Do you deny that RGIII's skills as a passer (as evidenced by his games at Baylor this year) aren't good enough for the pros just because he did what his coaches told him to do, which was make plays with his feet because he could? That really is a horrendously narrow definition of what a player can do.
The only point you might have is the spread offense thing. But again, I never saw you berating Sam Bradford in 2010 because of the offense he ran. I never saw you do that with Blaine Gabbert or Colt McCoy. Do those guys suck because they ran a spread offense in college and are being asked to do things in the pros they can't?
Your definition of RGIII = KORDELL STEWART makes you look like you've never watched a single ****ing game of his this season. You're also pretty much saying that because he used his feet as much as he did in college, it's impossible for him to make the transition that Donovan McNabb did, and that he'll never become a great QB because coaches are going to use him the same way they did in college.
That's just ****ing moronic. That's why I'm calling you a reerun, and why it doesn't mean shit if you called Jimmy Clausen. Hell, I don't give a flying **** if you predicted the coming of Kurt Warner and Tom Brady. Right now in this discussion you're being an obtuse reerun.

I didn't like Bradford either dawg.
My knock on McCoy was his toughness.
I haven't said that RGIII is going to be a bust, I just don't think with those knocks (perceived or real) that he's some sure bet.
If we were talking about trading up for Luck, I'd be all for it.
