Colts sign QB Curtis Painter and OG Jaimie Thomas

by Brad Wells on Jul 29, 2009 4:26 PM EDT in Colts News

GoHorse88 has been on it today! I think it's fair to say that Indy cutting seven players yesterday was to make room for a rush of rookie signings. Via the Indy Star, the Colts signed 6th rounder Curtis Painter (QB, Purdue) and 7th rounder Jaimie Thomas (OG, Maryland) today. Terms of the deals are not as yet released, but shake n bake has speculated on what the deals could be.

Donald Brown (1st round), Fili Moala (2nd round), Austin Collie (4th round), and Terrance Taylor (5th round) are still unsigned. Camp opens in four days.

Shake edit: Taylor has been signed (tip it to metalmilitia snaging one out from under GoHorse88's watchful gaze)

Can't go to training camp until they're signed.

Like I said in the Fanpost

I’m refreshing sports news websites far too often to be deemed as appropriate work behavior, but what’re you gonna do?

Management degree from Purdue and I can’t get a decent job, lame. Anyone’s company hiring in the Chicago-land area? Haha!

P.S. Wasn’t Taylor a 4th rounder :) Sorry BBS, I’m a homer!

Colts always...

They always have their stuff together. The other guys will be signed before camp starts.

NFL Network Programming Alert!

Bill Polian is going to be on NFL Total Access next. Tune in now to see him or catch a later viewing of the show. Should be good.

Now a proud annoyance on Stampede Blue, 18to88, Indy Football Report, and Phil B's blog.

Random fact of the week from the empty void that is my mind: The World Series of Poker is finally back on ESPN starting this week (Tuesday nights). To commerate the event, here's a video of my favorite poker player at his best.

Thanks for the link.

I had technical difficulties watching the interview (the station froze and then went to a commercial at the beginning of the interview), so thanks for that.
