The Wilson Blueprint

Winston already does one thing better than RG3 does. He throws the ball before guys come out of their breaks. He also plays from under center. Winston would be be a huge risk, maybe too much risk, but he looks very ready for the NFL game.

I like your thinking, but I seriously doubt Buffalo or the NY Jets would trade a 1st rounder AND a legit 0-lineman for RGIII. I'm doubting RGIII would command a first round pick right now. Maybe toward the end of the season, if he gets back in there and plays really well. But then again, if he gets back in there and plays really well, why trade him?

Also, do we know that Winston is reading defenses and making that committed throw before his receivers are coming out of their breaks, or is he simply throwing to the designed destination no matter what? It's kind of hard to tell on the collegiate level sometimes. Anyway, even if Winston has all the tools and smarts of a Joe Montana/Tom Brady/Drew Brees/Warren Moon.....he's a HUGE risk for off the field trouble and the Redskins have enough issues as it is.

I just think he's every bit as good or better than Luck was. He calls out protections, he's under center, he's running a complex NFL type of offense. To top it off he actually gets good grades. Yeah he's a knucklehead, probably needs to grow up, but like I said, if he's there I'd think about it. I don't think Gruden is in love with RG3 and doesn't have patience to develop him. Anyway...just a thought.
