PM has a really tricky situation with his injury. It might be several more months before they are sure he can play or not, even then it's going to be dicey. I think the Colts have to think long term and Luck is someone that they simply cannot afford to pass over.

Odds are Luck goes to Indy.

I think the Colts are in the best situation to move on from P. Manning right now. Manning's health is a true concern and I really don't think they should risk by staying with Manning. Plus they have an opportunity to once again get a franchise QB in the draft.

The only way Indy DOES NOT take Luck is if.....Vinnie is now calling the shots in the Hoosier state....

The way I see it no one will know anything for sure until next April but we will have a better idea of what may happen one month before the draft. I'm not 100% on the exact date and amount but Manning is due to receive a giant roster bonus, some thing over 20 mil I believe, in mid march. If he takes that bonus that will more likely than not mean he will be returning to the colts and they will be trading the first pick away, unless he pulls a Haynesworth that is.

I guess the question is: how does the bonus work if Manning gets traded to another team? Because if another team has to pick up the bonus, the Colts won't have any trading partners.

Colts can’t pay and trade Peyton | ProFootballTalk

That's what always puzzled me. To re-sign a guy to a major contract who was headed to IR. IND doesn't deserve any Luck.

Ruhskins · 12-08-2011, 03:28 PM

It looks like that if the Colts are going to move on without Manning, they will most likely need to trade him to whatever team Manning wants (and maybe lessening the compensation) so Manning agrees to move the bonus payment date. Unless they keep him and sit Luck for the first season.

I read it. Great break down. However most of it is through McShay's POV. I'm not a McShay kind of guy. I prefer a Mayock over him and Kiper any day of the week. I know Kiper gives some opinion in this article, and he has a solid opinion.

McShay's on my list. He knows what he did...

Anyhow, I've heard good things about this report. I'll have to check it out later

skinsfaninok · 12-09-2011, 07:05 PM

Is Mel going to NFLN?

SmootSmack · 12-09-2011, 07:31 PM

What? I know nothing of him going anywhere. I just meant I, having left, will miss working with him. Though we only really interacted via phone he's one of the nicest on air talents I worked with. Probably my favorite NFL guy for sure
