None of those teams needs a franchise QB. Colts are dumb for wanting to part with Peyton. He still has a good 5 years left in him.
Vikings have Ponder. Rams have Bradford. Rams suck this year because of their injuries to Oline and WR corps.
If Vikings or Rams get the #1 pick I expect them to deal it. I would. Dolphins, Chiefs, Redskins will want Luck.
I was just thinking the same thing. Someone's going to trade up if the Rams or Vikings get that top pick.
I think the Vikings would deal Ponder if they get it.
Any of those teams would be smarter to deal their existing QB than to try to trade the pick down and pass on Luck.
St. Louis keeping Bradford over Luck would make sense, but Indianapolis would be re ed to trade Luck and keep Manning. They should either try to transition smoothly from Manning to Luck or rebuild completely with Luck.
And Indy should fire caldwell regardless.
At this rate, I think Rams even take Luck. Bradford has really regressed. I would draft Luck and see what can be gotten in return for Bradford. No GM would fault the Rams for drafting/keeping Luck. He's a once-in-a-generation type talent. Bradford still holds a lot of value and could easily bring in a 1st and some later picks by a team.
Only team with a young QB I think trades the pick is Carolina. Newton is legit. Maybe Detroit.
If all 3 teams finish 2-14, who gets the pick? And what determines it?
Probably head-to-head, then divisional record, then conference record, etc...
Luck is by spades the most valuable pic whether kept or traded.
Even tho i think he is overated.
Colts doing anything other then tanking is beyond stupid.
LOL Colts fans cheering the fact that the most valuable asset in the draft is slipping away from them.
Colts have a good shot at another W next week...Gabbert is beyond terrible
Those gots probably think Peyton can return to his original form.
If the Colts were gonna win 2 games this year, it at least came against the 2 gayest teams possible.
Luck hasnt impressed me this year. Think be solid but not as good as Peyton.
Next year it's malarkey for barkley!
So if the season ended this week, who would have the first pick, and why?
3-way tie break is strength of schedule, with lowest strength of schedule picking higher.
Since the Colts beat the Texans, that lowers their SOS, and I believe they would get the pick (though you can't tell because the rest of the league still has to play). Rams are pretty much assured to have the highest SOS from what I've read, so if it finishes in a 3-way tie with 2-wins, it's between Indy and Minny.
I think Minny would be happy to get RGIII though... he would fit well with their other offensive weapons in the dome.
Colts have gone full re .
I could hardly believe my television screen.
Doesn't matter if you want to keep Manning or not, Luck has by far the best trade value (deservedly or not). Will sell tickets.
That team can't even tank properly. I like Peyton but I couldn't help but laugh at how giddy he was on the sidelines. He couldn't give a damn about the Colts getting their second win of the season during week 16. His big smile had everything to do with Luck.
Really? From what you've seen this year out of Ponder and the made of glass Bradford, you'd take both of them over Luck? You're ing crazy.
people are talking about a team NOT tanking? Wow...
Ponder is a rookie on a ty offensive outside of Adrian Peterson.
Bradford has been plagued by injuries this year but so have many on the Rams.
However, I wouldn't take either QB before Luck. You fail to assess the value Luck can bring for a team that already drafted a franchise QB. If either team can get a package surrounding two first round picks, you absolutely take it. I think Robert Griffin is 90% the prospect that Luck is and he can be had for a middle first round pick.
The GM who passes on Luck because you have Christian Ponder deserves to be fired immediately.
Not full re after all but rather adding some drama queen?
Colts will secure #1 pick with a loss in next weeks reg season finale.
Go clots!
