Second Take: Frank Gore to the Colts

[LT Profits]

Colts plan to sign Frank Gore to a three-year, $12 million contract.

The deal will include $7.5M guaranteed. It's slightly better than the deal Gore originally agreed to with the Eagles, but his reversal likely had more to do with the offensive stability in Indy. Gore, still a solid north-south runner with elite pass-protection skills at age 31, will move in front of Boom Herron as the starter and should't have a problem getting 200-220 carries.

Smart move by gore

[jjgold]

good move

I approve of this one

[Cross]

San Francisco is going to be awful, but great move for Andrew luck and the Colts!

[Holtgetsback]

Great pickup

I think they get Andre Johnson too. He still has a few good years in him

Colts are turning into the Senior U

Bradshaw 2.0 with better durability.

Great move for Frank to turn down Philly for the Colts. Their system is perfect for him.

If I was Gore I would have gone with the eagles. Either way good for him to get out of SF

[opie1988]

Like I said....take your handoffs from Andrew Luck, or the guy who invented the butt fumble?

Pretty easy decision here.

Colts 11-5 on a bad year

[existential]

Indy trying to get homefield with Gore + Johnson.

Luck badly needs to cut down on his turnovers though and defense has some holes.

If they smash mouth it, it'll help both of those areas.

[Thor4140]

they need to address what might be the worst defense in the league

[existential]

you're right in the sense that the defensive talent is horrid, but they had a decent scheme last year
