Trent Richardson to Colts For First Rounder

#95

Quote:Exactly what I thought. The Colts GM got awards for being the best GM last year, but it was completely unwarranted. Anyone could have drafted Andrew Luck. Nothing else he has done has been impressive, and this move stinks of desperation. I have no idea why a team would trade a first round pick for a running back at all to begin with, but Richardson wasn't even close to worth his draft position. The drafting of Richardson and Weeden in the first round last year by the Browns was all the signal anyone should have needed that the regime in charge then had no clue how to evaluate talent or build a team.
 

 

Agree here on the colts. Fleener and Allen have been unimpressive as well and Heyward Bey is apparently still Heyward Bey dropping tons of passes. Even this year them taking Werner to be a 3-4 OLB when he was a strict 4-3 DE at FSU was puzzling and he has been bad so far. A bit old but still aplies 3 games in :

 

Sports Illustrated's Greg Bedard doesn't think the Colts "are going to get the impact they hoped for from first-round pick Bjoern Werner this season."
Per Bedard, Werner has looked "extremely ordinary," has "average burst at the snap" and "hasn't shown many pass-rush moves" in the preseason. Although Werner had 13 sacks for Florida State last season en route to ACC Defensive Player of the Year honors, his game tape showed the lack of edge explosion Bedard is referring to. Werner will start the season as a backup as he adjusts to the outside linebacker spot. Aug 27 - 9:33 AM
