BmoreColt Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 Luck would be the obvious best QB. But a number 1 overall pick isnt drafted to be a back-up. They are expected to be a franchise QB. I am not against Luck. I am against Luck being a bench warmer for 4 years. Of the rest, I would want for a back up would go.1 Foles2 Orlovsky3 Moore4 Me or you5 PainterFoles has the highest ceiling of the other back ups. He needs a year or two on the bench to develop where Luck does not.Moore also may be able to be a startiing QB with a couple years.I dont want to draft anyone number one and then wait for the return for 4 years.If Irsay already has decided to cut ties with Peyton then I am all for Luck.This is how most of us feel in the trade the pick corner! But the luck lovers can't fathom this, it's luck and Peyton or nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrizzColt Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Moore may go undrafted. The scouts are saying he looks simply awful.http://www.mockingthedraft.com/2012/1/24/2730621/senior-bowl-kellen-moores-flaws-being-exposed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrizzColt Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 As far as starting QB, I've heard Irsay and Polian both mention that Luck and RG3 are the only viable options. Polian isn't blowing smoke, because I heard him say it this morning on Mike and Mike. Since he no longer works for the Colts, he has no reason to hide anything. Now, some of you don't want to grab Luck because we could use other positions. Well, after we draft Luck or RG3, it seems to me we don't need to waste a valuable pick on a backup. Just keep Orlovsky and give him more reps in practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COLTS7 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 There will be...............at least...........a half dozen Qb's available the next 1-3 years, that can lead a great team to the promised land and they won't be rquired, to be drafted #1 overall..this just in...........the world and the future doesn't revolve around 1 player.

UndecidedFrog Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 There will be...............at least...........a half dozen Qb's available the next 1-3 years, that can lead a great team to the promised land and they won't be rquired, to be drafted #1 overall..this just in...........the world and the future doesn't revolve around 1 player.Why wait until next year? Here is a list of available QBs this year that are projected to go undrafted:Tyler HansenJarrett LeeDominique DavisGJ KinneBo Levi MitchellJordan JeffersonJohn BrantleyJacory HarrisMarshall LobbestaelBarrett TrotterStephen GarciaDan PersaZach CollarosNathan DickChester StewartTyler LantripBrian ReaderNate MontanaChris ForcierMike BrownDane SimoneauMatt SimmsDavid LegreeJJ McDermottCody EndresYou can pick any of them up without spending a pick. However, more likely than not, none of them will lead you to the promised land. I also doubt very much that any non-first round QB picked in any draft will be more likely to lead you to the promised land than a 1st-round QB. If the promised land is SB wins, 24/45 SB winning teams were led by a 1st round QB.To get to the promised land (SB wins), you are more likely to succeed if you pick a highly rated QB. Highly rated QBs get picked early in the first round, even as the #1 overall pick (e.g. Peyton). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UndecidedFrog Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 But the luck lovers can't fathom this, it's luck and Peyton or nothing.I doubt very much that all those who favor picking Luck want a Peyton & Luck scenario. Don't forget the release/cut Peyton and start Luck scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Cannon Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 There no such thing as a sure fire pick but i do think that Dan O should be retained as a number 3 qb even if we draft Luck or whoever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
