Colts Still Trying to Trade Dwight Freeney?

Peter King writes that the Indianapolis Colts are still looking to trade DE Dwight Freeney for a “good pick” in the upcoming draft.

King adds that the reduced value of veteran players will most likely prevent the Colts from completing a deal. This was obviously evident by the fact that the Eagles received a seventh-round draft pick in return for CB Asante Samuel. Freeney is owed $14 million for the 2012 season, which is likely an impeding factor for team that would have interest in acquiring him.

King also notes that the Colts need players to fit into the mold of new head coach Chuck Pagano’s 3-4 defense so if the Colts somehow get an offer more than the Eagles got for Samuel they should consider trading Freeney.
