2012 QB Prospects (Part 2)

He has quietly being having a great season. I would say he's almost as good due to his physical build. Both will be great pros, I take either one.

I only saw a little of Stanford's game last night but what I saw reaffirmed to me that Andrew Luck has everything one could possibly want in a NFL QB. He should be outstanding for the Colts.

Every time I see Barkley play, he is the college QB I can best envision running the Skins offense.

These two QB's are as close to "can't miss" prospects as it gets.

I also think that Landry and RGIII have what it takes to be NFL starting QB's.

I know this sounds like a broken record, but here I go again: I believe that it is very important to the future of the Redskins that at least three of these four QB's are in the upcoming NFL draft because the down year we are having, the one benefit of which should be high draft picks, may give us the only realistic chance we'll have for years to acquire a young Franchise QB.

Ya I could definitely see that. Only because he and USC are this good against great teams like Stanford and Oregon, beating one and barely losing to the other. He wanted to win a bowl game at USC. Thats why I see him staying. I also remember seeing that Matt Kalil, USC's great LT, said that he and Barkley are a package deal to the NFL (he goes, I go. He stays, I stay).

However I could also see him leaving USC being that;
He still entertains the draft talk idea and doesn't shoot it down. He's putting up numbers that are having some scouts saying, he could be better than Luck. His numbers can't get much better. Also when you return for your senior year, your always risking yourself from getting injured. Nowhere have I seen Barkley say "Ya I'm coming back next year."

Since he finished his season on a high note I could see scouts saying he's a top 5 pick, which may just be enough. Plus with Seattle and Washington in the top 5, more than likely, I could see him being wanted to be drafted by one of these teams, rather than a team like Cleveland for example. Remember Mark Sanchez wanted to return to USC the next year to play for the national championship and was 'definitely' returning to USC the next year. He later declared for the draft about a week later...

Please don't mislead others by stating that as if it is a fact. It is not a fact. We don't know one way or the other.

Luck will be picked #1. And say that Barkley (which would also mean Khalil), Jones, and RGIII all decide to stay in college and we end up picking say 5th in the first round who do we take? That to me seems like a very interesting question. I'll probably get burned here for stating a hypothetical.

I think I would want Claiborne from LSU, would be a chance to have a lockdown cb that we havent had since when we had Champ at the beginning of his career.

Great question and point. I would take either a lockdown CB like Claiborne ( or Dre Kirkpatrick) or I would trade down, and get Vontaze Burfict and a CB in the 2nd round, like a Janoris Jenkins or Cliff Harris. I would draft Nick Foles later either 2nd or 3rd round and get Kellen Moore. I would see what Matt Flynn wants in FA too. If I see no sign of improvement from the QB's in that year, I'm getting Barkley or Griffin.

My Top 10 big board based on the Redskins Needs:
1. Luck
2. Barkley
3. RGIII
4. Claiborne
5. Blackmon
6. Jeffery
7. Kirkpatrick
8. Kalil (as a right tackle/or put him at LT move Williams to RT.)
9. Richardson
10. Kuechly

Lane Kiffin believes Barkleys gone

With the Coliseum crowd repeatedly chanting "One more year!" Barkley was brilliant in what might have been the junior's final game at USC. He went 35 for 42 and set a Pac-12 record with his 39th touchdown pass early in the fourth quarter, hitting Woods from 41 yards out to surpass Leinart's mark. Barkley also surpassed his own school record set earlier this year with 35 completions.

Barkley and left tackle Matt Kalil are near-certain first-round NFL draft picks, but they claim they haven't decided whether to return for their senior seasons and a shot at a national title with a team that's likely to be among the nation's most talented next year despite severe NCAA scholarship restrictions that start in 2012. Barkley again declined to speculate on his decision, saying he'll figure it out soon.

"Unless he wants to do it, just to be a special Trojan, he ain't coming back," Kiffin said. "He's every bit ready to go to the NFL. It's just going to be a decision, does he want to do something really unique? He might be the guy to do that."

Lol, this is impossible to do. At least they tried though.

This win kind of hurts all the thought put into these threads.

I hate it when a team that isn't going anywhere anytime soon decides to win against an equal team, and put us further out of position from getting a player that will make the difference between us being drastically better to somewhat better.
