According to Mike Wilbon of the Washington Post, people with “intimate knowledge of what the Colts are thinking” have informed him that the Colts are giving serious consideration to taking Baylor QB Robert Griffin III over presumed No 1 overall pick Andrew Luck.
“Some people that are having input into this pick, (believe) that RG3 is better in the pocket,” Wilbon said. “They have stats, they have analysis, they have information that says to them it’s Luck who is faster to leave the pocket and not be as good in the pocket. And RG3 is better in the pocket, he’s a better pocket passer, better arm. And that they are seriously still considering RG3.”
There’s been a lot of talk regarding the idea in recent weeks, but several draft experts still believe Luck should ultimately be the pick. Even if Griffin isn’t taken with the first pick, he’s still earned some very high praise for his ability and character. The Redskins should be happy to get either of them.
