The Colts would have taken that deal in a second I think. Then they can resign Manning to a more manageable contract instead of giving him his 30 mill bonus.

Take the deal from teh Redskins, Luck goes to Redskins, and the Colts resign Manning and get a shit ton of talent. That would have been win win for both organizations.

Instead, they get the guy in RGIII that is probably going to turn out like I expected Cam Newton to last year. Difference is, Cam played at a major college versus Baylor.

Redskin fans have to be kicking themselves. Maybe they can all become Bengal fans now. :)

To be fair to all the Big 12 fans on these boards, Baylor is a major college. They play in a BCS conference.

Rams would be wise to continue to trade down if they don't have someone there they absolutely love. The team needs to fill multiple holes and upgrade overall talent.

They can fleece the Bengals now. Bengals trade both their 1st round picks this year for Richardson, and the Rams can rebuild their entire roster this year. haha

You better watch yourself Crash -- Those Longhorn, Cowboy, and Sooner fans might chase you down.

I guess. That division seems to have taken a big hit in talent lately though.

Maybe he will be good. Hell I don't know. I was butt ass wrong about Cam Newton. Maybe these college QB's are just more prepared for the NFL now a days. I guess we will wait and see.

I still would not have given the Rams 3 1st round picks and a 2nd for a college QB. Given that much for Luck would have been kinda dumb in my opinion, but would have been more warranted IMO.

Can't disagree here..... They gave up WAY too much. I think RG3 looks like a special talent - Athletic, smart, good size, etc..... But 3 first round picks? No thanks.

Funny thing is the Redskins have a horrible coach for a new QB coming into the league. They are going to ruin RGIII and he will be called a flop due to a crappy coach for a QB.
