Actually I think Luck will have around 15 Td passes and 12 Ints or so.. I can see RG3 at around 25 Total Td's because he can run for 5-7 or maybe more.

^ He's a rookie. He'll throw 10. Hell he threw 10 interceptions THIS year.

He's not your typical rookie, neither is Griffin who also has a low INT ratio.

Both Griffin and Luck are no longer facing NCAA defenses. They are ready to step into the NFL where defenses are much more advanced and where defensive players are much more elite. Both of them will have their fair share of INTs. If Luck threw only 10 at Stanford last year, then he'll toss at least 15 picks as a rookie this year. RG3 only threw six picks last year at Baylor. But look for that number to climb to 12 to 14 in his rookie season. Both of these quarterbacks did an excellent job of protecting the football on the collegiate level last year. But the NFL is not the collegiate level.

True but for either of them to come in and throw 20TDs and lets say 6 Ints would be some magical stuff.

As talented as Luck is, he has no talent whatsoever around him...except maybe Reggie Wayne. The Colts have no running game, their o-line stinks, and so does their defense. It will be interesting to see what he is able to do with such a meh roster.

It sounds like Luck, if drafted by Indianapolis, will be in the same no win situation that Colt McCoy has been facing the past few years. It's a good thing that the Colts have a chance to rebuild their roster through the draft and take advantage of the fact that they can select a promising prospect early in every round of the draft. Maybe Luck can manage Sam Bradford's 7-9 rookie record.

I don't know about Luck have no talent whatsover.
They've got Wayne, Collie and Donald Brown.
Their pass protection is decent they gave up fewer sacks and Football Outsider rates them 18th in pass protection rating which is middle of the pack.
I agree that their OL doesn't run block very well but then again they also didn't run the ball very much.
I think their offense suffered greatly from having Curtis Painter under center for the bulk of the season.
Dan Orlovsky isn't anyone to write home about, but there offense looked much better with Dan under center then Painter.

Sam has the same problem in stl so let's see if luck is really that much better

Yeah but at least Bradford had Stephen Jackson in St. Louis. Granted that he wasn't in his prime, but he is much better than any RB currently in the Colts roster. I'll be curious to see how Bradford does if he gets a #1 WR.

Loved our second week of free agency. We did: absolutely nothing except prep for the draft and re-open negotiations with Fletcher.

And that's a move in the right direction. No Meriweather or Cedric Griffin signings this week.

care to elaborate?

Anyone see where the Browns are possibly going to take Tannehill @ #4 now? ESPN also put up a statistic on QB's taken in the first round in the last 15 years with highest number of INT's........

Rex Grossman @15, Tim Couch @ 15, Patrick Ramsey @ 13, JP lossman @14 and Matty Ryan @ 19.

Kinda, sad that we had two of the QB's on that list and the Browns had the other. The rest of the league did ok.......lol
