Kevin & Query - Friday 11/02 - Colts traded Nyheim Hines right at the deadline, was the deal worth it? Colts also fire their Offensive Coordinator

View descriptionShare

(00:00 - 26:59) - The curse of Jake continues as Marc left his wallet at home. The trade deadline saw Nyheim Hines traded to the Buffalo Bills for Zack Moss and a 6th round draft pick. Along with that trade the Colts fired their offensive coordinator Marcus Brady. Were Buffalo really the best team to trade with for the Colts or were better offers out there? It has been reported that Hines made a trade request, but nothing is confirmed yet. Marc and Kevin then run down the other trades that took place up against the NFL deadline last night. Steve Nash was fired by the Brooklyn Nets after they BEAT the Pacers. Frank Reich and Marcus Brady had very similar personalities, perhaps Brady's firing was to give the Colts coaching staff a more diverse approach.

(31:57 - 44:24) - Back in May Frank Reich said that Nyheim Hines would be an important draft for people's fantasy football teams. Apparently, he meant that for Buffalo fans instead. Callers start to weigh in on the Hines trade and Brady firing.  

(44:25 - 1:10:35) - Stephen Holder of ESPN joins the program to kick off the second hour. Holder says that it was known Hines was unhappy in the locker room. He may not have asked for the trade but was likely fine with being moved. He doesn't know the exact parameters surrounding the trade, and what may transform the 6th round pick into a 5th round pick. Do Chris Ballard's actions yesterday speak to Chris Ballard's job security? Marc asks if the Marcus Brady firing is a scapegoat move by someone in the office. Holder details how Reich and Siriani worked well together because they had different personalities that formed a "yin-yang" situation. Holder speculates on how the Colts will fair against the New England Patriots this Sunday.

(1:10:36 - 1:26:12) - Marc and Kevin are joined by Brian Neubert the Purdue Boilermaker writer for on3sports. He gives a preview of Purdue's upcoming matchup against Iowa this weekend. Neubert stresses that this team needs to be more Purdue like in order for them to be successful and potentially win the Big Ten Eastern Conference. They are taking a risk on two freshman guards this Saturday. Kevin transitions Neubert over to Purdue's basketball team and how they manage to have one Mr. Basketball and one Mr. Basketball runner up. Will Purdue trust Brayden Smith with the ball right away? 

(1:26:13 - 1:31:08) - Talk returns to the NFL trade deadline ending last night and the moves that were made. Kevin thinks that the deadline was exciting much like the MLB and NBA's deadlines. He then runs down the list of free agents the Colts will have next year. Marc and Kevin go back and forth on who is a "must" re-sign player for next season. 

(1:31:09 - 1:56:08) - Alex Golden host of the "Setting the Pace" podcast starts the final hour talking about Myles Turner's comments on the WOJ podcast a few days ago. Golden believes the comment was fine so long as it was a hypothetical question but also wishes Turner did a better job backing that statement up against the Brooklyn Nets the following day. He also believes that head-coach Rick Carlisle has put Buddy Hield in a great position to succeed either with the team or potentially as a trade. Kevin asks if there should be urgency to get Bennedict Mathurin into the starting lineup. Golden says the Pacers are in a position to "feed-the-hot-hand" with players like Mathurin, Hield, Duarte, and Haliburton. Kevin wonders who is a key player and who is expendable or just a roll player. Golden believe Haliburton and Mathurin are the only two players who are untouchable.

(2:05:04 - 2:16:23) - Closing talk about the Nyheim Hines trade and how he is the ultimate winner from the trade. Look at the Bills upcoming schedule to see where they can utilize Hines moving forward. The Colts ultimately failed themselves in trade talks with a team that the rest of the NFL doesn't see as being worth pursuing.
