  • We don’t know how good he is yet. Most say he was one of the only can’t miss players in the entire draft. The combine and everything else he did in college suggests he is actually a better athlete than Leonard Williams. Apparently Scott thinks he’s a better football player too. Apparently Scott would have taken him at three if the teams before us had taken Fowler and Cooper.

  • I would have preferred McCoy or Cousins to have performed so well in the pocket last season running Gruden’s WCO that one of them was the established starter now instead of Griffin, never made a secret of that on this forum. That said, the truth is IF ROBERT COULD PROCESS AND DECIDE GOOD ENOUGH IN THE POCKET I’d fine with Griffin. Rogers is highly effective within a pocket and also quite mobile. You’ve made the Wilson comparison before and if Griffin could think and decide as well as Wilson I’d be thrilled. I watched Wilson in college and the NFL and he’s smart in the pocket and out. My problem with Griffin is I haven’t seen any inkling that is capable of the processing quick enough to perform like Rogers or Griffin. From what I’ve actually seen thus far Robert, when healthy, seems much more like Michael Vick than Wilson or Rogers. As for Griffin running he seems to have a lot of straight ahead speed although I don’t know if Robert has the lateral quickness anymore.
