I'd rather start fresh on the draft.
If you are referencing the Manning rumor, I just want to point out that the insider said if this was on condition of the following:


1) Indy cut Peyton and he become a FA
2) RGIII and Barkley didn't declare


Not sure you would be breaking the bank on Manning as a Free Agent really, and give him just enough contract years to groom a QB you choose to draft during that time. I would be fine with this scenario as long as it didn't mean us giving draft picks.


Now not sure about the rumor Smoot is talking about in regards to "franchise altering", but he did mention that the QB was young so I would gather he had more than just a "few" years left.
