    Jeff Fisher isn't exactly a guy that fixes quarterbacks. In fact that is probably the absolute worst situation for both RGIII and Johnny

    RGIII would probably be the best garbage we can attain at the moment. He is definitely better than the crap we threw out on the field this season. We still draft a QB

    In 2012 when accounting for drops, RG3 was the most accurate passer in the league at 73%. He has QB tools no doubt.

    What makes you think they went away?
    My biggest problem with Griffin is his prior injuries - otherwise he is intriguing if you wonder what OB might be able to do with him.
    We can't afford Brees, Kaepernick may also be interesting, Stafford won't leave Detroit and the rest are meh.
    Griffin is also familiar with the NFL game.

    The question with Brees is his availability, but we could most definitely afford him.

    RGIII hangs on to the ball too long, runs too early, now has bad mechanics, and stairs down receivers. He's a total project QB now that can't be relied on to come in and be the starter. BOB would rather stick with Hoyer over RGIII because at least Hoyer will try to run his offense. No chance he's coming here.

    Bradford is more likely IMO.

    I'm down.

    Draft a QB early though to develop.

    Mainly because its a new city and RG3 as a name still has some sex appeal to it despite the past couple of bad years.

    Just don't see the brand new LA team trotting out Nick Foles or Case Keenum out there week 1 to inspire the fanbase.

    The fan base will not need inspiration.

    Coaches, scouts target seven spots for RG III's next stop


    Kaepernick & Griffin are the hot, big names but I don't believe either are coming or are realistic candidates.

    Yup I believe we have some space already, and once you cut Foster and Hoyer should give us what we need. With Sean Payton staying in Nawlins I doubt Brees is going anywhere unless they are trying to do a rebuild

    technically "any other team" is the favorite 1/2

    Yes, Kap is staying since Kelly previously attempted to get him in Phila.
