TitanLegend Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Simon was decent last year for the Colts, and it seems the biggest reason he was cut is he doesn't fit as well at 4-3 DE. I would certainly take him over the depth guys in Finch and Wallace. I mean maybe they become good but they're just gigantic unknowns at this point. Or maybe keep those two and cut a guy like Firsker or Stocker. Simon is very quality depth and as a starter isn't gonna be a liability. Seems Colts fans like him a good deal too(in a 3-4 anyway): https://www.stampedeblue.com/2018/9/2/17811544/cutting-john-simon-makes-sense-for-the-colts-hear-me-out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He showed more in a few weeks than Wallace and Carraway have to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Wallace can play both inside and outside lb. Making him a good keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are pretty filled up at ILB, and Correa can technically fill that role as well. I just think Finch has higher upside and value as a situational pass rusher than Wallace brings at anything.

Splitting hairs over what would be the 6th olb... Wallace was a standout last offseason lee Finch was this past month... but neither is in line for heavy defensive snaps this season. If I had to choose though, I'd take Wallace's versatility (especially on STs). In all honesty, as soon as Morgan and/ or Landry are healthy, I have a feeling we'll be cutting one of them... my money would be on Finch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragevsuall17 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I understand there's a new staff and a different take on the 3-4 scheme, but we had 3 lobs last year with 580+ snaps. Dodd was 4th with 92... and Wallace was 5th with 18 defensive snaps. With Rak, Morgan, Landry, and Correa there, I don't see a lot of defensive snaps for anyone who's there as the STs LBers.

Wasn't Wallace lost for the year in week 1 though? If they didn't trust Dodd, that may be why there were 3 with so many. Wallace may have played a lot more if they felt he had more potential and/or were more comfortable with him.playing than Dodd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this year I think the staff is going to be comfortable 4 deep, once everyone is healthy. I don't see many snaps available for the 5th OLb behind those 4... making Wallace's versatility on STs the deciding factor here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, depending on how they view Finch's potential, we could see him mixed in as well. Can never have enough capable pass rushers today, so they may find a way to keep him if they like him.

KingTitan Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Also keep in mind that we don't totally know how the defense will look. And how the lbs will be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
