As a Colts fan, what a wild season. Going from “Are they going to tank this season” to coming out and being historically good offensively to where they weren’t even punting the ball, to now pushing the chips in for a chance at a ring.

This could be our Booger McFarland trade that gets us back to the promise land.

I think the Colts will do more with Sauce then we could have - wishing him well. Colts honestly have the best owner in football - even if this year doesn't end in a Superbowl appearance, you can tell Carlie is going to figure it out, and when she does, man the Colts are going to be a playoff team yearly. Happy for their fans Can someone work on how we can make Woody sell to someone like her?

Historically, not many late first round corners turn out to be all pro players.

I like this just as an NFL fan. Good players like Sauce should be in prime time playoff games and not wasting career on the Jets.

Combination of opportunity costs and scarcity of good corners in the league. Value wise nakes sense and yeah, my first thought of the deal as well sounded like a Godfather deal, Chris put the screws to em for it, let's hope it pays off.
