Reversal 2.0: What If Skins Trade Up to #1?

[Elephant]

i believe i also would take RGIII at #1....just to me he seems to be a more exciting kind of player ,,,one of those players that come along every 10 years or so ,,,that every fan of football has to watch every chance they get.... like a Barry sanders or Bo jackson...because if you miss his game, you know you are going to miss something great...

Which is my biggest concern...are you trying to sell tickets or win Championships? I am not saying RG3 won't win a Championship, but I don't see him the same as everybody else here seems to see. I think he is a contender at best. I see Luck as the real threat to win Championships. But what do I know? I am just a dumb jock who likes to talk football on an internet message board.

Well looking at it this way, a "fast, highly-mobile QB" has never won a Super Bowl, has he ?

John Elway did, coached by some guy back in Denver.

Steve Young did, coached (positionally) by some guy back in San Francisco.

They were mobile, but I don't think I'd consider them "fast"

I can't find 40 times for those geezers, but I think you're closer to being right on Elway than Young. Young was a hell of an athlete and pretty fleet of foot.

According to an article that appeared in the Seattle Times in August of 1993-a reprint from the Green-Bay Gazette comparing Young and Mark Brunell-Steve Young ran a 4.5 40 yard dash, pretty "fleet" indeed.
