Btw, seems like Cousins is a good leader, but immobile - negative 100 yards rushing I believe in his career.. IF RG3 ever goes out, we'd have to completely switch our game plan, etc.
Here's my question -- why did Cousins' drop? Past Foles, Osweiler, etc. Sure, maybe he was a "steal", but why did everyone else pass on him three times?

I'm pretty sure RGIII will learn the standard fare in the Shanahan offense in addition to the special plays just for him, similar to Newton learning the Air Coryell along with the plays to take advantage of his natural abilities.
