I think so except the fact that he'd have to adjust from a spread to a pro style system


He reminds me of Dennis Dixon, except that he is >>>>> Dennis Dixon was in college


Even if it doesn't work out at QB, he would make a great WR

Only thing I worry about him is size.

He folds like a chair when he's hit.

Yes he absolutely can.

He's a tremendous down the field passer. Don't let his brotherhood cause you to stereotype.

I respect this guy's mock's more than anyone and he has him going 2 overall.

quote:

Robert Griffin*, III QB,
Baylor Height: 6-2.
Weight: 220. Projected
40 Time: 4.52.
Projected Round (2012): 1.

10/21/11: Griffin was the star of the opening week in college football, completing 21-of-29 passes for 359 yards and five touchdowns against TCU. Since then he hasn't looked back, having put up huge numbers on a weekly basis. It wasn't until late in his fourth game of the season that Griffin had more incompletions than touchdown passes. His stock is skyrocketing into the first round based mainly on his consistency. On a weekly basis, he has been an unstoppable force.

Griffin has displayed a strong arm, with good mobility and is very accurate on passes downfield. His accuracy has been phenomenal on passes to the short, intermediate, and deep part of the field. He is extremely intelligent off the field and that translates to good decision-making on the field. For the season, Griffin has completed 78 percent of his passes for 1,950 yards with 22 touchdowns and two interceptions. He has ran for 295 yards and two touchdowns.

I bet Auburn and Florida could use him

he's so darn good and is humble too

Respect

If he isn't in the top 5 in the Heisman race then people are retarded

He'll probably tack on 10 more pounds to make him 230, he's got speed to spare. Not that he's a one trick pony anyway.

I just hope he's a legit 6-2...

Don't let his blackness cloud your vision. I like Luck but I think RG3 is right there with him. The only difference is the style of offense they play

It's not even a question about his physical attributes at the qb position. The guy is not an athlete playing qb, he is a qb who happens to be a ridiculous athlete.

Sure fire first rounder

Some guy on CBS had him to the Jets at the end of the 1st as a WR a few months ago, I still get a kick out of it

plus his parents were in the military

Very well spoken, I have a feeling that he'll be a top 12 pick and be better than Luck in the long run (if he gets a chance to shine that is)

flame away but my goodness he is good

It's sad how they are trying to Brad Smith this kid. Even mentioning him at any other position other than QB is a disgrace.

IIRC, he's already got his degree and is working on his Masters. Definitely recall him talking about attending law school.
