LOL Just like Skip and Stephen A Smith

We have to take RGIII if he's there, Why in the world would a team DESPERATE for a QB for decades pass on a Legit Baller at the position? I'd be super pissed if we passed on him

Obviously there is a lot to like about RGIII and if he wears burgundy next year I will be excited.

But that windup of his still gives me the willies. It's easier to get away with a windup like that in college than in the NFL - just ask Leftwich.

I'd rather have Luck of course but that ain't happening

There is nothing wrong with RG3's release. His release is very quick and he has a perfect over the top throwing motion. The only thing that worries me is his footwork at times. He tends to throw off his back foot a lot. However, good coaching can fix that.

I agree. With the "windup", and the spread QB aspect of his college grooming, I find Barkley the more attractive QB prospect over RGIII.

I also feel that Barkley is the more polished qb, but there's just something about RGIII that I really like. I've never been a fan of the athlete qb, but this kid seems special. I was one of the people who felt that Newton would be a bust, and he still could be, but that is looking pretty weak right now. I also didn't see the hype in Dalton, but I may have missed the boat there. That being said, Dalton went in about the right spot, if we'd have taken him in the first, it would have been a big reach, right or not.

RGIII might have a tendency to drop the ball around hip level when he throws, but his release is quick and I don't think it would be that difficult for the Shanny's to fix it. Look at work out/combine video of Aaron Rodgers, his thowing motion was a mess. A couple years worth of NFL coaching later, and he's arguably the best qb in the NFL. His release is not a reason to pass on him.

Luck is clearly out of the question and as good as he more than likely will be, I'm not in favor of going "Ricky Williams" for him

The Heisman is an excellent indicator of something about a QB.

He will not make it to the Super Bowl and win it. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!

Jim Plunkett. And don't be surprised if Newton or Tebow join him in the next 2-3 years.

Only thing that would have me worried about RG III is his injury from a year ago. Doesn't seemed to have bothered him much this season, but still, I'm always worried about players who are seriously hurt in college. How many of those guys go on to the NFL and have long, productive, healthy careers?

He wasn't injured last year.
