    Rams are in a REALLY good position. They've already stated they are not going to give up on Bradford, so that leaves a multitude of teams needing a QB to be eyeing trade options for that #2.

    Redskins
    Dolphins
    Browns....

    Redskins are willing to offer 2012 1st, 2nd, and 2013 2nd from what I hear.

    Browns I heard a few weeks ago can offer 3 #1 picks.

    All I can say is, I would pick the Rams to be a greatly improved team next year.

    Or the Rams can take Justin Blackmon.

    Stupid move if they did..... They have alot more holes to fill and this is a draft they have to knock out of the ball park.

    Stephen Jackson is about ready to jump in the ice box, Bradford seems to be injury prone, they finally have a decent receiver to throw to, they could bolster their Oline, their defense is young and promising, but still a good 3 pieces away from being a top 5 D in the league.

    Stupid freaking Colts have one bad year, and are handed Peyton Manning Jr. They have other holes for sure, but man some teams have all the luck (no pun intended).

    Luck still has a year of eligibility if he chooses.

    Didn't he already graduate? Unless he just wants to win a heisman, I don't see any reason he would stay. He already has the #1 pick locked up, he really has nothing left to gain by staying.

    He had no 1 locked up last year too. I guess he could go back to school if the colts keep no 1 pick.

    I doubt Luck is Peyton Manning Jr.

    They really need to be careful (Colts), this season could've been a blessing in disguise:

    You realize how many HOLES you actually have on that team, and now have a very "Wanted" #1 pick in this years draft that teams will let you rebuild your entire team in one year for.

    If Peyton is healthy for them, let him play this year out, and with all those picks (5 or 6 additional to what they currently have), either trade those to get veterans on the team, or draft young, high skill guys who know how to play the game and try to pick up Barkley in 2013. They could be a AFC title contender for atleast 10 years with a revamped defense, another receiver, and Barkley at the helm.
