it's amazing when you look back and see it was between Leaf and Manning in the draft - the choices you make shape your future

I remember reading about how the Colts were split internally on Manning and Leaf. Thank goodness they made the right choice, or maybe Leaf made them make the right choice. I can't imagine where that team and franchise would be if they had taken Leaf - probably in Los Angeles.

I think there was something about Manning telling the Colts management that if they don't draft him he will beat them for years to come or something like that.

(TheHuddle) Former NFL WR Charles Rogersthreatened to kill his mother if she didn't give back $100,000, according to a police report. The report says that Rogers and his uncle Ronie Rogers made a malicious phone call to Cathy Rogers and conspired to threaten her. Rogers surrendered to authorities last week on two misdemeanor charges. Analysis: Sounds like May 13 might be a little awkward around the Rogers household.
As long as we are talking about that looser...How about this one? Who threatens to kill their mother...with their uncle =)):-q
that rookie symposium thing must really be working out @-)

Would you say Rogers is a "Meathead"?

Sometimes, at the top of the draft, teams decide to hit the "desperate" button, and fail to address some of the telling signs of a potential bad apple....happens almost every year.

What ever happened to Lawrence Phillips? I guess his girlfriends have figured out to stay away from the stairs.
I don't trust Adam Schefter and neither should you!!!

Not according to the law. :)
But some of the hits he has made on the field, it looks like he was trying to kill someone.
