The receivers. With Reggie Wayne

The Colts didn't do much during the morning session and this team doesn't do much hitting of any kind in training camp. That's by design because this is an established, veteran team. No reason to bang those guys up too much right now. That said, it's obvious the Colts want to get a little bigger on the offensive line, moving Tony Ugoh(notes)  to left guard and then having several guys compete for the right guard spot. There's getting big, but also staying athletic. "We do so much pass blocking, we still have to be active," team president Bill Polian said. … The team has terrific depth at wide receiver with Reggie Wayne(notes), Pierre Garcon(notes), Austin Collie(notes) and Anthony Gonzalez(notes),  who played in only one game and had no catches last season because of a right knee injury. However, the problem with this group is that aside from Gonzalez, who can return punts but never has, none of those guys play special teams. On most teams, the fourth receiver plays special teams. … Speaking of Wayne, he wasn't happy about his contract this offseason (he has two years left) but he didn't let that interfere with his preparation for the upcoming campaign. Wayne said he lost 14 pounds since the end of last season, reporting to camp at 191. One key for Wayne was paying more attention to his diet earlier in the offseason. … Both running backs Joseph Addai(notes) and Donald Brown(notes)  look like they're in good shape and looked quick. Of course, they haven't gotten hit yet. Both of them need to avoid the minor injuries that have plagued them. … Coach Jim Caldwell said the team will be careful with strong safety Bob Sanders(notes),  who has been riddled by injuries throughout his career. Caldwell said he won't do anything to change the "violent" way Sanders plays on game days.

The receivers. With Reggie Wayne, Pierre Garcon, Austin Collie and the return of Anthony Gonzalez, the Colts have four capable starters. Wayne is the class of the group, one of the best in the league.

Then there's tight end Dallas Clark,  who had 100 catches last season. He is the perfect tight end for this offense. He isn't a great blocker, but he excels in this wide-open attack.

The pass rush. With Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis,  they have the best speed rush in the league. Freeney, when healthy, is the best edge rusher in the game. They feast on teams when they have the lead. Rookie Jerry Hughes, the top pick, fits right in with the other two in terms of style.

The corner tandem of Kelvin Hayden and Jerraud Powers,  who started last season as a rookie, will be a good one. The two didn't play together much last season because Hayden missed time with injuries. This is a young pair to watch.

Linebackers Clint Session and Gary Brackett.  They are both undersized and have square builds, but they know how to get to the football. I call Session the "best chubby" linebacker in the league.

The change of offensive coordinators. I don't think Clyde Christensen is the right man for the job. Manning has endorsed him, but one wonders if it's because he can control him. Tom Moore, the longtime coordinator, is still around as a consultant, so that dynamic will be interesting to watch.
