Will he be able to convince a rookie WR to give up #11?

I could not love this any more!
I can finally never root for Philly again. I can now pretend to be a Colts fan!
(if Philly drafts Lance I will be physically ill)

Happy for Carson! He has an awesome offensive line at Indy. Also, he is back with Frank Reich who knows best how to utilize him. Now to go win a superbowl and prove the naysayers wrong.

He gets paid 10 million on March 19th. I think he'll be able to make a deal. Pittman was 6 in college so I doubt he's really attached.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
The only downside is he's going to have to play until he's about 50 to break the franchise passing records.

Well, he has the single season record for both passing yards and TDs in Philly. Two different seasons he got each of those too. And I don't see Hurts breaking either.

Yessss! Fuck Philly. Fuck da Bears.

Franchise career passing records I should've said. ;)
It'll also be nice to see him behind a real NFL o-line again. Haven't seen that since 2017 or so.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
As a Bears fan, I was getting excited about the possibility of Wentz going to Chicago. But this is definitely a better place for him. Reich and a better o line, and the fact that Chicago doesn’t know how to do quarterbacks! Ha! Best of luck Carson in Indy!!

What's EDP gotta say about this?

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
Actually it seems to be a fairly decent deal for the Colts. A 3rd rounder with a 2nd that could turn into a 1st rounder next year?
-
Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
The Colts gave up very little so they should be able to keep some pieces around him. Fuck the Eagles! Trash fucking organization.

Yeah, I think the Eagles hurt themselves by trying to sit back and let the bidding war escalate. It was reported earlier that Indy had offered two 2nd rounders and that Chicago's offer was better than that. This seems to be pretty equal to the two 2nd rounders haul and maybe even slightly worse since they have to rely on Wentz winning the starting job and staying healthy in order to get it escalated to a 1st rounder. I would guess Chicago was offering a guaranteed 1st rounder and then some. Wonder if they just told Philly to eff off so they had to settle for what the Colts were offering???

Yeah, they do need a LT tho, but got a first round pick and still even after Wentz's 25 mil they have plenty of cap space.
I'm most excited to see him with some competent WRs. The colts got a couple youngins, a little yet TBD how good they become. But it's been a long damn time since I seen a WR get open in Philly.

I'd almost call it a conditional first as 75% of snaps next year seems like the much more likely outcome.

I am no Philly fan, but they were stuck in a really weird QB market this year. Some decent kids coming in and some big time movement of veterans. In some ways the market was saturated. Plus Wentz is an unknown commodity at this point, he has to prove he can figure out his game.

I don't disagree, I don't think its a real big hurdle to jump... Unless he gets hurt. In any case they have a 2nd rounder in hand right now.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
This is a great deal for Carson and Indy. Now he needs to get to work on his mechanics. I hope he works with a QB guru again this offseason.

I hear there’ll be a pretty good LT available around that pick...

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
I've always liked the Colts. Can't say I'm a "fan" as I don't follow them specifically or go out of my way to watch but ever since I was young and the Colts were the Browns of the league(at a time when the Browns were actually almost good) I rooted for them as the underdog. Basically they never did anything to make me hate them so I felt bad for them and started liking them.

I’ll sign that petition.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
Colts gave up 19 sacks last year with the statue of Rivers in the backfield.
Eagles gave up 60+ with Wentz eating 50 of them.
This is as good of a situation as Carson could have hoped for.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
Yay!
Anyone got good twitter follows for the Colts? Looking forward to dump the Philadelphia media.

Pretty sure Jason Peters was responsible for 74 of those sacks including a couple for the Colts.

So what's he going to do with his other trump stamp? over the top or laser removal?

I think it's quite telling that the two major teams after Wentz had former QB/Offensive coaches that had experience with Wentz. It kinda even helped Philly these guys had got sucked away and were on teams that needed a QB.
If you watch the tape from 2020, let's be honest, it's bad. But for those that know what Wentz is behind the scenes, it's a lot easier to look at that season as a fluke.

Lakes having a tattoo of Trump on his lower back is an image I’ll never get over...
But also, the Colts logo can go around any existing tramp stamp. #protip

Pat McAFee.
He's quite mixed on Wentz. Actually was quite opposed to him a few weeks ago, but he's entertaining.

Re: What sort of thread have you made for us? A Wentz thread, if you can keep it.
Also interesting note, it's rumored that after 2016, Pederson and Howie were contemplating getting rid of Reich and Wentz went to bat for him to keep him aboard. Which subsequently led to 2017 and Reich getting a HC job in 18.
It may work out that Wentz helped save Reich's career and then Reich helped save Wentz's career.

Looking forward to a fresh start for Carson. Philly just seemed toxic.
