So annoying to read people who have no idea either way argue back and forth about it. I just don't understand how someone could act so sure about something they have no idea about......
How do some of you seem so sure that Andrew Luck will or will not declare???

Originally posted by THATHURMANATORA simple answer to that is that Luck coming out would have a ripple effect on who would be available for us to take. Sure the likelyhood of the Bills getting him is probably 0 but it would affect the talent pool.

Here's an article concerning rookie wage scale cap potentially implemented for the 2011 draft...
Though the NFL wants to implement a rookie wage scale that would wipe out the windfalls paid to players taken at the top of the draft, the league has been leery about handling the issue in a way that would cause a flood of college underclassmen to bolt for the NFL before the big money dries up. (With a true rookie wage scale likely coming in 2011, that’s no longer a concern.)Last edited by Yasgur's Farm; 12-31-2010, 02:14 PM.

According to the article, he would receive $5.34M guaranteed... Compared to Sam Bradford receiving $50M. Also... The 6 year deal would total at $19.9M compared to Bradford's $78M.
YES... MONEY IS THE REASON!

So staying in school and accepting under the table scraps from boosters is better than turning pro and signing for 6 or 7 figures ?
Got it.Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit

Originally posted by THATHURMANATORLet me say that if Luck doesn't come out he is a total fool. Why anyone would risk so many millions of dollars is beyond me....

Originally posted by Johnny BugmenotIt's just as big of a risk to come out too early. Peyton Manning has made far more over the course of his NFL career than, for instance, Michael Vick or Alex Smith. Apples to oranges, I understand, but there's a reason you don't see a lot of sophomores declaring after only two years of college ball.
Vick made plenty of money. His dog fighting crap and overspending did him in.

Luck's father gave a not so subtle hint that he felt his son would come out. Luck's dad is the A.D. for WVU and they asked him at one point during the game the other night. He said Andrew has always made good decisions and he will do so in this case, but it's every young football players dream to compete with the best and the NFL is the best. I'm paraphrasing to the best of my recollection. Having said that - I've read many who feel Luck's not declaring. So, we still don't know.Last edited by TedMock; 12-31-2010, 04:09 PM.
