There really should be a lottery similar to what the NBA has for the 1st pick of the draft. It was so obvious that the Colts purposely tanked their season.

whatswiththehate still whining because Cam Newton only went first overall. Just imagine where he could have been picked if he was white!

Isray early in the season inferred they were going to suck for Luck… they had the gall to actually do it… and now Luck is getting the standard #1 pick contract no matter what…

and the Colts thus cheat all the teams who really deserve a shot at a great pick… and get away with it… it’s the most unfair event to ever happen in the draft….

there really isn’t a reason for Luck to even show up… it’s not like he’s Tebow and he’s trying to fool a sucker team into a big contract under the old CBA…

Wow this season draft feels very much like last year. Only difference is, a black QB was the better choice but the predominately white folks in the NFL sporting world didn’t want him so they set out to distroy him however they could. Just like Luck with RG III, Blaine Gabbert, another white QB, was perceived to be the “more safer” QB of the 2011 draft and was being pushed to go ahead of Cam.

I ‘m guess Luck doesn’t have to throw or do anything since his many fathers in the media have chosen him over RGIII based on nothing more than his Pro-Style offense.

I’m sure like Cam and his so called inaccuracies, RG III will be picked apart before the draft is over, while we’re expected to believe that Luck’s weaknesses are no big deal, just like Blaine Gabbert. I guess because those in the media know, unlike, RG III and Cam, the team is made to believe that they have to RESPECT their QB. Unless, the QB looks like them.

Andrew won’t be available to throw as he was apprehended by Smokey The Bear over careless match handling during a camping trip last fall.

You guys aren’t getting it.

The point of a player attending the combine is to increase his value, right?

Andrew Luck’s value cannot increase. He’s going #1 overall, no matter what.

So why show up- because someone dares him to?

They gave Manning a multi-billion dollar contract without verifying his neck was all right, so why do they need to see what Luck can do?

The Colts have already had their once in a lifetime player. It’s going to be so fitting when their so called second once in a lifetime player falls on his face. Besides any team that goes 2-14 just b/c one player goes down doesn’t deserve jack. Pathetic.

if your pathetic hapless dolphins had just been slightly more pathetic and gotten the first pick, you’d be singing his praises and calling him the next Manning…. your homerism is blinding your judgment.

did Aaron Rodgers ask the 49ers if he should throw at his scouting combine?

He doesn’t need to throw but the Colts might want to, you know, have him pass a physical before handing over things like a $28 million guaranteed bonus.

“I mean, isn’t that what you will be doing in the pros…? Throwing to guys you don’t know?”

Umm…no. That’s why there is pre-camp, camp, pre-season etc.

why wouldn’t you throw, you’re a quarterback, you should be used to throwing and the colts should want to see him throw so they can assess how he does under these circumstances…

I want to be a quarterback but I’m not going to throw the ball..

Brilliant!

Probably not a bad idea. The more time Newton spent with Whitfield last year, the worse his throwing became in the workouts. Cam had a better completion percentage playing against NFL defenses than he did throwing without pressure on an open field prior to the draft.

Good call dude. The last thing you want to see a QB do to show off his skills is throw the football.

Since he called the Colts asking if he should throw, it kind of puts a damper on the belief he will pull an Elway.

WOW! So a team is telling a college prospect NOT to throw at the combine! It is hypocritical then for teams to complain about athletes not doing things at the combine!

I still dont see why QBs are so afraid to throw at the underwear Olympics…

I mean, isn’t that what you will be doing in the pros…? Throwing to guys you don’t know?

What’s next, a RB who won’t run the shuttle drill or D-Lineman who wont hit the pads? Geeeeshhh…

If you are the Colts you don’t ask him to skip drills. They are about to make a significant investment in both money and a pick. I know they’ll work him out privately, but don’t you want to see him at the combine? Doesn’t make sense, but neither does signing him this early. Why would the colts take the risk by signing him this far in advance of drafting him? What if he got hurt BEFORE they drafted him, but after they signed him???
