I wouldn't exactly call it a beautiful situation. It's a silver lining to a pitiful season, but there are tough decisions to be made. Let's not pretend that cutting Manning won't have some negative effect on his relationship with the team. If they do trade the picks, they should ignore the desire for 3 #1s and get as many early picks in this year's draft and next as possible, to restock the team for Payton's last 3-4 years. Personally, the more I see of Luck, the more I doubt him as a can't miss guy. If they do cut Manning and go with Luck, they still have a god awful football team that needs to be completely rebuilt.
