Tony Dungy says he would take Robert Griffin III over Luck, I don’t see whats so great about Luck anyway and I’m not the only one…

He’s a winner and makes his teammates better. I pity any GM who passes on him because he doesn’t fit into the cardboard cut-out of a pro QB.

I just don’t see the Skins trading away picks to get anyone in this draft. We have too many needs. Hail!

Rams are sitting pretty. They won’t be trading Bradford and that contract plus you give up on Bradford after a down year following an impressive rookie season for an unknown QB who played in a conference with poor defenses.

Cleveland, Washington, Seattle, Miami will be desperate to trade up. Considering how Danny Boy Snyder likes the big names and his name in the news, the Deadskins will overpay dearly for RGIII.

This guy has the potential to be a great qb. He has freakish athleticism, a live arm, and most importantly he has the intangibles. He would be similar to the current Michael Vick but with the body of a 21 yr old. FYI, Tannehill is not a better prospect than RG3 and it’s not even close. Nick Foles is the 3rd best QB, Ryan Tannehill has potential but he is a guy that you develop for a few years and then give him an opportunity like Romo, Rodgers, and now Flynn

Honestly, A. Luck may possess the most desirable Pro QB traits so far, but RGIII maybe the best psychological fit for the Colts. RGIII would be a comfortable fit, behind Peyton Manning. RGIII’s demeanor is humble, patient and intelligent. He could have some special packages during his rookie season that would put pressure on defenses (Wow! Considering that Peyton always puts pressure on Defenses). He could also be a good back up should Peyton succumb to injury, again. RGIII’s Mobility becomes an asset. If the Colts are planning to release P. Manning, anyway, then A. Luck seems to fit the Peyton mold as an ‘immediate’ solution. Both are talented (potential) young Men. Draft wise it’s a good situation for Indy.

He will eventually be a very good QB by his second/third year in the NFL.

funny thing is, If Cam Newton had a bad season, RG III wouldnt be so high on every draft board.

Now everybody thinks he’s the next Cam but one’s success has nothing to do with the other

Vikes need to lock this dude up. Trade Ponder for a 2nd rounder.

@xenova1

I agree with your point. The purpose of college is to prepare you for life after college. If it has done that after 2 or 3 years, then great!

However, to use RG3 as an example is a little misguided. RG3 has his degree. Graduated high school early. Graduated Baylor (a very good academic institution) with a 3.67 and is working on a masters. If football doesn’t work out, RG3 will be just fine.

And the draft lies begin already…the Vikings are happy at QB…since Luck and RG III will be gone when they pick…next the Redskins will say they don’t need a QB, they are happy with Grossman…

has to love herm edwards on BSPN today, when he said all nfl teams are now looking for mobile QB’s. , and pocket passers are a thing of the past. It’s the new desire of every NFL team to have guys like Michael Vick, and Cam Newton

Hmmmmm…i think every team that is going to win this weekend has a pocket passer, and vick, and newton are watching them play from their couch.

The Redskins must do what it takes to get the best QB left after Luck. If RGIII is the next best, trade up [for less than a king's ransom], if Tannehill or an alternative will do, sit tight or trade down

I have been much more impressed with RGIII than with Luck. With the success that running QBs are having at the pro level, I would take RGIII over Luck. We’ll see what happens

I hope he ends up in Washington also. We haven’t had a really good QB since Sonny Jurgensen. Well, maybe a few good ones, but not a really good one.

Go pro. People need to make money for the millions being generated towards the universities because of their hard work. Sure they get tuition, but after 1 year as a pro, they’ll have enough money to go back to school if the pro thing doesn’t work out for them. I wonder what percentage of the student-athletes care about being a student.

A certain state university near me had their athletic budget increase 300 percent in the last 10 years.

I hope he ends up in washington , miami , denver ,wherever and has a fantastic career ! I just don’t see him as a # 2,#3,#4 , pick !

Cant wait to see him holding up that Browns jersey! Goodbye Colt. Actually it really doesn’t matter who’s chucking the ball with the awful system that the Browns are running….SMH

I can only hope he gets the same treatment you guys give tebow. you know where you keep pointing out every flaw in his game. but more importantly give him all the blame when his team loses while trying to dimish his contributions to the games they win. no excuses as he will be a top 10 pick unlike tebow so he should start and win right away where ever he ends up at.

For those saying that Griffin III won’t be a good NFL quarterback, what have you seen that leads you to draw that conclusion?

What a good young man. Best wishes to not ending up in Washington

With that said, Kyle and Mike feverishly begin packing their bags to talk to RGIII…The newest Redskin and biggest thing to hit DC since the quake of 2011!

If rgii falls to #4 , take him ! If not i’d hope
for blackmon ! QB is not the browns biggest

If the Browns get this guy, they could get to the Super Bowl. They had a lot of injuries and Greg Little will be a stud in his second year!
