Be the GM
This will be a repeating feature. We will take each position in turn. For each position we will look at the players we already have on the roster and whether those player should be retained, resigned, traded, or cut. We will also discuss whether we need help in the draft, trades or free agency. The first position is the most obvious position for the team QUARTERBACK.
Currently on the roster we have: Matt Cassel under contract under contract $5million Kyle Orton FA Ricky Stanzi under contract approx $550,000 Tyler Palko RFA |
As I've said elsewhere, I think the firing of the Polians in INdy puts that first overall in play.
I package draft picks and players, including our best players, like DJ and Berry, if necessary, to move up to take Luck. |

Please, nobody show your ignorance and say we need to trade for Manning. He is owed a $28 million bonus the week before the league season starts. The Colts are not going to pay him that money then trade him. He is either an FA or a Colt.

But I agree that #1 might be in play, and I'd give up anything to get it. Or at least make an offer that Indy has to consider. Lets face it, your R1/R2 picks are usually best used on skill positions. We are in good shape there. We need help with a few line positions and depth. Those can be taken later in the draft. If they can lock up Bowe and Carr, this team could get by without early picks for a few years, provided they draft decently in the later rounds. It'll never happen, but it's what should happen. |

Hell, they can have Albert and some of our foundational players on both sides of the ball if they want. I'd also be up for giving our first half of the draft this year and a bunch of our draft next year. |
I would give our 1st, 2nd and next year's first for Minnesota's pick. That should be able to get Griffin unless somebody offers the Rams something better.

Something like:
Our 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th in 2012 and our 1st, 3rd, 4th in 2013 For Luck. And even that probably won't be enough :( |

They also saw how valuable a safety id in today's NFL first hand. If the first pick is in play, and they pay Manning the bonus, they'll be in win now mode. They need players that contribute right away. |

i saw Tony Dungy talking about the Colts and the 1st pick and he said RG3 had moved ahead of Luck as the number one overall pick in his opinion.

You re-sign Orton.
Keep Stanzi, Cassel and Palko on the roster and let them duke it out for a roster spot with whatever new guys come in. Cut whoever doesn't make it. Bring in new guys via the draft. Scientifically assess your best chance of getting a top QB. As I mentioned in another thread, that may not be trading up to get the top prospects if you're giving up a ton of picks. You may be able to pour those picks into quarterbacks and sort them out until you get the right QB. But either way, invest draft picks into getting QB prospects that you can evaluate as you search for the right guy. |
