[QUOTE=celts32;893089]I want RG3 but I don't think most people are saying signing Manning is a bad thing. Manning and RG3 is like selecting between a Filet and a NY Strip...I only take issue with those who suggest we have a hamburger instead...[/QUOTE]

Yes I don't want a ribeye

[quote=skinsfaninok;893092]So from that read SS, I get the sense that we are Manning 1st then RG3?[/quote]

Well I think it's a product of timing also. This afternoon Manning will be free game for anyone.

Doesn't make sense to sit and wait and then what happens, the Cardinals get get Manning, the Dolphins get Flynn, Browns agree to a deal with the Rams for RG3 and we get....Colt McCoy!!!!!

Seriously though, I don't know that one is 100% preferred over the other

It's all speculation, but I think the Redskins should pass on Manning. I understand he's the best free agent in NFL history, but this team has to draft their own. Unless they intend to draft a rookie quarterback like Tannehill, Foles, or Weeden to back up Manning, then signing Manning wouldn't make much sense. Grossman and Beck are not good enough to even be back ups. Jonathan Crompton might be another option at QB but we don't know much about him yet. So, maybe they can draft a QB and develop him.[/quote]

I'm a bit confused by your post

Smoot,

Any chance that Manning signs with someone today?

I guess what he's trying to say is that the Redskins should draft RGIII, he just went the way of China to get to that point.

I don't know, but I'd be surprised

[quote=SmootSmack;893100]I don't know, but I'd be surprised[/quote]

I would think teams are going to want to see him throw and have their doctors check him out. Plus I could see him wanting to take some time to make a decision.

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

I still think he's going to retire. But if he plays again, I think it's the Cards.

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

what if this announcement was to announce that peyton is staying in indy as a part owner.

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

I think Peyton Manning will be a late sign in free agency; which will put a lot more pressure on the Rams to get a deal down for the #2 trade.

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

Tough seeing these guys part ways. A lot of emotion there.

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

I was a tad surprised to see both of them cry

We'll see

re: Colts Officially Release Peyton Manning (QB Thread #11)
 

I really think he'll be a late FA signing, as someone else said. I think this is just way too emotional for him to be making that sort of decision right now.

Would be interesting if both Manning and Reggie Wayne end up in 'Zona.
