Holmgren finally got his guy.
Mobility is probably more important than confidence operating behind that OL.Def. worth the risk. I've seen every throw he's made, if he can regain confidence and trust his reads better, he can be successful.
It's an interesting project for the Browns, I just hope it doesn't impact their approach to the draft. RG3 has slipped to RG3rd string, he was Colt McCoy's back-up last season. And Browns fans know Colt McCoy. The Browns earned that 2nd pick, and they need a QB. Figure it out, there's a good QB in this draft class somewhere.
To be fair, it was only because if RG3 got hurt the Skins would be on the hook for something like 16 million.
I think Jay Gruden probably didn't like the read option and determined he was the least capable QB on the roster to run a real offense. Nothing personal. He's not unlike Manziel in that sense. Guy's not too familiar with a playbook.
That might explain 3rd string, but not not starting.
I met him once at a local movie theater. He's a cool dude. Ended up missing his movie because of all the fans who wanted to take pictures. Unlike a lot of football players, he was actually smaller in person than I thought he'd be.
So we got a gimpy, friendly, small guy. Excellent.
