How important is it to have a mobile QB?

I find the idea of having a mobile QB next year very exciting. However, sometimes I ask the question, "is having a mobile QB really all its cracked up to be?" Sure, every once in a while you have Cam Newton type of guys that just make it look easy. But for every one of these incredible dual threat guys, there are tons of mediocre to bad ones that are far from impressive. Just look at LSU this year, Mett is slow as Christmas and it is one of the better offenses that we have had.
Thoughts?
Oh and just FTR, mobile and dual threat= code words for Black.

Important if he cant throw the ball, the oline sucks, and there are no playmakers.
Not important if he can throw the ball, his oline is awesome, and he is surrounded by playmakers
We are just a competent Oline away this year

You could say that for every type of football player.

Mobile QB to me is someone that can avoid the rush. Mett can't avoid the rush. We need a QB that can pass well but also avoid the rush and scramble out of negative yardage situations. It is VERY important. Matt Mauck was perfect example. We need someone w that skill set.

jamarcus had a great career here. mccarron has had a great career at bama. this winston backup seems legit. i'd say its important.

A mobile QB = does not equal DT
Andrew Luck is a mobile QB
Andy Dalton is a mobile QB
Aaron Rodgers is a mobile QB
Ben Roethlisberger is a mobile QB
A lot of teams have poor offensive lines so a guy that can escape is key. Matt Flynn was a mobile QB for LSU. I'm pretty sure that Jennings will be more mobile than DT.

Having a mobile quarterback would be nice, having a "Jordan Jefferson" isn't though.

Look how many pocket passers have won the Super Bowl as opposed to mobile quarterbacks; Pocket passers, hands down. The quarterback position is for throwing the football.

The team with dual threat QB has 1/2 man advantage over pocket QB.

I think it is better to have one who can pass, but can actually get 10 yards if he needs to like Matt Flynn and JaMarcus Russell. Mett cannot run. He looks like he is going to hurt himself.

I want LSU to have what Bama has had in past two QB's, smart game manager who can make most of the throws, knows the playbook inside and out, can read defenses, check at the line, mobile in the pocket... protected by an OLine that is smart, tough, physical... running backs who don't run east-west when they need to run north-south... and wide receivers like OBJ and Landry.
