Colts add LB

The Colts have signed LB Rufus Alexander from the Vikings practice squad. Alexander was a 6th round pick in 2007. He appeared in his first NFL game week 7 of this year and was a leading candidate to fill one of the roster spots left by the WIlliams' suspensions. Alexander is the 3rd player the Colts have signed off another teams practice squad this season.

pros and cons

Pro
his name is Rufus
he’s from a Colts type scheme (MIN’s DC was Indy’s DBs coach)
he was mentioned as a possible Colts pick in 2007

Con
It probably means Brackett is out for at least 3 weeks (the amount of time Alexander has to stay on the roster for)

Shonn Greene for Heisman
Big Ten's leading Rusher, Leads FBS
144 yards per game
6.2 yards per carry
08 TDs per game > 06 GPA

Or it could mean Brackett is done for the season, will be placed on IR, and this guy is just adding some depth. I seriously hope this is not the case.
