Still wish we could have gotten Locker last year. Oh well.
I'll be totally surprised if we sign Flynn. Only mildly, if that, if we get Peyton.
Still don't think we're spending the #6 on a QB
Sure is a lot of this outside our local media:
@howardeskin
Howard Eskin
Told by 2 people close to Mannings that Peyton very likely to be a Redskin despite smokescreen being put of their by Skins to seek other QBs
and expanded by NFP here:

What about the number 2 or 3?

I don't trust Eskin as far as I can throw him.

I don't know him but thought it was interesting that the NFP picked it up.
Also thought this was interesting:
Peyton Manning Willing to Work "Flexible" Contract
The Phinsider — According to an Adam Schefter report, sources close to Peyton Manning are saying, if the Indianapolis Colts were to release him, he would be willing to work a "flexible" contract with his new team. Basically, Manning would work a deal that would guarantee little money, with most of the salary in either roster bonuses, or on the field performance incentives. This could alleviate a lot of the health concerns teams may have for Manning, and make it easier to sign the leagues only 4-time MVP.

I'm not saying Eskin is wrong. Just need to hear it from more people. The buzz on Manning has been so hard to keep up with. Again, me personally I'd sign him if healthy.
Heard about the flexible contract. Also have heard post career ownership is another option

As in, will we trade up? Hear we're trying but I don't see it. Either trading down in 1st or moving up in 2nd is how I see it. I'm guessing Tannehill or Foles is their draft pick, along with a veteran they acquire via trade or free agency.

How much of a stake are we talking?

Do you want me to cry? Is that what you want? Do you want to see me cry?

No idea.
I think it would be foolish not to consider Manning if he's healthy

Actually yes, I do. I think for Luck they'll make an offer to move up. I'm not so sure if they'll do the same for RG3.
