December 24, 2011; Baltimore, MD, USA; Cleveland Browns running back Peyton Hillis (40) runs towards Baltimore Ravens tackle Brandon McKinney (91)

You thought I was talking about Manning?

I’m talking about the Madden cover boy, Peyton Hillis and how his status with the Cleveland Browns could land RG3 in Burgundy and Gold. How you ask? Let me break it down for you.

The top six draft order is as follows:

1.Indianapolis Colts

2.St. Louis Rams

3.Minnesota Vikings

4.Cleveland Browns

5.Tampa Bay Buccaneers

6.Washington Redskins

With the #1 pick in the draft, I believe everyone knows that regardless of what Indy does with Peyton Manning, they will draft Andrew Luck. I wouldn’t be surprised if they signed him early. Andrew Luck appears to be the most “Peyton Manning-ist” type of quarterback since Peyton himself. Im convinced this is a no brainer for the Colts.

With the #2 pick in the draft, St.Louis can actually go a few different ways here. They could draft Blackmon and give Bradford a legit #1 threat to add to his arsenal. They could draft defense and add the stellar LSU CB Claiborne, giving them a potential career lock down corner. They could also draft someone to protect their Franchise quarterback; someone like USC’s Matt Kalil, who is projected as the best tackle in the draft. If I’m the Rams’ GM, I’m drafting Kalil to ensure that I dont have to draft another quarterback for a long time. (more…)
