Andrew Luck skipping NFL draft, will return to Stanford Cardinal - ESPN

Doggone it. Not that I thought that we would get him, but his presence may have pushed better QB's down towards us.

Good for Luck, though, in valuing his college experience.

Re: This Just In---Andrew Luck To Stay At Stanford

He's an idiot. Jake Locker could have been the #1 overall pick last year ($50M guaranteed), and now there's a chance he may not even go until very late in the 1st round. He lost tens of millions of dollars for what? A season in which he regressed playing for a lousy team.

Andrew Luck is holding on to a $50M (at least) lottery ticket. He's foolish for not cashing it ASAP, especially with Harbaugh leaving. He can always go back to Stanford and finish his degree.

Yep, the push down factor may have screwed us a bit.

This. Between the specter of a looming rookie salary cap, and his "guaranteed" #1 overall pick by the panthers, he is forfeiting far more than the value of a 4th year of college. I am not even implying that the education isn't inherently valuable, but it can be gained at many points in the future, he will not see 50Mill+ next year regardless of where he is picked.

I bet the Panthers are officially irked.

Wow, he's going to lose out on a lot of $$

You can always finish up school later, gotta cash in while you can.

I'm not surprised now. I kind of figured that if one of them left than so would the other and vise versa. Then again, I still could be wrong.

That's what they said about the Rams, anything is possible.. I'd take the cash in a heartbeat.. Sam stayed at OU when he could have been the Number 1 pick, he got hurt in the first game the following season... He was very lucky last year due to the horrible QB class.

Dumb move by Luck. Lienart did this in 2005 and went from sure No. 1 to the 10th pick in 2006 - Lost (literally) millions. Plus, as a second contract is no guarrantee, play your winning lottery ticket and then go back to school (or do it in the off season, part-time, etc.)

He is also somewhere between mediocre and freaking really good on the QB scale. You can probably place where he is on that scale. That might have something to do with it. I think he'd look mighty fine in Burgundy and Gold myself...

Rookie cap may kick in for this year's draft. He wouldn't have known before he had to declare anyway
