Colts | Melvin Bullitt injury update Tue Jul 5, 11:22 AM
Indianapolis Colts impending free-agent SS Melvin Bullitt (shoulder) said he's 100 percent recovered from shoulder surgery, during which a screw was inserted in the shoulder. Bullitt added he would like to re-sign with the team. 'I'm probably the strongest I've been in two years,' Bullitt said. 'I want to play in Indy again. That's what I'm planning on. But the reality is I'm not signed with anyone.'
| Footballguys view: Bob Sanders won't be returning to the Colts, not that he was on the field much in the last few years, so Bullitt has a chance to be the team's strong safety if he does re-sign. |

But I'd love nothing more than to run out as No. 33 with the horseshoe on,' Bullitt said.

Colts | Sanders to return in 5-6 weeks Mon Sep 7, 07:43 PM
The Associated Press reports that the Colts hope to see S Bob Sanders return by week 5 or 6 of the regular season. "The biggest thing was that we felt he [Sanders] was going to be back inside that five- or six-week window," head coach Jim Caldwell said Monday. "He's making progress, he's coming along."
| Footballguys view: Melvin Bullitt rockets up to a very startable DB in Sanders absence. He could easily be one of the standout fantasy DBs of the first month of the season based on his play in Sanders absence last year. Put him at the top of your waiver claims if he went undrafted in your IDP league. |

Colts | Sanders meeting with Dr. Andrews Tue Aug 11, 12:33 PM
Mike Chappell, of the Indianapolis Star, reports that Colts S Bob Sanders has a consultation scheduled with Dr. James Andrews after having a "clean-up" procedure on his knee during the offseason.
| Footballguys view: Andrews might as well be known as the Grim Reaper when it comes to player's near-term futures. We would hesitate to take Sanders any higher than your #1 bench DB in IDP leagues, and make sure to pair him with Melvin Bullitt when you do take Sanders as a your #2. Taking Bullitt late is advisable whether or not you take Sanders. |
