Archie Doesn't Want Eli to go to the Chargers

Can you blame him?

Ok, who's seriously going to watch the draft?

All the live long day.

Yeah, quarterbacks dont exactly 'flourish' under Schottenheimers system, and I think Manning would be better off in New York. Hell Brees isnt terrible, hes just in a system that doesnt play to his strengths.

I look at Roethlisberger, and I see a big, strong guy who nobody had heard of before bowl season, and Ryan Leaf keeps creeping into my head for some reason...anyone else getting that vibe?

I'm definitely going to watch the whole thing; this is a chance for my team (the Giants) to try to put out a competitive team next year. I'd love them to get Manning or Gallery...but we shall see.

Probably has a legit reason for not wanting Eli to go through the same isht he went through back in the day with New Orleans. I'm a Charger fan, but I do understand the sentiment of Big Archie.

Don't know enough about Roethlisberger to compare him to that freak Cryin' Ryan Leaf.

I'll catch the hightlights of the draft on Sportscenter. I think Eli can flourish in the Giants' offensive system.

Kerry Collins got the boot today. Anyone have any guesses as to what team will try and pick him up?

Baltimore? Considering their combined 5 years exp among their starters, a 10 year vet may be good to help refine the raw talent.

Eli was on letterman the other night if anyone wants to hear the clip.

Dallas sports talk radio was full of "we want Kerry" talk today. I doubt he comes here though. I'd bet Oakland takes a run at him.

There's an article on ESPN that has Dallas looking hard at him.
