NFL Draft/NFL Scouting Combine 2010: The Tight Ends
With the 2010 NFL Draft still many weeks away, Indy Football Report Editor John Oehser takes a look at the NFL Scouting Combine, held in late February and early March at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis. Oehser spent four days at the combine, and in the coming days will take a position-by-position look at the combine and the NFL Draft . . . The tight end position was largely overlooked at the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine, reason being it's hardly one of the league's draft-day glamor positions. In the decade of the 2000s, two tight ends – Vernon Davis and Kellen Winslow, Jr. – [...]
Indianapolis Colts Daily Digest: On opening of NFL free agency and Peyton Manning’s pain in the neck
THE DAILY DIGEST | Indy Football Report Editor John Oehser takes a look at what they're saying about and what's going on around the AFC Champion Indianapolis Colts . . . An NFL offseason with a new feel could feel strikingly similar to the Indianapolis Colts. The NFL's free-agency period is scheduled to begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday, and with the league likely facing its first offseason sans salary cap since 1993, the feeling at the NFL Scouting Combine this past week was teams might approach the period with caution and restraint. Restraint . . . Caution . . . In other words, the way the [...]
Schefter: Indianapolis Colts place first-round tender on S Antoine Bethea
"The Colts placed the first-round tender on safety Antoine Bethea, according to a source close to the situation," Adam Schefter writes, adding, "Should any team sign Bethea to an offer sheet, the Colts will have seven days to match -- or get back the other team's first-round pick. Bethea is a former sixth-round pick who was selected to the Pro Bowl last season. The first-round tender is worth $2.521 million." IFR Analysis: This move makes it highly likely that Bethea, a two-time Pro Bowl selection selected in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL Draft, will return to the Colts. That's not [...]

The statement: “Peyton Manning yesterday underwent a procedure to relieve pain in his neck caused by a pinched nerve. This condition has existed intermittently for the past four years, [...]
NFL Combine/NFL Draft 2010: The Wide Receivers
With the 2010 NFL Draft still many weeks away, Indy Football Report Editor John Oehser takes a look at the NFL Scouting Combine, held in late February and early March at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis. Oehser spent four days at the combine, and in the coming days will take a position-by-position look at the combine and the NFL Draft . . . When it comes to the wide receiver position in the 2010 NFL Draft, Dez Bryant is the first name to remember, and there's little sign of that changing. But the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine showed something else: The name Golden Tate? When [...]

The biggest news around the Colts early this week: the comments by C Jeff Saturday regarding the comments made by Colts President Bill Polian shortly after the Super Bowl about the play of the offensive line.

Indianapolis Colts C Jeff Saturday: “Obviously, as an offensive lineman, you take it personal, because that’s our job”
Indianapolis Colts C Jeff Saturday wasn't thrilled. Saturday, a four-time Pro Bowl center, said there was little question that not only was he hurt by comments made by Colts President Bill Polian shortly after a loss to the New Orleans Saints in Super Bowl XLIV early last month, but his line mates were, too. “Obviously, as an offensive lineman, you take it personal, because that's our job,” Saturday said in an interview with Dave Furst of WRTV-6 in Indianapolis. “I know I've talked to every lineman. It hurt everybody. That's not what you want to be said. I've looked at it and I don't [...]
Indianapolis Colts Daily Digest: Colts President Bill Polian weighs in on the 2010 NFL Draft
Indianapolis Colts President Bill Polian likes what he sees in the 2010 Draft. With the draft nearly two months away, and with the Colts holding the No. 31 overall selection in the first round, Polian said he agrees with many analysts and observers that this year's draft is among the deepest in recent memory. And he said that could be positive for the Colts. “The depth throughout is something that we haven't seen in quite some time,” Polian said in an NFL Network interview with former NFL General Manager Charley Casserly at the NFL Scouting Combine at Lucas Oil Stadium this past [...]
Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Jim Caldwell: “Success the year before does not guarantee” the future
As Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Jim Caldwell sees it, there's a lot about which to be optimistic. Caldwell said the time has come to move forward from a Super Bowl XLIV to the New Orleans Saints early last month, and because of the nature of the team and its players, that's a process he said will be productive. “No question about it,” Caldwell said during the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine, which is scheduled to continue at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis through Tuesday. “There are some things that we feel are good and solid and that we need to build upon. But you [...]
NFL Scouting Combine/NFL Draft 2010: The Running Backs
With the 2010 NFL Draft still many weeks away, Indy Football Report Editor John Oehser takes a look at the NFL Scouting Combine, held in late February and early March at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis. Oehser spent four days at the combine, and in the coming days will take a position-by-position look at the combine and the NFL Draft . . . A great, rarely-emphasized truth of the NFL is the position of running back in recent years has become closer to an afterthought than anyone once imagined. Think of it: RB Chris Johnson rushed for 2,000 yards this season, and the Tennessee [...]
