A great move by the Colts to benefit from the Tampa fire sale. Booger McFarland is a good-great run defender and they only had to give up a second round pick.

Thumbs up from me.

Good pick up to essentially replace Corey Simon. Should help the Indy run defense a lot.

From the AP report: "McFarland, a 6-foot, 300-pound defensive tackle, should help reinforce the middle of the Colts' leaky run defense, which ranks last in the NFL. In five games this season, the unbeaten Colts have allowed 166.8 yards per game... They thought they had fixed that problem last year when they signed former Pro Bowl defensive tackle Corey Simon to a lucrative contract after Philadelphia released him near the end of the preseason because of a contract dispute... McFarland is expected to produce quickly in Indy, where he will be the biggest defensive lineman on the roster... He's also familiar with the Colts' defense and coach Tony Dungy, whom he played under during his first three seasons in Tampa."
