How many US dollars would you like to bet that Moncrief plays 15+ snaps in week one for the Jags?

Not doubting Keenan's ability. At the same time, not blaming McCardell either for what he has to work with in Moncrief. His stats cry injury guy. He has a single decent season coming up on THREE years ago (64 catches for 733 yds). 

30 and 32 catches per season the past two seasons indicates the Colts needed him to be more than a third rounder slot guy and he wasn't able to stay healthy to boot.


BTW, Luck was around for the full 2016 season. The Colts finished 8-8. Don't try to suggest that if Moncrief has stayed healthy it would have made a difference.

The fact is while the Colts believed they got a third round steal in Moncrief, in reality, the rest of the NFL was right for taking a pass on him.
