Matt Barkley Stays (QB Draft Prospect Thread-Episode IV)

[diehard]

Listening to the Colts' Irsay, this whole scenario with Peyton Manning's contract extension when the team knew he was hurt, and the handicapped Colts possibly in position to draft Luck is sounding more and more like a setup.

Curious how so many of you laughed when I suggested Bradford could be available. Look who's laughing now. Anyway, he's not the QB (QBs) I was told about. Unfortunate, since I kind of wish he was. Still, I suppose he's a possibility, however remote it could be. Expecting to maybe get some more info today. Not sure though, since it's the holidays

I would rather have Bradford than anybody in the draft

I want him to, if only to get a chance to have the PC argument regarding Bradford's heritage that we were robbed of.

I would doubt PM would have any interest in dressing out in the B&G.....
He has 13 Swiss and offshore accounts and his body clock is ticking. Perhaps a team a little closer to a legit SB run......

I think the perfect team for Peyton would be the 49ers. They have all the pieces in place for a contender for years except the QB position.

It reminds me of the situation with the Vikings a few years back when they were stacked and being held back by Tavaris Jackson. Insert Brett Farve and they go to the NFC Championship game.

I think the perfect team for Manning is Washington. As long as he can put himself on the field.

I just can't believe the Colts will let Peyton play somewhere else if he's healthy. I don't think that will happen. Nice thought, but can't see it. You might say 28 million is a lot of money, but think about the money Manning generates in revenue, wins.

If St Louis lands in the 1 spot, I'm not sure they would trade Bradford immediately anyway.

These quarterback rumors are more depressing then anything. So sad.

It's pretty funny. It's December, we're still in season, and it's all that's talked about.

Hey, it's fun to speculate though. The only thing I'm sure about is that none of us knows what's going to happen.

from what i am gathering, it seems as if alot of teams plans hinge on rg3's plans now. since barkley did not declare and appears to be staying. there are 2 things i could see happening, as it pertains to the skins.

#1 - we get sam bradford, rams draft rg3 and reload with a bunch of pix from the skins. i do not think we give away our first rounder this year for him, due to some slick negotiating from allen and shanny, but we will definitely give this years second rounder with maybe cooley or davis, plus a first and third next year or something around that for him. Hopefully this is the year that bruce allen really earns his paycheck and makes something like this happen. the rams desperately need playmakers on the ball, and the one area of strength for us is te. it would also give rg3 a reliable necessary option for him at the most important position for a young qb, a reliable te.

#2 - skins just go bpa with their first round pick, and go for our quarterback in the second round in foles or tannehill. this could also mean maneuvering with players/picks in order to move up/down to get whoever is higher on shanahans board, which alot of people around here think is tannehill. this route might also be the best way to stockpile picks or add some by moving down the boards, and still getting the guy we originally were targeting. this is where allen/shanny again will earn their paychecks, and our scouting department will show if they have done their homework.

either way, i think the fan base in washington will be appeased for the moment. the skins would actually have a valid quarterback, or a young stud ready to start on the road to greatness.

the only scenario i hope we do not see is mike shanahan sticking with what he has right now. that would cause the fans in dc to bear arms, and start to riot, if the quarterback question in the district goes unanswered heading into may of 2012.
