Who would trade for Manning?

And the dumbest move mentioned is for the Colts to trade the #1, then look for a QB in 2 years. You don’t pass up franchise QBs when one falls in your lap, just because the timing didn’t PERFECTLY match up. You take the QB that will have you back competing for Super Bowls for the next 15 years, and start getting the ring of honor ready for the old guy.

I'm pretty sure we gave up the 18th overall and receives Montana and Popson in return.
