    I've been watching RG3 before ESPN talking heads even knew who he was. And his speed or athleticism (which is far superior to Luck's) isn't even the resason for his success. He's got just as good an arm as luck, is more accurate, and he's got the brains as well.

    What's RG3's flaw? A spead offense?

    Do you have any actual proof that Griffin is more accurate then Luck or are you just pulling an opinion out of thin air. Also, great athlete doesn't mean great QB prospect. (VY vs. Peyton Manning for example)

    And an offense that is infamous for making athletic QB's look better then they really are I think its worth mentioning when comparing him to a QB with comparable numbers who plays in a system that doesn't over inflate numbers

    his 78% completion percentage with worse receivers and a worse offensive line tells me he is more accurate. Not to mention I've seen them both play and RG3's percision on the deep pass is ridiculous.

    Luck has done most of his damage this season in garbage time against terrible teams.

    I would say that RG3's flaw would be durability concerns. He is a little on the small side for an "ideal NFL quarterback" and missed some time in college.

    Between that, the spread offense, and Luck's pedigree, Luck is probably the safer pick. My opinion is that RG3 has a higher potential.

    In other words, with the first OR SECOND pick, they're getting a good QB...

    As I said (three times already) the Spread offense inflates a QB's completion percentage. Just because RG3 has a higher comp% does not make him more accurate.

    Do you dispute that Baylor's system (which is heavily based on Mike Leach's at Texas A&M where Briles had his previous job) boosts a QB's precentage as opposed to the Pro style offense that Stanford runs.

    My favorite line of this thing is:

    Team Rec TOT CHANGE
    SF 5-1 99.0% 1.5%

    Haha, the division race is over, everyone can go home.
