Would Peyton Manning Stop The Colts From Taking Luck?

So if the Colts lose out and get the 1st pick would Peyton Manning stop them from drafting Andrew Luck. In Manning's eyes he probably doesn't want to see him there and thinks he has 3-4 more good years in Indianapolis.

I think if anything this year proves that Peyton Manning is the most important player to his team than any other player in the NFL (Nothing against Tom Brady, but it's true). The Colts are horrifically bad this year, so it comes to the question, do you think the Colts should still build around Peyton and roll the dice that another QB will come along in a couple years or move on.

I think that if the Colts do get the number 1 pick they may be better served trading it for a shit load of picks and still build around Peyton. When healthy he will still be a top 5 qb at the worst and I don't see much difference between QBs like Luck and Landry Jones or Matt Barkley in the NFL, so there will always be guys.

No Matter What They Say Manning Is Done For Year

"During a business breakfast with Super Bowl donors Monday, Colts owner Jim Irsay announced that Peyton Manning could miss the entire season while he recovers from offseason neck surgery, according to a reports out of Indianapolis.

After the reports surfaced, Irsay sent out a tweet clarifying his comments and indicating there remains a possibility of a late-season return by the veteran quarterback: I didn't say Peyton out 4season FOR SURE,keeping him on ActiveRoster n taking it month by month/Outside chance of return n December possible," Irsay wrote (WEEI)."

The Colts are 0-3 and they will be lucky to win more then 3 games all year. So, there is really no point for Manning coming back this year. I wrote about this before, but how interesting will it be if the Colts have the #1 pick? Would think pick Luck? I mean Manning can't have too long left in the NFL, so I would think they would have to. It would be a very interesting situation. Imagine if they go from Manning to Luck and have back-to-back franchise QBs without any kind of break? As you can tell I am sold that Luck is going to be a top 5 QB within his first 3 seasons in the NFL.

Anyways, Manning is done for this year.
