neither do Loomis or Payton. If they did, McCown wouldn't have a job, and RG would be on our actual roster, not the PS

He hasn't done that well in pre-season.

In camp he was throwing against one of the worst defenses in the league so it should surprise no one if he looked great.

He did pretty well in the preseason opener

16-23 for 180 yards and 2 TD's with a 107.0 passer rating

It's preseason, so what. I've heard more than once that it's a different speed from college to preseason and it's even faster when it comes from preseason to regular season. I'd pump the breaks on this Griffin talk

QBs dont sit and develop these days,most start pretty quickly and Luck,Wilson have had good success really early. RG3 first year was impressive,Tannehill gets better each year. Id rather take a shot on any of them in the draft,especially when you consider what average QBs like Cutler,Flacco cost and eeven they do not make FA.

The biggest FA QBs in the past few years with salary (years/overall/guarantee)

Ryan Fitzpatrick 2/6.5/1.75
Alex Smith 3 /$27/9ml
Chase Daniel 3/10/4.8
Matt Flynn 3/19/0

Non of them will win you anything

Yeah, but I'd like to try Foles, maybe Fitzpatrick or Flynn, maybe RGIII. Really, I just wish we'd drafted Murray out of Georgia in the 4th last year.

I can show you videos of jamarcus Russell throwing the ball also. Doesn't mean he can do it in a game......
I've seen Griffin in the game and his deep ball lacks accuracy. Sure he can launch it, problem is that the other team catches it........

Only one I hope they would consider is Foles, the rest are hot garbage

Yep, Foles is of a similar pedigree to Brees. It makes sense
