Quote:Difference is the Chargers didn't use a top 5 pick on a QB the year before, if they got "stuck" with Manning, I think they were OK with that.
Eli refused to play for the Chargers, iirc.
Again mariota doesn't hold the same value elway or Manning did coming out of college they was always going to get suitors
It doesn't make sense to me. You dangle the guy out there and if you have no one that bites for at least the price you paid, you just screwed yourself over. Seems way to amateurish of a move that I doubt any legitimate GM would do this.
