Colts sign LB Seward


nationsford

Recommended Posts

Seward was a great draft pick for the Panthers. He was a 5th rounder if I remember correctly. To get 5 years out of a guy and have him contribute, all be it on mainly ST, is a solid late round pick. He was never really going to be apart of the main LB rotation but did show promise early on. I find it sad that guys like this go un-noticed / unapprechiated for what they do for the team. Just like Lucas and Goings, Seward's time was up in Carolina but for what he gave the team the past five years I say thanks.

is dan connor next to be like this..i hope not but with landon sticking around i dont see him takeing the place of Diggs..but it would be a waste for us to have him as a backup.

Also, things are looking good for us to receive compensatory draft picks in 2010. That is the 4th FA we have lost and we have not signed any new ones. Unfortunatley, Jones contract with the Titans was at the league minimum and those values are sometimes not high enough to receive even a 7th round pick. But Jones contract was for three years and that could help the computation somewhat. I am hoping Seward's is for the above the minimum.

Of course if we go out and sign 4 or more UFA's and they stick on the roster after cuts, then all of what I said goes out the door. Such is the way the process works.

Yas is wrong in that article. The Pats did not sign Seward to an offer sheet last year, he just worked out for them and they never called back thus he signed his one year tender with us.

you expected yas to be right? weird.

anyway....he was good backup and depth to have. i was glad that we didn't have to use him much in the past couple years. doesn't hurt as much as losing hangman but still...thanks for being a part of the team.

glad he has another chance to play somewhere. hopefully he won't be buried in the depth chart and gets some good PT there.

    • While I agree with you in spirit my gut and my heart says I'm not falling for this again until I see consistent results across the entire upcoming season. Then I'll breathe a sigh of relief and truly feel better about the future.
    • After some time to process and also in light of other small markets being successful and not requiring top overall picks to compete. This years finals looming large. While I readily acknowledge the league office clearly despises our franchise and has absolutely no qualms about us getting the short end of any stick in the draft lottery. The Hornets may just be doomed regardless due to their own mismanagement and inability to draft and develop legitimate playoff worthy talent. And we seemingly always pick the wrong player in the draft. I mean at this point we can even take a hard look at the 2020 draft and someone like Haliburton going pick 12 while Ball went 3rd. Did we draft the wrong guy or are we just that inept at any level of talent development or is it a mixture of both? Looks the latter right now.
    • I feel we are already moving in a better direction before we even take a snap this season.  We have hope now.  People are talking about us brewing something special. Remember how dismal things were when Rhule was here?
