This would be the perfect scenario.

1) Sign Peyton Manning to 3 year contract.
2) Draft Justin Blackmon in the 1st round.
3) Draft Foles (or Tannehill if he's available) in the 2nd round


I would do back flips over this scenario.

This would really be the only scenario that I wouldn't hate with us bringing in Manning and Tannehill. I don't like either one of them as an independent option but I think Tannehill being at least 2 years from being an NFL starter and Manning likely having only about 3 years left at a high level, that could be a good succession plan. I'd love to see us get Blackmon, we need a playmaking WR as badly as a QB IMO. I'd favor this over any Flynn scenario and just below trading up for RGIII.
