 |
LB Rob Morris (UFA): Has
re-signed with the Colts. Terms of the deal have not yet been disclosed. |
 |
LB Cato June (UFA): Some teams with early rumored
interest include the Ravens, Lions and Panthers and Giants, but he
didn't have a visit over the weekend. According to one of our sources,
the Ravens have lost interest due to their weekend signing of Jarret
Johnson. |
 |
RB Dominic Rhodes (UFA): Rhodes' Friday visit
to the Giants extended into Saturday. While the Jets would have been a
logical place for him to visit while he was out there, he didn't visit
anyone on Sunday. |
 |
CB Nick Harper (UFA): Rumors have been
floating that he was drawing interest from the Jets and Vikings, but he
didn't go anywhere over the weekend. Harper isn't likely to
return to Indy. But he may not get a huge deal either. ColtPower's
Jerry Langton pointed out in
a recent Insiders feature, "Although he has been a solid
contributor to a Super Bowl champion, the market for undersized,
33-year-old corners who lack deep speed and bring along considerable
legal baggage may not be as lucrative as he hopes." |
 |
S Mike Doss (UFA): Although Doss is rumored to be drawing interest from Tampa Bay
and Cleveland, he didn't have a visit over the weekend. |
 |
RG Jake Scott (RFA): The former 5th-round pick was
tendered at the second-round compensation level. It won't be tough for
him to draw an offer higher than his $1.3 million one-year deal. And for
a Super Bowl-caliber guard with a good health history, a team might
surrender a second-rounder versus taking their chance on a high draft
pick prospect. |
 |
WR Brandon Stokley (UFA): Still likely to draw
some offers despite his three injuries last year that resulted in him
only catching 8 passes in 2007 in four game appearances and one start.
The Colts could circle back after releasing him, but Stokely was due a
$500,000 roster bonus and a $2.1 million salary this season. |
 |
DT Montae Reagor (UFA): Sidelined following
Week 5 due to an auto accident that left him with serious head and
facial injuries, Reagor was due a $1.05 million roster bonus and $2
million base salary for 2007 so the Colts had to release him. Early
speculation is that he's more likely to return than Stokley. |
 |
DE Bo Schobel (RFA): He's the only RFA that the
Colts didn't tender. He's unlikely to return for anything more than a
one-year minimum. |
 |
LG Ryan Lilja (RFA): Tendered at the
second-round compensation level since he was undrafted and the Colts
wouldn't have received any compensation otherwise. Lilja is highly
talented with a great attitude to boot, but teams might not be as active
in pursuing him as Scott since he started just five games this season
largely due to knee problems that dated back to training camp. |
 |
DE Josh Thomas (RFA): The backup DE is a good fit
for the Colts. They tendered him at the second-round pick level, which
should be good enough to keep him in Indy. |
 |
LB Gilbert Gardner (RFA): Signed to a low-round
tender as an unrestricted free agent. The Colts get a third-round pick
if he gets an offer they decide not to match. |
 |
WR Aaron Moorehead (UFA): He really came on
down the stretch for the Colts, but the team will wait to see what he'll
draw on the open market. If the price is reasonable, the Colts should
make a play to keep him. |
 |
KR/PR Terrence Wilkins (UFA): Boosted his stock
with a really good season as a returns specialist. But with second-year
player T.J. Rushing waiting in the wings, the Colts won't overpay to
bring him back. |
 |
DT Dan Klecko (UFA): Carved out a niche role
as a FB in goal-line situations and caught a pair of touchdown passes in
the process. He did a capable job as a DT as well, but if he gets
offered much more than the veteran minimum, don't expect to see him
back. |
 |
RB James Mungro (UFA): Coming back from a serious
knee injury, Mungro isn't likely to draw much interest. He didn't last
year as a UFA when he was healthy, so if the Colts want him back, a
one-year minimum deal should do it. |
 |
LB Rocky Boiman (UFA): Played well on special
teams, but unless he's interested in a veteran minimum deal, don't
expect to see him back. |
 |
WR Ricky Proehl (UFA): Will check his market
value, but is expected to retire. |
 |
QB Jim Sorgi (RFA): Received a tender that would
provide the Colts with a 6th-round draft pick if they decide not to
match another team's bid for Sorgi. |
 |
CB Jason David (RFA): Received a tender that would
provide the Colts with only a 4th-round draft pick, which was a bit of a
surprise since it's likely they will lose UFA Nick Harper. |
 |
DE Dwight Freeney (UFA): Was offered a one-year
contract tender of $8.644 million. Long-term deal appears likely, and
that would allow the Colts to lower his cap hit by spreading his signing
bonus in a new deal over the length of his contract. |
