[quote=JoeRedskin;925568]Do I expect him to be? No. Is it beyond the realm of possibility? Not yet. Is it likely? Not very.

Is it what I want? Yes.

If he does, would he take time off from his football career to play basketball? Hockey?[/quote]

Maybe the olympics in 2016?

Re: RGIII Ready to Report (Signs Deal)
 

Love the new Washington Post piece out this afternoon on RGIII becoming a Redskins. Has a number of really interesting nuggets that (as far as I know) had not been previously released).

1) Love that he had the Redskins shirt on when the Redskins brass went to meet with him in Waco in March.
2) Love that he wants to put all of his contract money in savings while living off the endorsement money ($1M+)
3) Love that there were no busted plays in OTAs/mini-camps.
4) Love that he seems to be constantly studying the playbook.

Yes, I know, a total love fest. Still, a good Friday afternoon read.

I'm really excited to see how he reacts to his first sack/first pick in live game action. It will be the first actual test of the mental toughness he describes so well.

He may be the most perfect QB the Redskins have ever had.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I can't wait to see this kid in action.

His size, skillset and grace of movement remind me of a Ken Stabler, Joe Montana, Randall Cunningham, Mike Vick, Jake Plummer.
(but more explosive)

He's a perfect fit for Kyle's offense or any offense for that matter.

I'm a bit of a hypocrite since I always push "RG3 wil be RG3" (ie he'll have his own distinct style. However right now I'm picturing him a lot like Aaron Rodgers with Vicks straight line speed. RG3 or anyone else for that matter doesn't have Vick's cutting ability.

In terms of what we'll actually see. Personally I think this might be a pretty good idea. Throw in a couple of long runs and wahla.

Also in watching the above video and comparing it to his highlights with the Bears, Cutler was much quicker getting into his drops then he is today in Chicago. Just a thought.

I know the dead zone is killing me. No Redskins, Caps, or Wiz. I wish I loved baseball as it's on all the time but I'm only luke warm on the sport. And I've been following camp for so many years that while it's still interesting to follow so I can see who wins out and starts but I'm beginning to see why others find it boring.
