. I absolutely hated the pick when we made it, and he has done nothing to demonstrate that he can play the game at a NFL starter level (never mind justify his 2nd round status).

Give him 5 minutes alone with Gilbert and he will be.

TE i think we could run just about any type of blocking scheme if we go with the youth movement. as i said my concern is then with the type of RB that we have to run the zone system. like i have said with our line it is mismatched. max ,colon and foster don't fit the mobile type players needed to run our full offensive system of haley which limits his play calling ability. it also matches slow with two mobile linemen in DD and pouncey as was going to be our starters last year. now (next year) it would match adams,DD,pouncey, beachum and the draftpick i want , getting mobile across the line. that's the line i want to see gel together, no matter what type of scheme they run. i don't have a problem with the zone blocking scheme if they have the RB's to run it.

Which means Mendy, seems a long shot and if I heard right, the draft isn't rich with RB's. Although during the 4 game stretch when the line was most healthy, Red and Dwyer both ran well, I still think we can be successful with Dwyer if he can get in peak condition.

there are some guys that are out there in this draft. dwyer did most of his damage creating out of nothing then he did cutting back. breaking tackles was his gift i thought more then cutting through a small hole. rainey actually could do alot of damage in a zone type system. zac stacey, rex burkhead,ray graham out of pitt are a couple of guys that could help us. i'd stay away from montae ball and that type. those are more in the dwyer range i feel.
