There is no middle ground regarding Luck, it's a polarized situation.
If he recovers he's still 28 years old and extremely valuable based on a history of performance at the most scarce and important position in sports. The Colts would almost certainly not trade him, and if somehow a trade was worked out (e.g. a scenario where they held the top overall pick and thus a replacement was on deck, ironically the Manning/Luck situation) they would receive a significant package despite the injury history.
If he doesn't recover then he can't pass a physical and is untradeable.
