Combine all of the answers above and there is your answer.
Even if Manning comes back what happens when he's gone in 2-3 years?
Whether they trade Peyton or keep him it doesn't matter they need to take Luck either way.
UNLESS.... Another team makes an offer of draft picks for Manning that is just too good to turn down.
When you think of that big fat QB from LSU the Raiders drafted #1 Sam Bradford #1 either RGIII or Luck are heads & tails above most of the #1 QB's drafted in the recent past. It's close between Luck and the Heisman both are fabulous but Luck is the slightly better choice, he was great against OSU. If the pick Luck Manning to Miami would be a good fit!
There are other QBs in the draft other than Luck. 2-3 years is plenty of time to groom someone learning under Manning. If you remember, there was a guy drafted by the Packers quite a few years ago who sat and learned from a legend and is now one of the best in the game. The colts WILL draft a QB this year, there is no question about that. But it does not have to be Luck, especially if Manning returns...
