    Colts Reportedly Interested in Jonathan Martin
    While it makes sense from a personnel standpoint with Indy needing offensive line help, is it worth it for the locker room? Martin protected Luck's blind side at Stanford, so maybe that connection could help stabilize things with Andrew having his back, but who knows. Anyhow, they are only reports for now.

      Don't rule out 49ers. Jim Harbaugh recruited and coached Martin for 3 years at Stanford, there's a relationship there.

            Not sure how anyone could want him. Sure as hell wouldn't want him as a teammate.

                I'd have a hard time having him as a teammate. All the crap he caused in locker room and on top of that hes not very good.

                Give me Cognito in a heartbeat. He will be checked going forward and when he plays he is a pro bowl caliber guard.

                  I don't blame Martin for what happened. Something is cancerous about Miami's locker room. This stuff happens all over the NFL, but it's handled in-house. The fact that this event got into the media is evidence that the coaching & management in Miami is weak.

                    Given his connection to Luck and Indy's need, it makes perfect sense. He dominated for Luck at Stanford.

                        its believed that OT play on both ends was good for the colts last year....and martin isnt likely to beat out either costanzo or cherlius....so if he were to go to indy hed have to make it as a guard right now....dunno if hes a guard

                          Martin is a big time f-ggot. Something isn't right about him. Google "1000 text messages between Richie Incognito and Jonathan Martin." They were good friends.

                            Youre right about Miami locker room and management weak.

                            But it got into the media because Martin is a pssy snitch, and every NFL player now knows it. He cant handle ridicule? Who wants to go to war with that?

                            When he lines up against an nfl defensive line, its over...mentally. hes weak

                                you can "go to war" with anyone who shows up to play and tries to do their job......you dont have to be best friends with everyone even if its your own positional "grouping".....i cant speak with absolute certaintity....but do you think a guy like joe thomas is out partaking in the kind of debauchery incognito and the pouncey brothers(best friends with aaron hernandez) are? i havent read through all of the texts...just skimmed it....but it doesnt seem that incognito is a good influence on anyone...let alone a 24 year old kid.....

                                i dont disagree that something might be wrong with martin and he didnt go about it the right way.....do a little research on martins upbringing....both parents harvard educated.....9 relatives who graduated from harvard......this was a kid who was trying to fit in and bond with teammates who were absolute pieces of trash.....

                                agreed with wilfred though....his play was poor...dunno if hes cutout for that level of play

                                  It will be difficult for NFL players to feel comfortable around Martin. How can you be buddies with a guy who may turn around and release your text messages to the media and smear your name just because you're busting balls?

                                  With that being said there seem to be 3 teams that may be able to sign Martin and accept him in their locker room. The Colts and 49ers because of Luck and Harbaugh. The Seahawks are another possibility given Sherman and Doug Baldwin were teammates with Martin at Stanford and Pete Carroll seems to be the type of guy that believes in second chances and could get the most out of Martin.

                                    Nahhh, that's overstating the matter. I think just about everyone knows Incognito is a pure unadulterated asshole. If you're not one, should be fine. So as long as the team doesn't have an Incognito on it's O-Line and has a decent team culture, should be OK.

                                      Can you elaborate? Martin started every game since entering the league up to the "incident".

                                          He only was starting because of where he was drafted, they had to keep giving him chances. They switched his position a couple weeks before this incident, and it appeared as though he was actually going to be losing a starting position if this whole thing never happened.

                                            of course a team's front office will take a flier on him, doesnt mean the locker room will...

                                                      ususally if a guy can help the team win someone will take him. but after the fact that nobody took tebow mostly due to the locker room i think this situation could get similar

                                                        Regardless of whether Incognito is a bad influence or if he "bullied" Martin, Martin snitched in the biggest way he could. What a pussy. I wouldn't want him on my team

                                                          I think the media blew what happened out of proportion.
