It's between Indy and Miami for the first overall pick. If you're Indy and you have the first pick, you must seriously consider taking Luck. Manning ain't gonna be around forever and you have to think that even more now with him coming off neck surgery
That's like Chicago drafting a SG first overall to replace Jordan 5 years from now. Indianapolis is in win now mode. Wasting a 1st overall pick on a player who won't play for 4-5 years is a bad idea. They'll rebuild their D and go for another Super Bowl.
The only way they draft Luck is if they cut Manning. But there's no way in hell Indianapolis cuts Manning, they have to much respect for him. Plus Trent Richardson would be a huge upgrade over their current RBs. A good QB will be available in the 33-36 range, which is where they'd be picking for their second pick. Not that I'd waste that pick on a QB anyway.
Yeah it would stupid to do that if Jordan was in his prime. Manning will be 36 at the start of next season and he's coming off neck surgery, which is pretty serious in my book. His health will be a question mark. If the Colts get the top pick, they would be stupid not to at least consider taking Luck. It wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing if he sits on the bench for maybe three years. While there are no guarantees in the NFL Draft, Luck would appear to be as close as it gets.
To be fair, Tim Couch, David Carr, Joey Harrington, and Alex Smith had quite distinguished careers.
haha. Hmm. Maybe we have different definitions of distinguished.

He was decent under Norv Turner too.
The Ravens seem to play down to the level of the other team. A good team, they play good. A shit team, they play like shit.
Unfortunately for Ravens fans, they still have to play the Cardinals, Seahawks, Colts, and Browns twice.
They'll kill the cards just like how they killed the rams after the Titan lost. We should be able to beat the Seahawks (but no promises), not even Flacco can lose to the colts, but those browns games could actually be tough (well except the one at home).
New Orleans @ St Louis <-- I see the saints getting 45
Miami @ New York Giants <-- ahmad Bradshaw all day
Arizona @ Baltimore <-- we better kill the cards.
Indianapolis @ Tennessee <-- Curtis, you back-up job next year depends on this game.
Minnesota @ Carolina <-- peterson's going to have a huge game.
Jacksonville @ Houston <-- jags will be falling back to earth.
Detroit @ Denver <-- tebow's real challenge, a team that wants to win.
Washington @ Buffalo <-- I believe in you beck!
Cincinnati @ Seattle <-- another boring Seattle game.
Cleveland @ San Francisco <-- can it be true? Is Alec smith actually good?
New England @ Pittsburgh <-- Patriots, I need you to kill those steelers.

If I'm Indianapolis, assuming Manning isn't done and isn't doing worse than everybody thinks, and I have the first overall pick I trade down with a team that wants Luck, and unlike most recent previous years there is a good chance for actual takers of the number one position next draft.
With the crapload of picks they can probably get I start upgrading my offensive line and defense. Of course part of the Colts problems is that they haven't drafted good in years.

I hear several NFL coaches would have showed up at his workout, except they didn't want to.
