Colts wanted Gerhart
Apparently the Colts were looking to trade for Toby Gerhart before they went after Richardson.

Re: Colts wanted Gerhart
it would have been for a pretty bad pick and not totally worth it. we dont utilize toby very well at all but id rahter keep him around instead of letting him go for a 5/6

Toby will more likely leave at the end of the year anyway. I am sure there are teams he could be starting on.

Probably. We'll need all the draft ammo we can get. I still have hope that Spielman can move him. If this Pep Hamilton wanted Toby, maybe another former Stanford coach would be interested as well...?Demi wrote:Should have accepted whatever they would have given us...
I'm willing to give Spielman the benefit of the doubt. Maybe their offer sucked.

I gotta agree with this because he'll be gone next year anyways

I agree. Gehart will be gone next season anyway. Trading him would've been good for whatever we would have gotten in return.
