Peyton Manning or RGIII your choice

If Peyton is cleared by the team doctors I would rather take Peyton Manning and select another quarterback in the later rds. Next season you have Matt Barkley and Landry Jones coming out.

So what? We would have to trade away everything to get into the top 5 next year just like this year. And going that route you would have a raw, low round QB prospect who isn't ready to play and when Peyton get's the knockout blow for his career somewhere in the first 3 weeks, then what do we have for the rest of the season? Rex Grossman. No thank you.

Agree. If somebody told you, that you had a greater than 50% shot of winning the lottery you would probably pay a high price for that ticket. Drafting a franchise QB is kind of like that. The risk is there, but the upside is worth it. In order to succeed in the playoffs you need a franchise QB. The teams that don’t have one are a revolving door getting into the playoffs every so often then having a few years not being there, with minimal success in the playoffs. In order to have longevity you need that QB. I think they have to make a play for RG3.

Matt Barkley will be the number 1 pick and Landry Jones wasn't that great of a prospect to begin with. This is the big class. Next years class will be worse. Maybe Tyler Wilson stays hot but if he's a top 5 pick then we'll have to trade up to get him which will probably cost a pretty penny. If Tyler Wilson goes cold no one will want him then it will be all about the 2014 class.

Either way the 2013 QB class is projecting to be much weaker depth and talent wise then 2012. Heck from what I've seen the 2013 class has the potential to be downright ugly.

2013: Matt Barkley, Tyler Wilson, Landry Jones............EJ Manual?

vs

2012: Andrew Luck, RGIII, Ryan Tannehill, Brock Osweiler, Nick Foles, Brandon Weeden.
