That's what I've read, anyway. I haven't actually looked it up myself.

Knowing Dan Gilbert, if WAS has the 4th pick, I think he calls for either the 1st overall or for Peyton. They have the highest draft pick for a team needing a QB

Yeah, the Cavs decided basketball wasn't their thing and are becoming a football franchise.

The "elite" scouting report of Andrew Luck is a bit much. It's ESPN trying to bring huge fucking hype to this guy.

Is he a damn good prospect? Hell yeah. Is he flawless? No.

In a perfect world, I want to have both of them on our roster and let that play out. I just don't see that happening.

Let me just say this. If Peyton was to come back, I don't see enough in certain areas where we are lacking to make the true push for the Super Bowl. I think that our offense will drastically increase again with Manning, and obviously our record would be back and in playoff contention. However, the defense is truly an area that is fucking atrocious. I mean. Fucking atrocious. The secondary has been beat up by injuries, but the front office moves that Polian has made by letting Hayden and Tryon walk are showing up in a bad way.

I think it's best for the franchise to rebuild with Andrew Luck. As tough as it is for me to say. I think this team needs a big time overhaul, especially on the defensive side of the football. It's going to take serious time to do so therefore go with the younger of the two options and groom him.

Oh yeah, and a fucking new staff.... entirely. Caldwell is a clown.

Peyton Manning's trade value still has to be a first rounder, right?

He's progressing and throwing the football now. I mean, if all signs check out and Peyton shows the green light for playing he has to be worth at least one first rounder.

Oregon junior running back LaMichael James will declare for the NFL draft, a school source told The Oregonian on Wednesday.

A school spokesman told the paper that he spoke to James, who said he had not made a final decision yet.

James has rushed for 1,646 yards and 17 touchdowns despite missing two games with a dislocated elbow.

The 5-foot-9, 185-pound James was a Heisman Trophy finalist last year, but fell out of the race this season after being injured on Oct. 6 against California.

There was speculation last season that James might bolt for the NFL, but he announced before the BCS championship game against Auburn that he was staying.

James will lead Oregon (11-2) against Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl Game presented by Vizio on Jan. 2.

I wonder if he found out was his draft stock is.
Because I thought he would stay. IMO he's a late 2nd rounder, but I doubt he would declare if that's all he's been told he's worth.

After his injury scare earlier in the year, I doubt he cares if hes goes 1st or 2nd round. One play and he could blow out his knee.

The feeling is that #USC QB Matt Barkley is leaning towards
returning to #USC rather than entering the #NFLdraft. Potential 1st pick in '13.
