The Indianapolis Star doesn't expect Edgerrin James to be with the Colts in 2006. Because of the uncapped 2007 season, teams will have to "frontload" deals, causing immediate salary cap hits when a marquee free agent signs. The Colts can't squeeze Reggie Wayne and James in, so Edge is likely to go. Indianapolis could look for a running back in the draft.

Dominic Rhodes has a $1.45 million roster bonus this offseason.
Rhodes hardly distinguished himself when given the chance in 2005. The Colts may cut him and start completely over at the running back position.

Colts GM Bill Polian recently said Reggie Wayne "isn't going anywhere."
The Indianapolis star reports the team is likely to keep him over Edgerrin James. They can probably only afford one. Wayne is due a huge contract, but the Colts will slap the franchise tag on him if the two sides can't come to a long-term agreement.

Colts | Manning still feeling heat for offensive line comments
Sun, 22 Jan 2006 08:48:29 -0800

The Boston Globe's Ron Borges reports Indianapolis Colts QB Peyton Manning is still feeling some heat and has lost some respect for comments he made about the team's offensive line after their playoff loss Sunday, Jan. 15, to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Manning pointed the blame for the loss to the offensive line and their lack of protection for him. With each playoff disappointment, it becomes more difficult to exonerate Manning for the Colts' failures.

Colts | Madden says defense was better; but still not good
Sun, 22 Jan 2006 08:45:49 -0800

The Boston Globe's Ron Borges reports NFL analyst John Madden said a telling point of the Indianapolis Colts playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers was the performance of their defense. ''All year people kept saying the Colts were better on defense and mistaking that for having a good defense," Madden pointed out. ''They did get better on defense this year, but they still were not a good defense."

Colts | James eligible for unrestricted free agency
Sun, 22 Jan 2006 08:32:24 -0800

Mike Chappell, of the Indianapolis Star, reports Indianapolis Colts RB Edgerrin James will be eligible to become an unrestricted free agent after the 2005 season. If the team decides to keep WR Reggie Wayne, James would most likely play elsewhere for the 2006 season.

Colts | Cortez eligible for unrestricted free agency....LOL!

wow I wonder where edge will end up and what kind of market there will be for him? He looked dominant for most of the year, but then again that was in the Indy offense.

If I were the Colts, I'd want RB Maroney. He could end up being better than Edge anyway. Its easier to find a good RB than a WR, esp one that can impact in year 1.

a strong possibility for James is the Eagles. Now that would make things interesting for 06.

There is absolutely NO CHANCE James goes to the Eagles. Remember, the Eagles gave Westbrook his deal.

The Iggles have cap monies and Westbrook does a lot of things well besides being a RB. He can catch the ball via the pass or the kick and he can line up all over the field.
