RGIII on the transition to the NFL:

there is no doubt that RGIII is going to be a really good QB - no doubt at all

there are really only 2 areas of concern

how much time will it take for him to be really good

how great a QB will he become

those are the only things we need to worry about




we certainly did not give up very much for a QB that is going to be considered one of the best Redskins QBs ever

it's a Redskins' site , no?

I used to indicate that my posts were my opinion - then I realized


duh


but ..... there is no way that Robert Griffin III does not become a really good NFL QB - no way

maybe he get's injured, but that does not count

given his talent, the years of dedication and especially the family support & guidance - this kid cannot miss - this is an exceptional talent

[SkinsJock]

it's just a matter of time


it will take time - but I'm hoping the effects are almost immediate


the other part that cannot be measured is the players that will come here to be a part of the magic that might not have come if we did not have RGIII

that means we did not give up anything for RGIII - we actually added players we would not have had

this is just getting better - I need another drink

The Redskins began organized team activities today, and the wide receivers are loving what they’re seeing from rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III.

“He’s been doing everything that we expect,” Santana Moss said. “He’s looking sharp. He doesn’t look like a rookie right now. I’ve seen him run a lot, but I see him throw the ball and it’s like pinpoint — right there, on the spot. You don’t have to do too much, and he’s giving us a chance to win every time.”

Pierre Garcon, whom the Redskins signed in free agency with the hopes of seeing him become Griffin’s No. 1 receiver for years to come, said he was impressed that Griffin already seems to have a good grasp of the Redskins’ offense.

“He’s doing a lot of great stuff,” Garcon said. “He knows the playbook, he’s calling the right plays, he’s putting guys in position, he’s making the throws on time, and he has a great, strong arm. He’s been like a veteran.”

Griffin said he has worked hard studying the playbook but he has also been reminding himself not to overthink things.

“Sometimes in football, you’ve just got to go out and play,” Griffin said.

So far, his teammates have liked the way he’s going out and playing.

Not only did RGIII take studying his playbook seriously, he also saw that it was important to learn about his teammates hitting the field with them.

Santana Moss was asked if he thought that RGIII might get some hazing from the vets - "hell no - I'm taking him out on the town - I plan on getting a lot of balls thrown my way"


this is going to be fun ...

i understand it will take time but this kid is very special

From NFL Total Acess:

Doughty says that RGIII is in such command of the offense that he checked off the safeties a couple of times. Check out the link.

Anytime I hear the word "just" it makes me cringe. That term is used to lighten things. That is why I took it the way I did. But hearing this from the players is good. Trust me, this is what we all want. It's good to hear. My only fear with rookies is that they don't understand how big a transition it is going into the NFL. As long as RGIII knows that and works hard, he'll be fantastic.

Although, I would like to hear what the OL is saying -- the WR sort of always tend to kiss up to the QB. After all, the QB is their meal ticket.
