This. He only completed passes to ridiculously wide open receivers and missed almost all tight coverage passes.

A lot of preferences seem to be based on which games people watched. When I watched Baylor the couple times I did this year combined with the highlights, RG3 was spot on. However, I don't doubt for a second that both of you have seen him in games where he played sloppy and overthrew receivers... there wouldn't be any reason to make that up. It makes me wish I had the time and access to watch every one of the games played by these potential franchise QB's so I could form more of an accurate opinion.
For some reason, I keep thinking there is a sleeper pick in there that may succeed moreso than these other prospects.
I don't know what it is about Landry Jones that reminds me of Cassel... his mechanics, his release, I don't know... but I got a sick feeling in my gut when I first watched the guy play because my first thought was, Cassel. Haha, how sad is that? Mere flashes of Cassel in another player can give Chief fans a sick feeling in their guts. To Landry's defense though, I didn't see him pull the infamous Cassel-crappage when he was under pressure.
