I really think that SD is going to trade the pick. Eli could hold out, but it's not like the Elway situation. Elway was playing minor league ball for the Yankees at the time. Now, how legitimate his shot at making it to the majors was at the time is debateable, but he did have options.
I think SD is better served trading the pick, continuing development of Drew Brees, and addressing more needs.

Oh, they'd definitely be better served, but...
Their GM is in his first draft. Here he has a guy who's holding out, and I'm not sure he wants to set a precedent of giving into demands and trading.
I think this whole thing will just make the Chargers force Manning's hand and pick him; it's a hell of a situation, especially for a guy making his first draft pick as a GM.
