You just can't say anything negative about this guy other than his one performance that he looked human against Oregon (a la Brady vs. the Browns).
Andrew Luck will not be taken 1st overall because of a team desperate to sell some tickets and wants to take the best quarterback regardless of if he's a top 5 talent (Sanchez, I would argue Stafford). Andrew Luck will be taken because if he's anything short of a 5 time pro-bowler I think 70% of scouts would be shocked.

I don't agree with you in regards to your Matthew Stafford comparison. When he came out even though he wasn't regarded as the can't miss prospect of the next decade, he was widely regarded as the best quarterback in the draft and a no doubt top 5 pick. Nobody saw his injury issues coming, he didn't have much of an injury history coming out of college, what's happened to him in the NFL has just been unfortunate. I still think when healthy he can be a great quarterback in the NFL.
