I doubt it. Luck has a higher floor and is much less of an injury risk which after a year without Peyton is a huge selling point for the Colts. The question isn't weather RGIII is going to get injured but rather when.
I personally like Griffin more but if I was picking for the Colts I would take Luck. Luck is much more equipped to run a pro style offense in terms of routes and reading coverage out of a traditional NFL offense. He also has just as strong an arm as Griffin and while he's no where near the scrambler that Griffin is he can definitely move and pick up yards with his feet as well as create second chance opportunities.
There is no doubt that Baylor's offense is gimmicky and probably has some odd reads and adjustments which will factor against Griffin.
And theres no doubt Griffin can learn these things but with Luck it is less likely to be an issue.
I will say this though. Griffin is more likely to win rookie of the year then Luck even though Luck will be the better passer right out of the gate.
