Becuase they might very likely have to pay him more in a bidding war.

a free agent Manning only signs with 1 team of his choice....and the Colts get nothing for 1 of the 2 best QBs of his era.

That's not beneficial to the Colts and it's not risk-free for the 3-4 teams who are desperate to get a QB.

Is there any bidding war that could approach his actual salary? -- nm - David Jan 28, 17:09 7
- I don't know his actual figures, but 28mil as a bonus in March .... you don't think someone won't give him a larger signing bonus then that? - Will Hunting Jan 28, 17:14 5
  - Dude, it's not about the money. It's about the cap space. Snyder has the money. What he doesn't have is the cap space. - David Jan 28, 17:19 1
    - Yeah...and Danny Boy's exactly that dumb. - Will Hunting Jan 28, 17:21
  - See below. 44 mil. -- nm - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 28, 17:14 2
    - All I know, Dan Snyder paid Albert Haynesworth $40mil over 2 yrs in the dumbest contract ever. - Will Hunting Jan 28, 17:16

Oh, the Colts would love to trade him before his cash deadline, I just don't expect anyone to bite. - Spawn - Blood Feud Lord and Master Jan 28, 17:09
