The Indianapolis Colts: A Cautionary Tale
Tricky Danny Dimes....they sign him, he starts out extremely well....went what 8-0 or something to start? Gets injured. They extend him. Then they go all in by trading for Sauce Gardner. Now its a fire sale, the GM has been shitcanned and likely the HC at year's end. How quickly it can all go sour. But what are you supposed to do exactly in this instance? Indicators were very decent everything was trending up and the time to act was now for the Colts. Are most things in the NFL a coin flip? 🫤

Injuries are a wild thing and you just never know how a guy will come back from them. Jones looked amazing when the Colts were winning early last year, but he wasn't the only one who got injured and that team has not been the same since either. They are now a shell of themselves less than 12 months ago.
The real kick in the nuts is that the Jets get their 1st round pick, so selling the farm for a top pick in the draft, isn't going to happen in the first round.
