2012 QB Prospects (Part 2)

The jags gave us a second rounder. To move up from say 10 to 2, would cost at least a 1st and a 2nd. Minimum. I mean this years first and next years first, plus a second.

We traded that second then and got an extra fourth I believe.

Landry Jones will come back to school next year and he should, he's not ready for the NFL yet..

I find Kirk Cousins an interesting prospect.

RGIII or Matt Barkley will be a Redskin next year. (crosses fingers)

I don't know that much about Baylor. What kind of system do they run? We he be a decent fit here? It sounds like he played lights out this weekend though. 45 TD's this year? WOW.

They run a spread similar to the old Texas Tech style difference is RGIII is way more accurate then Kingsbury etc. and has the rocket arm and pocket presence to make all the NFL throws while possessing top QB speed (I am guessing 4.4-4.6 range).

Landry Jones will come back to school next year and he should, he's not ready for the NFL yet..

Landry Jones sucks to me.

Like I said, the more I watch Barkley play, the more confident I am that he is going to be a franchise record setting type of guy.

I might be in the minority on here saying this, but if we have to move UP to get him, I would do it. I would try to keep my second rounder, not sure if that is feasible, but everything else, as well as everyONE else is fair game. (Other than our LT). If no other option presents itself, then I would give our 2nd to move up in front of some qb hungry teams to snag Barkley.

I agree with you. I think I've seen enough of the college QB's to draw clear distinctions between them in my mind. What I think I see is two players, Luck and Barkley, who are ready to be very effective NFL starters.

To me, RGII stands alone as the third ranked prospect and the only other First Rounder. Only his relative lack of size bothers me a little.

I was high on Landry Jones but he has fallen into the category of "The Rest of Them", IMO.

I think that these QB's have no major red flags but need time to develop. They could all, in time, be good in the NFL under the right circumstances: Jones, Tannehill, Cousins. They're 2nd or 3rd round picks, IMO.

I really like these two but they have red flags: Moore (probably too small) and Weeden (too old at 28). Fourth round at best, IMO.

Fourth round at best, IMO.There's a lot of other guys in this class who would be first rounders in any other year, but if we can't get to the top of the draft for Luck, Barkley, or Griffin, I think the Redskins would be smart to leverage the strength of the QBs in the class and target their guy at the top of round 2. It's rare that you'll have your pick of franchise caliber quarterbacks in the second round, but that's the case this year.

I think Tannehill will be there, as will Cousins, Foles, Kellen Moore. Even if the Redskins only think one or two of those guys will turn into NFL starters, they can play the draft through trades and still get their guy.

I think you have to do anything reasonable to get Barkley/Griffin as long as they are on the board. But I think Seattle is in a better spot to go up for them and we may not pick ahead of Cleveland by the end of the year. If Cleveland gets Barkley and Seattle gets Griffin, then the Redskins should look at the four players above.
