That's pretty obscene, especially when you consider they aren't getting the best QB in the draft.

Not really a fair statement, seeing as how Luck at the very least is the best quarterback prospect since Carson Palmer. RGIII in any other draft goes #1. As a prospect, he's Michael Vick with a good head on his shoulders.

Well, when you consider that the Raiders gave up a first and second round pick (which could turn into a first) for a busted up guy that was sitting at home doing nothing, it sounds about right.

Rumor has it that Cleveland was offering three first round picks, but refused to pitch in their second rounder from this year. At the end of the day, if RGIII turns into Football Jesus, that'll just be another kick in the family jewels for the Cleveland fanbase.

I agree, they each have a completely different style and are from different conferences. You can't really say one is better than the other because there is no real good way to compare them.

In the 2011 season

Luck had 3,500 passing yards for 37 Td's and 10 Int's.
150 rushing yards and 2 Td's.

RG3 had 4,300 passing yards for 37 Td's and 6 Int's.
700 rushing yards and 10 Td's

Depends all on how you look at it. I personally would want RG3 over Luck myself because he's a pretty decent passer and he has that ability to scramble and make a big play out of it.

I think it will be a great addition to the skins.

The thing is, that was in College. In the NFL the linebackers are faster than the QB 99.9% of the time. Plus RGIII is a pretty small dude.

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.

Let the reign of RGIII begin!!
