I'd prefer Manning and Tannehill, but I'd be willing to give it a shot...so yeah....but like Matty said, for plan B.

I'd be thrilled with a healthy Peyton Manning or RGIII. Either one and I'm satisfied.

I REALLY hope we don't go the Manning route. Anyone but him. I hope this front office is getting away from that quick fix style. Cousins would seem like a solid pick in the 2nd or 3rd round.

dont think thats a bad thing. You save picks and possibly players.

Heard Chris Landry rave about Cousins after the combine. All the intangibles he rated as outstanding and on the field does everything good (arm strength, accuracy, reading defense) but nothing great. Landry went on to say a mid range draft pick with the potential to be a solid starter after sitting on the bench learning a system.

Is the team seriously considering this or are you just throwing stuff out there?

Not just throwing it out there

lol, i didnt mean thowing out there as just throwing crap, but was more trying to ask legitmate speculation vs. based on actual rumors youve heard....

although id still take weeden and dixon over beck and grossman.

i'd be extremely excited about manning/cousins.

however, i'd also be extremely excited about trading a buttload of picks for griffin (i've actually warmed up to the guy. i started out dead-opposed to griffin b/c i thought he was not worth trading up for. im still not overly impressed with highlight reels ive seen as the competition isnt all that great but ive listened to a few interviews with him and am sold. he seems to have all the intangibles you could ever want in a qb. hes got the confidence of grossman and its actually backed up by this little thing called talent.

in the end, i think id prefer going manning/cousins, saving our draft picks, and signing wayne/garcon and saturday to give the offense the smoothest possible transition. cousins is nowhere near ready to start, but has tons of potential and the intangibles you want. he'd need a few years behind manning.

From what we all know as of right now, Manning does appear to be plan B if the Rams to do accept what we are offering for the #2 pick, so Manning is definately in the picture with said rookie to be named at the draft.

Cousins will be a career back up....but I'd take him over Grossbeck.

If Manning got hurt then Cousins would be our starter? Are we trying to relive the 2011 Colts?

Cousins in particular or any later round developmental QB?

Manning + a 1st round OT + a later round QB (4th round or down) is awesome.
I would much prefer Russell Wilson but as long as its Manning + OT I would be okay with any developmental QB.

I'd be more than ok with that.

I'd really like Manning/RG3(for cheap) but I already ate all my cake.
