So lets say we do get the first pick overall, do we go for Andrew Luck (if he is still considered #1)or do we trade the pick or draft someone else?

Nah- I think we have to go O-line, stud tackle or guard.
horse ****.... we take luck.
Llllluuuuuccccckkkkkk.(that is me running to the podium).
Absolutely. You don't pass on perhaps the best QB prospect to come out of the draft since Peyton Manning.
Just remember, Ryan Leaf was ranked the same as Manning that year. Just sayin'. Top ranked QB's are bad more often than good.
I'd say there are more exceptions (Jamarcus Russell, Ryan Leaf)...Most QBs drafted in the 1st round do well in the NFL. 2nd round quarterbacks on the other hand typically do not. Luck is a without a doubt #1 pick. I've watched the guy play, he makes throws that few NFL quarterbacks can make.
