Physically/athletically I think that the guy has some special gifts, especially that Gailey is suppose to excel in developing young QBs but attitude wise Russell is another story. Him being rumored as an underacheiver with a indifferent work ethic sure takes away a lot of his redeeming athletic qualities. Big time QBs are hard to find and I'm wondering if the positives outweigh the negatives and if he can be motivated enough to progress in his young career.

Depends.

 

He is extremely lazy, which is why he is having troubles adopting to the NFL. His amazing talents carried him in college, but now he lacks the work ethic to win. It is reported in SI that when he signed his first contract he started talking about retirement. He is only in it for the $$. We need players that are motivated to WIN.

 

So, perhaps we could take him on the gamble he grows up, but I wouldn't give anything above a 5th rounder for such a risk.
