Lets forget that he is almost 6'3" and pushing 230lbs. He apparently is so fragile like Mike Vick who is barely 6'0" and I don't care what his listed weight it, I dont believe that he is over 200lbs.

I don't like to be mean, but some people are just stupid.

Son, if you think any QB can take the punishment RG3 has so far, for a full season, stupid is a vast understatement.

And just to keep things fact based, I've never seen him listed above 217.

Robert Griffin III, QB for the Washington Redskins at NFL.com

He's pretty slender by NFL standards.

He weighed in at the combine at 223

Thanks Matty, hadn't seen that before. And it's not like RG3 couldn't pack on some pounds (muscle), but it would likely slow him down a bit. I love his speed and agility, and don't really think he needs to be any heavier. The real issue is the pounding, so I hope they find a way to limit the hits.
