Why aren't we scheduling a visit with Marcus Pollard already? And more surprisingly, he's still out there and no one has signed him yet.
Get this done, TD.

I don't think TE is a huge need and chances are he is going to want some good money to leave Indy. He'll probably end up back there.Originally posted by Mr. Miyagi
He's not the weapon he once was. You always gotta be careful with the players on explosive offenses.Dareus - 1st Round Pick -
Do you think they're happy with Campbell and/or Euhus?
Anyone know the status of their recoveries?Comment

Good question... Regardless, I wouldn't mind adding Pollard.Originally posted by Willis!Comment

because he can't block Estelle Getty...Originally posted by Mr. Miyagi
I like Pollard but I'd rather pick Matt Jones(he's got Antonio Gates written all over him) in rnd. 2 and sign someone like Mili or F. Jones as insurance.Adversity doesn't create character, it reveals it..Comment

In round 2??? You want us to take a TE with Rd 2??? That's almost as bad as taking Nugent.Originally posted by gimpybecause he can't block Estelle Getty...

Even if we were to sign DeMulling...we should still draft an O-lineman. O-lineman is our #1 concern (preferably a Center). After that, maybe a DT or CB for depth and from their on...just best available. TEs are slim pickings, so either we sign a FA for security if we're not sure about Campbell and Euhus, or we leave it and maybe sign/draft a backup FB that can also catch late in the draft.

I know.. I know.. you are right.. Teague only has 1 yr left and drafting a C would be the smart thing to do... but can you imagine have a TE that can run a 4.4 40???Originally posted by mysticsotoIn round 2???

A 3rd round pick who didn't make a big kick? Vinateiri, an undrafted free agent, makes big kicks his living.Originally posted by BuffaloRanger27 yard kick with the playoffs on the line.

He will probably have the same success Nick Kaeding did in the playoffs....Originally posted by BuffaloRanger27 yard kick with the playoffs on the line.

I can imagine that about the same as a 330 lb behemoth with decent speed for his size and soft hands...what's a LB or S going to do to stop him? It would take a few of them to bring him down!Originally posted by gimpyComment

Pollard not only can't block, but will be 33 when the season starts and his skills are declining. Let's grab a draft pick, e.g., Dreessen, or a free agent with an upside.Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

There are no good draft picks for TE this year except the #1 position and he will be taken long before we are ready to take a TE. The reason I said Pollard was we don't want a long term person here. We have Campbell and Euhus who will be long term. Pollard is just insurance for this year until they recover. We still have Neufield to block and Pollard can be used when we are going for pass (like 3rd and long).Originally posted by Jan Reimers
The whole pt is to have a cheap alternative 1 yr deal type of TE. I'd much rather Jermaine Wiggins, but once Campbell and Euhus recover, do we really want 3 capable of starting TEs complaining about wanting a bigger piece of the pie? I'm not sure how much JW would cost, but we spent a 4th rd pick on Euhus, and he will probably become our main TE in the next year or two.
Of course, if our O-line becomes set, I would rather use Jason Peters here, but MM doesn't seem keen on using him there...Comment
