yes, possible
but the general consensus is that Luck doesn't need to sit for 3 years to be ready to go and all you would be doing is delaying his takeover. Also Manning is still playing at a high level so
IF HE'S HEALTHY then you probably don't want to waste his playing years.
Manning uses too much cap space for the team upgrade in free agency too much. By using the 1st round pick on Luck you're basically saying that Manning is a lame duck QB and you are planning for the future. I just don't see how they do that with a guy that is as revered and productive as Manning.
You can't sit Luck
You can't flush Manning's productive years
If Manning is healthy i still think you have to trade the pick or trade Manning
