Luck could clearly need to stay if...
1) he just enters an enormous Soph slump. Let\'s assume that does not happen.
2) he gets a major injury that raises serious questions. The injury would have to be bigger than Bradford level injuries. For Luck\'s sake let\'s assume that does not happen.
What about the world of wanting to stay?
1) He and the family might predict a devastating strike that creates uncertainty and erodes the power of the high draft picks. Unlikely
2) He and his family see the #1 pick going to a team that is just terrible and likely will remain terrible. Possible
Which teams are in the running at this point for the top pick.
The 0-5 SF 49ers and the 0-5 Carolina Panthers.
Amazingly both play each other. The "loser" will be more than a game ahead (behind?) the winner in the draft standings.
Imagine for a moment that the 49ers actually get the first pick. Good legacy, new stadium in the works, local angle, etc...
So there may be an opportunity to see the game that might one day be known in the NFL as the game that gave the loser a touch of Luck.
