Marvin Harrison is remaining with the Indianapolis Colts as Peyton Manning's primary target. Harrison agreed to a six-year, $66 million contract with the team on Wednesday that includes a $22 million signing bonus, according to a league source who requested anonymity. The star receiver is making $5.56 million this season.

Seems like they should focus on Edge. Elite RBs are pretty tough to come by and the way the offense is run it appears that Marvin while an UNREAL WR could be replaced easier than Edge.

for 66 mil he better start taking hits and fighting for yards instead of going out of bounds and to the ground before he is touched.

Those have een the talks all along since last year. Colts believe the WR is more difficult to obtain than RB based on the success in the league of low round RB in recent years. Also, like all teams they get scared of giving big money to againg RB. I know James is not old, but has taken many hits/injuries. They have talked about franchising him for 1-2 seasons.

That's too bad I would've liked to see Harrison come home to where he belongs (and lives in the offseason). The CITY of PHILADELPHIA!!!! :suomi:

He knows Peyton will be there....they're already one of the greatest QB/WR combos of all time.

Colts and Stokley agree on new 5-year contract

The best season of Brandon Stokley's NFL career will be rewarded with a new contract from the Indianapolis Colts.

Rick Smith, Stokley's agent, confirmed Saturday the veteran wide receiver and the Colts have agreed in principle to a five-year deal. Financial terms were not immediately available.

Stokley, 28, could have become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season. His contract resolution comes less than two weeks after the team signed five-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Marvin Harrison to a seven-year, $67 million extension.

Stokley is in the midst of a breakout season. Working primarily out of the slot in the Colts' three-receiver formation, he has 58 receptions for 936 yards and nine touchdowns, all career highs.

Stokley signed with the Colts as an unrestricted free agent before the 2003 season.

ESPN reports that the Colts will place franchise tag on Edge and he will remain a Colt.
