My prediction : RGIII is going to get destroyed pretty quick.
Luck is going to get into an offense, maybe take a year to get used to it and dominate within the next 3 years.
If RGIII was big and buff like Cam Newton, he would be good...

I don't agree. Faster defense or not, to at least have some ability to scramble is better than none.
Since we compared RG3 to Vick earlier, lets do it again.
Michael Vick- Height: 6' Weight: 210 Lb's 40 time: 4.33
Robert Griffin- Height: 6' 2" Weight: 223 Lb's 40 time: 4.41
Like the man or hate him, Vick has done pretty damn good in the NFL. Vick has shredded many defenses with his ability to run the ball. Seems to me RG3 is bigger than Vick and he has good speed too.
Also want to throw in there that RG3 had a faster 40 time than all but one running back at the combine this year. In fact, He had the 13th best 40 time amongst all the guys at the combine this year.
I don't think his size or athletic ability (speed) are an issue.
