nah no real worries there, there won't be any pressure on RG3 unlee he's still struggling in yr 2.
also no backups (other than grossman) on the skins roster and you got to worry about injuries with RG3 since he'll occasionally take the big hit if he does take off and go. Good pick I reckon.
love the eagles draft. was very happy with our first couple of rounds and we even got a big bodied receiver to boot.
Whilst the secondary is still a concern (with asante gone and no improvements at Safety) I'm hopeful that the new secondary coach will raise the play of the existing talent.
unbelievable from manning. I can't see tebow being traded for much... his best bet was jacksonville but they have gabbert and signed henne already so can't see it happening.
Broncos would still be in the market for 2 more QBs though... they will trade tebow and have lost quinn, so don't have...
no written agreement but no other teams did it and is also the reason why the skins had so much cap room this year to spend. decent start to free agency but you guys still need an out and out #1 receiver. None of those guys (nor santana) is really a legitimate #1
there are a few different things happening
1) Saints - their Defensive coordinator has admitted to contributing to a pool whereby players were incentivised to 'knock an opponent' out of the game (effectively try and injure a player). this is the so called 'bounty' scandal they are talking...
lol. people have compared his game abit more to aaron rodgers... (but clearly more athletic).
That is a scary prospect... and for memory skins have something like ~30m caproom to play with to fill in the other gaping hole they have at WR. Colston or V-Jax should be available..... or other...
the problem is they have a shiteload of holes. WR, CB, Dline and oline
in short everything by QB/RB (whilst S-jax is healthy)
+ the organisation has a terrible recent history of drafting well (bradford and laurinitis aside)..... at least they have a new GM this year.
it's very pricey... but as an eagles fan I'm terrified. we are talking about a guy that plays the same kinda game as Michael Vick 2.0 (i.e. the passing vick), but has better accuracy, pocket presence and is a heckuva lot smarter
