Robert
Griffin III
Strengths
After watching RGIII’s tape it was confirmed to me
how fast he is. He is a threat running the ball becoming the instant fastest
player on the field. He will hurdle you, run through you, juke you, or just
plain run past you. This forces the defense to focus on his running making it
easier to pass. He is also tough not afraid to take the big hit to get a first
down. It is rare to see a player in this much of the spotlight not be selfish,
but he is a team player who is more mature than most NFL players. He has
stepped into the leadership role in his team. The other far less talked about
aspect of his game is that he can throw. He can throw from the pocket or on the
run. My favorite part of his passing game is his deep ball because he can hit
guys spot on 50 yards down the field. I had never pictured him as a deep ball
guy more of a throw on the run short pass guy but, I was wrong. He is a
playmaker
Weaknesses
Simply put, he runs too much. He is relatively small
for a running QB and cannot take the hits he took this season. This leads to
injury such as his ACL and LCL tear. His biggest strength has become his
kryptonite. If he can learn to become a better passer first and runner second I
believe he will be fine but that’s not what everyone else wants. His running is
spectacular and his rookie season was a highlight reel, something that we
haven’t seen in a while, so the NFL and the Redskins want more.
Bottom
line
This guy is a rare talent who can take control of
the NFL. I don’t want him to take the run away, because that is what makes him
special. But, just use his running less and avoid hits, by sliding or running
out of bounds. He is a better passer the he is given credit so if he would use
that more, There is no sealing to his success in the NFL.
