in a strategy that involves staying put, is there any rule which prevents the skins for trading for RG3, if drafted before the 6th pick?
Well, Eli Manning got traded to the Giants after getting picked by the Chargers, so no, shouldn't be any rule that prevents a trade after the fact.

No need to get you panties in a bunch to try and move up from #6.
Most if not all of the teams picking ahead of us are already heavily committed (big bucks) to young QB's. So what is our desperation to give away draft picks when we sit at #6? Look at who is picking ahead of us:
1) Colts - already have Peyton Manning and have a so many needs. They take Luck.
2) Rams - Already have Bradford
3) Vikings - heavily invested in Ponder
4) Browns - already have McCoy
5) Tampa Bay - Already have Josh Freemen
6) Skinnies
I say stay where we are and let see what happens.
It doesn't sound like the Browns are necessarily sold on Colt McCoy, and I think they could very well pick RG III if he's still on the board at #4.

Freeman is a guy that I can see being moved.
McCoy sucks

It's only January. For all we know, the Browns may stick with McCoy for another year. More will come out in the next couple months. The gut though is that they take RG3.
Just asking, any chance that the Colts DONT select a qb at #1 and wait late and pick someone like Foles or Tannehill? Or maybe wait until next year and take Barkley or Jones?

Luck will be a colt man........no way he doesnt have a horseshoe on his helmet next year

Assuming Peyton is 100%, you dont even see them taking someone late like Tannehill or Foles?

If you already have someone like Bradford etc you can let anyone trade into that spot.. I wouldn't call ponder a heavy investment though he was first round.. you think the browns are so set on McCoy that they wouldn't take rg3? Lol!

I think there is no way in hell, by fair means or foul, by soft words and hard deeds...
by treachery, by cunning, by malpractice... they do not take multiple plunges unto the QB pool in FA and the draft this year.

You won't know if Peyton is healthy until way after the draft. You can't hope and pray he lasts another 4 years. Them neglecting to draft his heir is what put them drafting at the #1 spot this year.
Only way the Colts don't draft Luck is if somehow their draft phone disconnects when they try to relay their pick to the commissioner.
I still laugh at the pitiful Skins fans still deluding themselves that somehow we draft up and select Luck. Why even set yourself up for disappointment like that?

For the record, I never said I want us to select Luck. Im an RG3 guy. I was just asking hypothetically. You never know what may happen unless you're some kinda psychic, which you're not. We'll just have to wait until April 26.
But I still think Luck will be number 1 though :)
