That's what I'm saying, either way I'm buying their jersey.

Former Shanahan coordinator says RG3 "is going to fit perfect" with Redskins - Washington Times

“Mike likes to run the ball – everything starts with the run – and likes to move his quarterback,” Kubiak said at the AFC coaches’ breakfast here Tuesday. “I don’t know that I’ve seen one move like this guy in a while. He’s very smart. This guy is going to fit perfect with what they want to do – if they take him, of course.”

Is Indy really thinking about taking RG3? I think it's a smoke screen but they're having the discussion.

It is a rare thing in life to be presented with a........True "can't lose" deal.
This is it!
I intend to.....savor every sweet moment.

People seem to be forgetting the Redskins moved up to the #2 overall pick because there are 2 different qb's the Redskins like. The Redskins aren't sitting there hoping the Colts are dumb enough to pass on Griffin. Maybe he's their first choice, but Luck is no "woe is us" consolation prize.

Honestly, I'm partial to Luck since I've watched him for the
Last 3 years and know what he is all about. He would fit Shanahan's system as well as Griffin and will add that he's not afraid running people over when he scrambles ( seen it many times).

Possible leverage in negotiating with Luck.

I wondered the same thing. Possibly they are just not burning bridges in case something bizarre happens and Luck is not available in the draft.

In case he pulls a Joba Chamberlain.

I think the fact that Indianapolis didn't bring RG3 in for another workout but is bringing in luck says it all.

Consensus among coaches, execs: Luck should go No. 1 | ProFootballTalk

It sure seems to. I know the Colts brass can just go to Baylor to work RG3 out if they wish, but if you're going to draft a guy it only makes sense to bring him into your house and introduce him to all your staff and make him feel comfortable.

It's like when you have friends over to the house for the first time and you give them the grand tour.

You don't do the house tour with friends do you? That is so weird and awkward I hate when people do that to me. It is like their personal episode of MTV cribs.

"Oh wow a linen closet, awesome."

"Oh we get to see the spare bedroom too? ,Yep!"
