Colts Owner Jim Irsay Indicates Team Is Working On Trade

Colts owner Jim Irsay says his team is seriously contemplating a trade - a deal that could possibly include a high draft pick.

On Thursday, Irsay wrote on Twitter that ''serious'' trade winds are blowing though he also noted that often times these deals fall through. Later, he Tweeted that new Colts general manager Ryan Grigson isn't afraid to roll the dice and that the owner was willing to open his checkbook.

Those two posts followed an earlier one that read simply: ''TRADE WINDS BLOWING''

Irsay has not provided any indication of who the Colts might be trying to get, though their two biggest areas of need are cornerback and offensive line.

Ideas? This is one of the uncommon instances where I don't mind speculating.

MJD? Or someone less obvious?

 

I've heard they are targeting a cb.

 

MJD or Mike Wallace are the obvious, but I heard the same as crowned that it could be a CB.

 

Vontae Davis for a 1st round pick..........

 

Cary Williams?

 

He's playing tonight...so he might be off the list.

Jenkins maybe?

 

What about an OLineman...

 

Probably not Jenkins...http://gridironfans.com/forums/late...ys-cb-mike-jenkins-unlikely-ready-season.html

 

They'd probably go after someone less expected. Maybe someone like Chris Gamble, Captain Munnerlyn, or richard Marshall

 

Dolphins just signed Marshall to a 3 year deal he isn't getting traded.

 

I don't think any of those guys would warrant the alleged "high draft pick" Irsay's warbling on about. Davis is the only one I could think of that would net them that kind of return.

 

I'd bet it's MJD. Here in Indy local sports radio is talking about it being MJD but Irsay may have hecked it up with his tweet.

 

That would be HUGE for Andrew Luck and the Colts. That'd be a SERIOUS starter!

 

seems wallace is SO OBVIOUS. they have wayne and a bunch of struggling young guys, wallace and his connection to arians, irsay "getting his check book ready" for the guy that wants to get paid.

I want a first rounder, and Jerry Hughes.

the jags would NEVER trade mjd to the colts

 

I don't see the Colts offering a 1st round pick for Vontae...

 

I heard this last night on The Fan, a local sports radio station. They said last night that the Cowboys and the Colts have not spoken, so I doubt the player involved is Jenkins.

 

:ganja:

I was thinking that, too.

 

It'd be great if he just put it out there for shots and giggles...

 

yeah i agree, id burn to that too
