The Facts:
Former NFL QBs coach Terry Shea spent a week with Griffin in March working on fundamentals and mechanics and came away feeling like the old Griffin was back. “He looked 100% healthy,” Shea said. “I put him through a gantlet of drills. And Robert made all the throws, showing great skills. It sure appeared to me that he took that next step as a pocket passer.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Shea should know. He was the guy who tutored Griffin prior to then 2012 draft as part of the effort to prepare the QB for NFL play. "I didn’t let up on him and, boy, he kept coming," Shea said of last month's sessions. "He reminded me of the old Robert Griffin that I knew coming out of Baylor for those eight-10 weeks we worked together in 2012. ..." Shea stressed footwork after watching Griffin throw too many passes with improper technique last season and felt that Griffin cleaned up much of what was wrong during their time together. Shea also feels the addition of coach Jay Gruden and wide receiver DeSean Jackson will be a big boost to a player that needs one after a rocky second year in the NFL. Still more positive buzz for fantasy owners to take into account as we roll through a very interesting offseason.
