Robert Griffin III Baylor QB

I'm pretty sure we wont be drafting a QB

I doubt we take him (or would even have a chance at him), too. Even though he's my favorite QB prospect in the draft, I believe we will watch Griffin go to another team in need of a QB, possibly even in the NFC West, which could be scary. This draft is QB rich, and there are a number of teams in need -- whether immediate or future.

Teams that could/are likely to look QB in the draft include (with my guesses of possible landing spots):

Colts - Andrew Luck?
Chiefs - Landry Jones?
Dolphins - Robert Griffin?
Redskins - Kirk Cousins?
Cardinals - Ryan Tannehill?
Seahawks - Matt Barkley?

RG3 > Luck

not to thread hijack, but am I the only one who believes Tannehill would be better off returning for his senior year? I mean with Luck, Jones, Barks, and others gone, he might be top QB prospect next season, and IMO he's not ready to succeed as a rookie right now

I'd totally agree... if he wasn't a senior

You guys think the combine can boost his stock any higher than it already is?

It couldn't hurt. Dude participated in the US Olympic trials in '08 and outran former Olympians

Could put up an eye popping 40 time

Why is he the best QB prospect? Because he runs the best ? I still believe that Andew Luck and Matt Barkley are the 2 top QB prospects in the draft.

you're under-rating his passing abilities. he's pretty accurate with most of his passes including the deep ball. but after watching barkley's last 2 games, i don't blame you at all, he's been throwing it well.

he has the higher ceiling because of his mobility/speed/quickness, he's every bit as good if not better than both Luck and Barkley in arm strength and accuracy, just hasn't performed in a pro system. His footwork definitely needs to be worked on.

He's also an established leader with a right head on his shoulders and very good work ethic, there's really not a whole lot to not like about this guy

I've honestly never really seen him play, and when I have, he's never taken off scrambling. Sounds like this guy is the real deal
