Kicker Adam Vinatieri Signs With the Indianapolis Colts
For the sake of team unity, the Colts will be saved from a Manning/ Vanderjagt fiasco. The glass half full people are going to say that Vinatieri is clutch, and will finally enable the Colts to win the “big game.” This move seems to me like pulling the trigger on drafting a weaker kicker or defense after someone starts the run in the fantasy draft and leaving a good running back on the board, or changing the defensive personnel from a 4-3 to a 3-4 in the copycat NFL league and then teams just going back to a 4-3 once again. Sometimes teams try to keep their championship window open longer than realistically possible. There are few things more unbearable to watch than a former title contending team slowly slipping into a second tier team. Vinatieri was tired of the shrewd Patriots front office and signed a five-year, $12 million deal with a $3.5 million signing bonus. Vanderjagt subsequently signed with the Dallas Cowboys.
