And with a rookie QB . Thinking about 3-4yrs down the road , when they all have more experience and really know what they're doing - it should be awesome .

And for all you RG3 fans..... Note only 1 player on the whole list. In the thirties! Soooooooooo, Luck > RG 3.

That should end that debate!

Are you going to urge them to do that? I think we should just forge ahead. Let's not argue about it. (was that 3?)

I don't see the point in the comparisons. They are in completely different situations, and it's just turning into another Manning v Brady story. That will never end either side.

Back on topic, our rookies are making waves! Think people are taking it for granted just how good they ALL have been. Hilton has been a HUGE find for our team making plays and getting into the endzone. Wasn't it just marvellous watching someone return a punt for a TD for the first time in 10000000 years? Lol. Ballard & Allen have settled in very well and Luck is just Luck :)

I talked to my redskin friend at work about it. He is a good guy and said he just wants to make the playoffs ...winning would be gravy.

Our rookies are the most fun I have had in a long time. I love this season.

Darn... I guess maybe we should have acquired a rookie WR in the offseason and kept him artificially high on the depth chart so he could compete with TY Hilton for some needlessly competitive reason.

I'm okay with the guy we have listed at #38, though, because he also happens to third in the entire league in rushing and is tied with Doug Martin for first among rookies ;)

Great rookie class! I remember during and after the draft how many people were complaining about how Grigson and his team didn't address the defense. Obviously, he made the right call. Not one of his skill position draft choices has been a disappointment. And the jury is still out on Anderson and Chapman. Fugger,we will probably never know, and Harnish looks like a future #2 if someone doesn't steal him. Grigson keeps this up and maybe one day he could be up there with the great Bill Polian.

Time will tell if he's more like TD or more like Tatum Bell. It's hard to tell with a Shanahan RB.

If you know what to look for you can get a pretty good idea of where a guy stands in the system. Morris is clearly better where it counts most than any back Shanahan has had here. I don't think he'll ever live up to TD but he looks like he could come much closer than the vast majority of guys who went through the system in Denver. His consistency and vision is pretty outstanding and that's what's important above all else.

That won't stop Shanahan from attempting to upgrade if he sees the opportunity, of course, but that won't stop us from enjoying the kid now.

Oh, it would be a shame, if I said, that Wilson has beat more top tier teams than RG3 & Luck.

TD was unbelievable, besides the Colts RBs he was probably my fav non Colt RB. Exciting to watch, it's unfortunate that injuries ruined what could've been one of the most unbelievable RB careers ever. He gets an A+ in my book. I think Alfred will be solid, the Skins offense confuses defenders with the use of all the guys in the backfield. Until the league figures out how to contain that O, Alfred will have plenty of great seasons barring injury.

Vontae Davis is what happens when an unstoppable force meets and immovable object, then they have a kid.

If Luck averages 300 yards a game the rest of the way like he has been averaging. He will throw for more yards than Peyton ever has in his career for a season. How about that for a stat. So for all you Andrew Luck non believers what can you say about that? I'm a big Peyton fan but he has thrown a lot INTS for a season in his career before to.

What a great idea.
Derail the possible Luck v. RG3 skirmish by diverting attention over to the Luck v. Manning debate.
Brilliant. :)

just jokin' with ya'
What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I think all round the 2012 Rookie Class will go down as one the best ever, well for rookie season anyway.

Luck/Griffin/Martin/Richardson/Morris/Kuechly/Freeman (Not a True Rookie I know/Irvin/Wright/Allen/Jenkins to name a few.

Grigson looks more and more like a genius for moving up to get T.Y. now doesn't he?

Allen is turning out to be one of the steals in this draft. He will be insanely good for years to come.

You need to work at the NFL Net.....Tyvon....you have hit on the E-True Hollywood Story...

The Indy story isnt so much Luck..as it is a team with 4 rookie starters on offense and 6 rookie regulars (Ballard, Brazil, Hilton, Fleener, Allen and Luck) 2 wins from the playoffs..

I would bet cash money that has not been done since the early days of the AFL....
