Doesn't the answer to your question 100% depend on what they could get? [/ QUOTE ] Yea. But he is getting on in years, and they do need help on defense, and he does want to move to Florida, and.... Lotta good reasons to do it if they can get a halfway decent deal.

Re: Should the Colts trade James?
They probably need to. I don't see how the keep Manning, Harrison and James together while feilding a championship caliber team. Running back is the easiest to replace. Idealy they trade him and are able to draft a cheaper but still talented replacement. It's a role of the dice though.

[/ QUOTE ] yeah, but I have to say I was shocked when I saw they resinged Harrison when they did. I mean, you have four receivers who post similar numbers, and Harrison starts to drift away from the lead role. Now, you have two great/very good receivers, along with one good one, and you get rid of your excellent running back? It didn't make much sense to me. I would have gotten rid of Harrison. (I may have missed info about free agency or something). I personally would have just let Manning go though. That's where the money is tied up ... and hey, Warner's looking for a job.

[/ QUOTE ] James will be 27 at the start of the 2005 season. By comparison, last year's leading rusher, Curtis Martin, started the 2004 season at 31 years old. Priest Holmes, the best running back in 2003, was 30 years old that year. James has plenty of good years ahead of him.

But probably running out of really good years. Wait a couple of years and they'll get a lot less for him. Martin is a freak (and I mean it in a good way). He is a rarity, not the rule. Plus, James wants to move. When a player wants to go, it's amazing how much less productive he can become.
