What if Luck came out?

[Matthias]

I got to ask this question, even though there are people who are tired of talking about Luck. Yet, if Luck came out, would DeAngelo Williams been talking about possibly leaving? Would Steve Smith been content to finish his career as a Panther? (And these are still rumors that he wants to be traded)

Luck heals all wounds. Not only that but Peyton Manning would demand a trade here just to learn from him. :rolleyes:

;)

[TruCatzFan]

JUST DON'T!! That's asinine!

What if... We weren't in a lockout?

What if... Smitty stays

What if... Peppers would have stayed

What if... Fox was our coach

Thats how you sound bro

don't think it would have mattered TBH

Smith is probably going to go to a team with an established QB while he still has some time left in his legs. I don't think he was going to wait around for another rookie QB to develop(yes, Luck wasn't going to come in here and throw 30 TD's).

As for DWill.. in my opinion, the biggest thing is money. this could likely be the last long term contract of his career, so I never saw him taking a hometown discount to stay. regardless of who our QB is/who it could have been, I think as long as the money was good he would stay.

Mad that if Luck declared Newton's name would be nonexistent in the discussion for #1 overall? ;)

D-Will did go on record and say the QB situation did play a factor on if he would stay here or not. I think with Luck, the sheer excitement in seeing what he could do would be enough for anyone to want and stick around.

Are you kidding?? If you think I am on Newton's jock I like Luck even more.

But I am also not ready to declare him a God in a football helmet either. He isn't the greatest prospect ever.

agreed, but he was 1000% better than any QB prospect in this draft

[CAVSS]

I think D-Will and Smitty would be staying. Not because it was Luck but because we would be addressing our QB situation. Right now no one knows what we are doing but if Luck was going to be available there would be no discussion.

[jtnc]

Sure, go ahead, it's not like we've already had 5 other threads ON THIS!

That is where we differ old chap. I didn't have Newton that far behind Luck.

[Mr. Scot]

He'd be the consensus #1 pick and we wouldn't be having any of the discussions we've been having.

Beyond that, speculative.
