The Rams would trade Bradford for a bag up peanuts if Luck fell in their lap. the Colts owner is a loose cannon but he is not stupid. Luck will be a Colt.

Brian Hoyer-New England Patriots

Chad Henne-New York Jets

Josh Johnson-Seattle Seahawks

Kyle Orton-St. Louis Rams

Jason Campbell-Chicago Bears
So in this scenario, what would happen to Kolb in AZ? I recall I did a similar projection with Manning to AZ, Kolb to Cleveland (reunited with former Philly coaches and front office personnel) and Flynn to Miami. Kolb is due a nice chunk of change in March and Skelton played well enough to be a primary backup.

So Campbell's days as a starter are done? I'd think he could contend for the starting job in Seattle, KC, Miami, Cleveland and be an experienced QB in waiting in Denver should the full season Tebow experiment go awry.

Um Kolb to Jacksonville? Or heck even Campbell there.

I mean these are just some rumored options. Nothing etched in stone.

Re: Eight QBs and Where The Latest Rumors Have Them Going

Would new England even be willing to trade hoyer? If so what would it take? And would he come in as the undisputed starter?

If that happens the Rams will be able to draft a super bowl roster in the next two drafts.

RGIII play style is more like a faster Steve Young IMO

I don't know why I never liked Steve Young. Montana yes, Young no. I guess it was I thought of him as an idiot (Elway type) and would trip over his own feet when scrambling. I'm not an RGIII but definitely don't like the comparison.

NFL Teams have been watching Luck since he came to Stanford.

Re: Eight QBs and Where The Latest Rumors Have Them Going

We need to prepare ourselves for the possibility that we may not land our Franchise QB this season.

First, there will be a number of other teams who will be trying just as hard as we will be to land a Franchise QB. We may simply be outmaneuvered by a couple of other teams.

Peyton Manning is going somewhere and, with the stage of rebuilding we're currently in, I don't think it will be here. He's almost certainly going to sign where nearly all of the pieces are already in place for him to have a good shot at ending his career with a glorious Super Bowl winning season. That seems to me to be what the great Peyton Manning would want to do. He won't be going anywhere just to get a paycheck. BTW, we may all be surprised by the team he picks. The Jets? The Ravens? The Texans?

Secondly, I believe that RGIII will make a spectacular impression at the NFL Combine, on and off the field. Teams, even some unexpected teams, will be trying to top one another's offers to St. Louis to move up to #2 in the draft. As I stated here before, if Cleveland wants RGIII bad enough, they'll get him because having the #4 pick and the #22 pick sets up a situation that is just about perfect for St. Louis to have a remarkable draft if they trade the #2 pick to Cleveland.

And, of course, Andrew Luck will be picked either #1 or #2.

That's it folks! You now have the complete list of potential Franchise QB's projected to be available in 2012.

So what should we do?

1. Load up as much as we can in FA in anticipation of having fewer draft picks this year if we are fortunate enough to trade for the #2 pick.

2. Sign a mid-level QB in FA who can be either the interim starter or the backup.

3. Do everything possible, even beyond reasonable, to acquire the #2 pick.

4a. If we get the #2 pick, wait to see who Indy takes between Luck and Griffin III and then put in our card one picosecond later for the other one.

4b. If we don't get the #2 pick, then proceed with the draft in normal fashion, targeting a good young QB in the early rounds.

The plan seems rather simple to me but, as the old saying goes, the devil is in the details.

I think I heard that RG3 won't be throwing at the combine. I think he and Tannehill are just doing measurements and interviews. Maybe the 40 for RG3 but I'm not sure
