In regard to Johnson, they're swapping Reggie Wayne for him. An upgrade, but not a massive upgrade.The Colts APPEAR a lot better as of right bow. You can deny it all you want.

Langford and Cole are additions and improve their defense a bit, but I wouldn't say either are significant upgrades. Cole is a bit of a risk at the tender age of 33. Langford is decent, but more of a back up than a starter.
And I don't agree with you that the only old player they have added is Gore. Only Langford isn't well into his 30s. What I don't get is the Colts are risking a lot on players past their prime. Could pay off. Could be a major disaster. Cole is 33. Johnson is 34. Gore is 32.

65 catches.Reggie Wayne basically sucked last year.
I think Andre Johnson is certainly a significant upgrade to Reggie Wayne, although you may feel differently.
I'm not claiming that the Colts are the team of the future, but they've improved and are definitely a contender.

They have improved a bit, but they needed to improve to be a contender. I still think there is a decent gap between the Pats and Colts. The Colts lucked (no pun intended) into the AFCCG.
Reggie Wayne was very good for half the year last year. So I would say he is on par for Wayne in the first half. We will see at 34 if Johnson doesn't slow down in the second half too.

You really didn't pay close attention. He was good through the first nine games and dropped off drastically.If you look at his production in the first half, he had a few clunkers, but was a solid receiver for the most part:

Johnson was just as inconsistent (granted with far lesser QBs throwing to him):

We'll see, but it's okay to like the Patriots and still admit that another team made some improvements....really, it is!
If the colts have a half decent defense, they have to be one of the favorites of the afc.
I had Reggie Wayne on my "offical pats fans" fantasy team. I'm aware of what he did/didn't do.
If you wish to think that Andre Johnson is not an upgrade to Reggie Wayne, be my guest. It's just a difference of opinions and there isn't a right/wrong answer.
When did I say they didn't make improvements. I am just not going to go overboard. I wasn't all that hot on Johnson to begin with. And I think Cole and Langford are good players, but nothing to write home about at this point. The Colts improved, but I don't see it as a drastic improvement. And the players they added have age concerns on whether they hit the age wall this upcoming season.

Langford just turned 29. No real age concerns there.
