Of all the young qb's in the NFL right now?

    Hard to go against Kaepernick...he seems to have it all, even with just 9 games experience.

    But just to be different, and even though I'm not a fan of midget QB's, I'll go with Russell Wilson.

    His football IQ, poise and maturity are unprecedented for a rook and exceed even that of Luck IMO.

    If he had Kaepernick's or RGIII's physical gifts, he'd be illegal...essentially a mobile Peyton Manning

    I actually think out of Seahawks, Colts, and Redskins that Wilson and the Seahawks will do the best next year and might be the only one of the three to make playoffs again.

    Oh, and anyone that thinks RGIII is a not a passer first, with the ability to run is wrong.

    You could've just quoted me.

    I should clarify. The successful NFL QB will be the one who doesn't put themselves in unnecessarily dangerous situations with their running. If RGIII uses his legs properly, he'd be on my list, but he's taken a lot of unnecessary hits. He needs to slide/get out of bounds much more often than he does. You don't want a constant injury risk for a franchise QB.

    I'm going to assume that he'll learn. The guy is really smart and improved his decision making when running the ball after the concussion against ATL. The injury against the Ravens was really a fluke thing, he was trying to get down and just got his leg caught in an awkward position.

    What the actual eff are people choosing Locker, Dalton, and Bradford over RGIII and Wilson? Are you serious?

    Didn't want to single you out. haha.

    But yeah, the thing I really like about Luck is that while throwing darts all over the field, his athleticism is severely underrated. Won a prop bet against a buddy of mine about him rushing for at least 4 or more TDs as a rookie. $5 richer now. Holla!

    I compare him to Aaron Rodgers. His throws are as close to Rodger's as in the league IMO. And he's not a stiff. He can move. He can score you some TDs on the ground if the opportunity presents itself.
