I would say the only advantage RG3 had (as a prospect) over Smith was his ability to run, which was not the reason he was drafted where he was. Smith may actually be more polished as a player in the pocket (although Griffin was very, very polished himself in that sense - there's too much talk about his running). I think the main difference in the two at this point is the team record, which colors the "pedigree". WVU's defense manages to make a stop in a couple of the shootouts, and we're talking about Smith as a Heisman candidate, or a Heisman winner, and his draft status is in absolutely no question.
But, hey, I've been wrong before.
