After watching Jon Gruden's quarterback interviews and workouts with Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III, in my opinion the Colts will be out of their collective minds if they don't draft Griffin. Luck looks good, but Griffin looks unbelievable. Griffin is the next coming of Michael Jordan. He is about to become the biggest name in football. Luck is good, but BORRRRRRRING!

Luck is your typical drop back, pocket type QB. It's all the Colts have ever known.
Griffin does both. Saw a stat that Griffin actually had better stats when passing from the pocket than Luck. But Griffin represents the new type of NFL QB. Cam Newton did pretty well his rookie year.
Sooner of later these dual threat QB's will become the rage. How long they last is anyone's guess. Leave the pocket and roll out and you are fair game for a Ray Lewis type of hit.

There have been many dual threat QBs throughout NFL history and very few of them lasted long just because of the Ray Lewis's in the NFL. One hit and a teams season is normally done.

Very true. And that will be RG3's legacy. All the talent in the world,but his team gave up the farm (3 ea #1's and a #2) to get him, so their OL will continue to suck and Griffin will be on crutches before the bye week.
But then again, you can be like Rick's and my team - the Browns - and not have any idea of what to draft and continue to stink the NFL up.

At least the 'Boys win every now and then. The Browns don't.
