  1. Yeah, but don't you think that's because team's are drafting out of pure necessity? Take Cam Newton for instance. New coach, new system, relatively uncompetitive team, he had to start, no questions asked. If for no other reason, to put butts in seats.

    Players will do what coaches tell them to do, and if Colts "coaches" tell Luck to watch and learn, then he will. Carson Palmer did it in Cincy, right? And he was behind Jon Kitna. The only way a #1 draft pick totally dictates when they play is if they go out in preseason and outperform the starter, and I don't see Luck outperforming Peyton Manning, especially after this season, the chip on Manning's shoulder will be mighty big.

    Long story short, this team has tons of weaknesses, but most are on the defensive side of the ball. They can always go out and grab a free agent or two to fill a couple of those voids. But as far as the draft goes, they have to take the best player available with the #1 pick, and that'll be Luck, in my opinion. The media will make a bigger deal out of it than need be, which means we'll all make a big deal out of it as well, but I don't see any other option.

    This is how I feel!!!

    If we have this opportunity for another great franchise QB, we take it. We won't have this opportunity again...hopefully!
