If we accept as true and accurate the notion that quarterback Peyton Manning plans to make a decision as to his next destination within a week and if we acknowledge the reality that various levels of management and/or coaching staffs are currently criss-crossing the country for Pro Day workouts in advance of the draft, the effort to figure out the teams with whom Peyton Manning may be meeting needs to take into account the possibility that get-togethers will occur not at team headquarters but in a college town.
On Friday, for example, scouts and coaches and personnel executives will attend sessions at Florida International, Furman, Mississippi, Montana, Northern Illinois, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Presbyterian, Purdue, TCU, Troy, and Washington State. (NFL.com has the full calendar.)
With receiver Justin Blackmon, quarterback Brandon Weeden, and safety Markelle Martin working out at Oklahoma State on Friday, it could make sense to keep an eye on Stillwater.
