I can't stand Eli Manning either. Peyton has class and at least Eli showed what little class he had by standing on stage with a Charger Jersey the short time they had him.
Now about the draft. It was a good draft. Some surprises, but nothing major. I think Philip Rivers will be a better quarterback in the NFL than Eli Manning. Eli is playing in New York. If he doesn't live up to the expectations of New Yorkers, they will want his head on a platter. I don't know why, but I just have a feeling that he will. Next, It appears that there will be controversy over who was the first pick in the draft. Yes it was Eli, but however they traded for Rivers so shouldn't he be the first draft pick if he was chosen by the first team? I think yes. Regardless of whatever happens, I'm staying behind my claims and this should be a fun NFL season to come.
