TheCount;4370939 said:I wanted him on the Cowboys, but he'll be off the board by then. If he was, by some freak accident, still available at 14, I'd take him even before I'd take a lineman.
What is horrendous about it? His board is not a reflection of how he thinks they will be taken. It is how he ranks the prospect in terms of future success and their abilities at their position.tm1119;4370952 said:Aside from this whole RG3 argument, just about his whole top 30 is horrendous.

ABQCOWBOY;4371980 said:No Burm, you are wrong here. Jeff George was the best passing QB I ever saw. He had the best arm I've seen, even better then Elway's IMO. Ryan Leaf was a also a gifted passing QB and Russell was just, well, nothing. I was never a fan of Russell so I don't even include him in this discussion but none of those guys were athletes like RG3. I don't accept that comparison because two were basically pocket QBs (although Leaf had more athletic ability then did George). I would not say that they had more upside then Luck. Luck is the best QB prospect since Elway probably but I would say that RG3 has more upside then does Luck.
Again, if I were picking, I would take Luck 100 times out of 100 but you are wrong in your assesment of these other QBs and RG3 IMO.
