Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Jim Caldwell: “I’m excited about the future”
Indianapolis Colts Head Coach Jim Caldwell already is looking to the future. Caldwell, entering his second season as the Colts' head coach, has spent a bit of time in recent weeks reviewing Super Bowl XLIV. But he said what's past is past, and the process of looking ahead is continuing at this week's NFL Scouting Combine. “I’m excited about the future,” Caldwell said Sunday morning at the combine, which continues at Lucas Oil Stadium in downtown Indianapolis through Tuesday, March 5. “That’s the thing about this time of year. You see it in these young guys that are out [...]

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 NFL is a quarterbacks league, so it's little surprise that even what some analysts consider a down year for the position, it still dominated the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine. Sam Bradford. Jimmy Clausen. Colt McCoy. And, of course, Tim [...]
Indianapolis Colts Sunday Digest: On Offensive Coordinator Tom Moore, Ron Turner and Darren Sproles
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 . . . When it comes to the Indianapolis Colts coaching news around the NFL Scouting Combine this weekend, it's important to remember a couple of truisms: Sometimes, speculation is just speculation. And just because a thing makes sense doesn't make it inevitable. The Colts, less than three weeks after their Super Bowl XLIV loss to New Orleans, reportedly have hired Ron Turner as an offensive assistant, a move that in [...]
Indy Star: Indianapolis Colts to hire Ron Turner as assistant coach
"The Indianapolis Colts have added Ron Turner to their coaching roster, the latest change to coach Jim Caldwell’s staff," Mike Chappell of the Indianapolis Star reports, adding, "It might not be the last. Frank Bauer, Turner’s agent, confirmed the Colts’ addition of Turner to the Chicago Tribune. Turner joined Jim Harbaugh’s staff at Stanford earlier this month after being fired as the Chicago Bears’ offensive coordinator. It’s uncertain what position Turner will fill, and whether more changes are imminent." Chappell goes on to write, "Caldwell’s staff already has suffered [...]
Indianapolis Colts to show MLB Gary Brackett just how much he’s worth
Occasionally in each NFL offseason, there comes news that -- if not shocking -- reveals how much certain, previously-underrated players mean to organizations. Such was the case with Indianapolis Colts MLB Gary Brackett late this past week. The Colts didn't tag Brackett this past week. Instead, they opted to do something a bit less salary cap-costly, a lot more expensive in real money and decidedly more permament. Brackett likely won't be leaving Indianapolis. Instead, according to Colts Owner and Chief Executive Officer Jim Irsay, he'll be staying and playing for an extended [...]
NFL Scouting Combine: 2010 draft class best in nearly 30 years, Charley Casserly says
If the Indianapolis Colts -- or any other team, for that matter -- are needing significant help in the 2010 NFL Draft, there may be good news. This may be the best draft in a significant period of time. Charley Casserly, a longtime, respected NFL General Manager with the Washington Redskins and Houston Texans, on Friday at the NFL Scouting Combine said the general managers, coaches and personnel officials may be scouting at Lucas Oil Stadium the best class in nearly three decades. And he said that's particularly true early. "This is the best first round I've seen since 1983," [...]
Tag or no tag, best move for both sides is still for Indianapolis Colts to resign MLB Gary Brackett
The big news around the Indianapolis Colts Thursday was hardly news at all. The deadline for teams to place a franchise or transition tag on potential free agents passed Thursday, with the team opting to not place either tag on defensive captain and middle linebacker Gary Brackett. This made headlines locally, mainly because neither side has said much during ongoing negotiations, but the reality is this was not only not remotely surprising, but in fact doesn't move this story significantly in any direction. No, the Colts did not “tag” Brackett Thursday. But that doesn't mean he is any [...]
NFL Scouting Combine 2010: Thursday wrapup
A quick glance around the NFL Scouting Combine from Thursday, February 25 . . . INDIANAPOLIS -- Life at the NFL Scouting Combine is a bit different for Scott Pioli these days. First off, longtime New England Patriots vice president of personnel now is in his second season as the general manager of the Kansas City Chiefs. That means preparing for a Top 5 selection in the NFL Draft rather than one of the bottom picks of the first round. It means something else, too. He's a lot more popular walking around Indianapolis. “This is the first time in I don't know how many years [...]
Indianapolis Colts 2010 offseason primer: The Centers
In the seventh of a series, Indy Football Report Editor John Oehser continues to break down the Colts' roster entering the 2010 offseason . . . PART SEVEN: THE CENTERS . . . Analyzing the Indianapolis Colts' center position has pretty much been the same story for a while now, a single-topic story if there ever was one. And a reliable story as well. Jeff Saturday, who will enter his 12th NFL season next season, has been starting plays in front of Peyton Manning for so long, and has been so durable and so consistent, that it was easy at times this past season to forget that he [...]
Indianapolis Colts Daily Digest: On the NFL Scouting Combine and thoughts on Darren Sproles
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 . . . It's NFL Scouting Combine time for the Indianapolis Colts and the rest of the NFL -- a strange February, brand of football that somewhere, somehow in the last decade has become part of the league's viewing landscape. That means in the coming days you'll hear everything that has become something of a cliche in recent year -- the prodding, the poking, the pressure, etc. If you're following the NFL Network or the [...]
