RG3's teammates coin term "The Arm"     -- Fri Jun 1 4:10 pm --

Highly touted rookie's throwing motion likened to Vick
The power is so great the Washington Redskins don't describe their prodigy's throwing as a verb but rather a noun. "The Arm," they say. And every conversation about Robert Griffin III includes some mention of "The Arm" because those players who have experienced it don't appear to have seen something quite like "The Arm" before. "It's more of running to your left and flicking your wrist and throwing the ball 70 yards," Washington's backup quarterback Rex Grossman said, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. "His arm almost comes off like a whip," Grossman added. It looks a lot like the way Michael Vick throws, Grossman finally said. (Yahoo Sports)

FF Today's Take: Griffin is a dual threat to pile up fantasy points through the air with "The Arm" and on the ground with his 4.41 second 40 time. Don't expect a Cam Newton-like season but Griffin could be a middle of the pack fantasy quarterback in 2012 - an impressive feat for a rookie.
