I don't know how this fits in all of this but apparently the Skins flew out to Stanford today to work out Andrew Luck and are bringing him to Ashburn later in the month.

Read everything I typed. Basically he's not playing the game. Knows SKINS traded up for him.


If you don't see it then I can't help you.

Huh? Did he mean to say the Colts worked out Luck today?

You're right. None of those words were hard to pronounce.

I'm sure this has been mentioned a lot here, but, lets say for a second we had the #1 overall pick, Do you still take RG3 or Luck?

Luck. He's less of an injury risk (Lucks one broken finger trumps RG3's torn ACL and concussion in terms of durability) and he has already excelled in a pro style offense showing the ability to call protections, audibles, look off the safety, and progress to the third option on the opposite side of the field on multiple occasions (all extremely underrated qualities in fan evaluations). From what I've read he's basically a mobile Peyton Manning.

Also in spite of not having the same level of elusiveness as RG3 he can still escape the pocket and buy time for receivers to get open down field.

It is tough though. They're both incredibly talented. I feel like this "rivalry" is going to be like Eli vs Rivers on steroids.

Re: Redskins agree to trade for No.2 overall pick in 2012 Draft

Luck played in a pro style offense @ Stanford and Griffin played in the spread. Had it been the other way around, Luck wouldn't have been projected as a #1 overall pick the last two years. Griffin has amazing intelligence to go along with incredible athleticism. As a QB playing in a spread offense @ Baylor, he threw 37 TDs with only 6 INTs with a 72% completion percentage and almost 4300 yards passing. Last but not least, the Big 12 Conference that Griffin played in is far more competitive than the Pac 12 Conference that Luck played in. RG3 is crystal clearly the better quarterback heading into the NFL draft.

I'd like to report that Dirtbag turned down a mod workout offer from Matty.

Maybe to you, but the consensus among scouts and evaluators who do this sort of thing for a living say otherwise.

They're neck and neck, 1 and 1a. I find it hard to say either guy is head and shoulders above the other.
