If the Colts don't trade manning, from a personnel standpoint, it'd be incredibly stupid.

you see this year how far that team has to go to be competitive; and what better way to jump-start your rebuilding process than to trade away one of the handful greatest QB's to ever play.

Of course, with Polian drafting, that might not matter much since he's been woeful the last 3-4 years.

The best will be when they trade Manning, who still manages a few years of all-pro level productivity, *and* Luck becomes a bust. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 16, 10:07 6
- Just like Sanders. - Spawn Nov 16, 11:17
- You take your chances with that....but they have to risk it; multiple neck surgeries...it isn't that his arm is slowing - Will Hunting Nov 16, 10:09 4
  - I agree that they should trade him; but, they made the choice, when they re-signed him to put his value over improving holes - flavorize Nov 16, 10:17 2
    - He won 10 games last year...paying him seems to be a winning proposition. - Will Hunting Nov 16, 10:19 1
      - I imagine, offering a 3rd rounder would get you a better QB than Painter - flavorize Nov 16, 10:25
  - Yep. With Luck, you potentially have the ability to go 20+ years with two lynchpin QBs. That has tremendous value. - Richard Attenborough Nov 16, 10:12
