Maybe that's who we should be trading up for.

I want RGIII or Peyton, but I'm happy with either.

Who's to say that there will be a top QB available or WORTH taking down the road? Not every draft has multiple, or even one single, franchise viable QB prospect. That is a bigger risk then "rolling the dice" on RG3. You can evaluate RG3's ability to be a franchise QB better than a sophomore or freshman QB in college currently playing.

One thing I like to point out about RGIII is his ability to move in the pocket. Part of me thinks that the comparisons to Vick may have been off. Yes they have similar measureables but the playing style is completely different. Heck with the way I've seen Griffin move around the pocket he reminds me more of Rodgers then anyone else.

Personally I'm just facisinated by his pocket presence. The way he moves and eludes the rush while keeping his eyes down field is exactly the type of thing a team that struggles to put lines together needs.

I mean watch how often defenders close in on him and how well he moves to not only get away from them but set up the deep throws.


Now compare that to Cousins and Weeden.

Weeden who admitingly does a nice job against the rush but he's able to avoid sacks because of his quick release while going for the shorter quicker routes. RG3 on the other hand is eluding the rush, giving his guys time to get downfield, and then completing 20+ yard passes.

If that is the only consequence i'll risk it.

That's a strong possibility.

I think the Redskins have a much wider range of viable options at quarterback than just RGIII or Peyton Manning. Though you'd have to search hard to find the guy that believes one or the other wouldn't work here. I believe each will come with unintended consequences, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. Just always be prepared to deal with unforseen complications.

Yeah, well I dont know how much more faith I have in the Shannys with finding those others QB and rather just go with the guys who seem to have the most talent. McNabb and Rex/Becks choices were just awful.

I am not saying you should believe in the Shanahans. I am just saying that some team is going to find that quarterback that isn't Luck, RG3, or Peyton Manning, and it's that move that will put them in the playoff hunt.

I can't look at past history and give you a compelling reason to believe that said team will be the Redskins.

There's not much history that shows any person or team can consistently find diamonds in the rough at the QB position. Packers maybe? The Shannys are no different than most personnel guys in the league. They're all grasping to some extent. Hell, Bill Walsh swore Gino Carmazzi was going to carry on the Montana/Young torch for the 49ers.

But I agree that chances are good that some team will hit on a QB taken after Luck and RGIII. My guess is it will be a team already somewhat set at QB that is not drafting out of desperation like the Skins. Their rookie QB will be able to sit and learn and won't be thrown into the fire like Luck and RGIII.

Everything I've heard about Tannehill suggest he's either going in the top 10 or the second round. There doesn't seem to be much of a middle ground in terms of projecting where he'll go.

That's not a playoff team last I checked unless you are in the West division.

I'd give 4 picks for him.
