Does it make sense to make a phone call to Cincinnati? What should the Colts be willing to give up to get Palmer? Here is the case
2. Palmer has shown he is an accurate pro that has been very patient in a horrendous organization.
3. The Bungels need to get something for him, but they are not gonna look for a ton for a player that is adding nothing to their team but a headache.
I'm making a large assumption here- that the Colts could sign him to a one year deal and that they have the cap room.
But wouldn't you feel better with Palmer in there than the Orlov-Painter evil duo.
