I agree a QBs intellect is sometimes overlooked by raw athleticism, not that he is not a great athlete. I feel like this is the best class of mobile QBs that can actually throw the ball with some accuracy, they will be fun to watch for awhile.andrew luck is the future
absolutely, they are all great and have talent, but knowledge is power behind that line.I agree a QBs intellect is sometimes overlooked by raw athleticism, not that he is not a great athlete.

Luck: B+, took a team that was horrid bad the year before and brought them to the playoffs.
RG3: A, he individually makes the Redskins a huge threat. The man is a talent that is unmatched in the NFL, he just needs to wise up about the contact he will be receiving, as well as protecting a lengthy career.
Wilson: A/A+, even though he doesn't have the same stigma attached to him as Luck or RG3, the man can play football. He has been an efficient QB and possesses a tremendous knowledge of the game, especially that he needs to keep himself healthy, which RG3 lacks severely.
IMO, all 3 rookie QBs are fully capable and talented NFL starting QBs, and I wouldn't mind having any one of them for my team (Cardinals)
I forgot to update this thread about the Rookie of the Year award.I'm wondering why Wilson only gets an A-. He was the clear winner down the stretch. The most efficient QB in the entire league for the last half the season. He was the only rookie to get a playoff win. He tied mannings rookie td record with far less interceptions.the fact that he DIDN'T get hurt like rg3 and played the same style of game. All of these things make Wilson the best QB of the rookies this year. Shall I go on?
Tell that to my BroncosI forgot to update this thread about the Rookie of the Year award.
RG3 officially won it!!
BTW, yes, Wilson is the only one of the rookies that got a playoff win, but RG3 was hurt even before he threw that 2nd touchdown--Shanahan should have pulled RG3 before half time--he was hurt already. Had RG3 not been injured, the Redskins would have won that game quite easily, Seatle had no answer to stop the Redskins offense. Once RG3 got hurt however, it was over, because not only could RG3 not run, but he couldn't throw either, because you have to plant your foot of your right leg to throw the ball accurately.
Dare I say it, if RG3 had not gotten hurt in the Seahawks game, not only would they have won that game, but seriously, no team could figure out the Redskins offense. Could anyone have stopped them? The Redskins already beat the eventual champion Ravens earlier in the season. Yes, RG3 had a bad game statistically against Pittsburgh, but the reason is that his receivers dropped 12 freakin' passes in that game, including a drop by TE Fred Davis for a sure touchdown--Davis was running free into the endzone at the goal line, RG3 put the ball right into his hands, and Davis freakin' drops it. That was the worst game I've ever seen regarding receivers dropping the ball, many drops on third down that would have been first downs extending the drives, changing the whole complexion/flow of the game.
I really hope EJ does well. I think he was taken a little too high in the draft but being a Bills fan we are just really desperate for a quarterback of the future. I am just excited for him and that we finally drafted one instead of trying to turn castoffs into franchise quarterbacks.How do you feel about EJ Manuel?
