Help Me Choose A QB

So when Madden 13 comes out, me and my a few friends are going to start an Online CC. For about the past month, I've had my mind set on trading for Robert Griffin III. Today though, as I was looking over the QB ratings, I found a few more that I would like to play with. Jake Locker, Ryan Tannehill, Russel Wilson, and Terrelle Pryor.

I like each once of these guys. They are all mobile QB's and have okay to good throwing power. The one thing most of them lack though is throwing accuracy. I plan to be a run heavy team, but when I do pass the ball it will be a lot of roll out plays that involve mainly short to medium throws. There accuracy can all be improved by XP though.

Obviously RG3 is going to be the best player in the game of the bunch, but it could possibly cost me to much to trade for him. I think the other players being cheaper, would allow me to improve another position or two on my team as well.

There is something else I've also been wondering. I know about how players progess through XP. But if I have a lower overall rated player reach his goal, will he receive the same amount of XP as would the higher overall rated player for reaching his goal? Also, is there an age when players start to decline?

Anyways, I just want to hear some opinions on who you all think would be a good choice. I want some fun out of it and I kind of just want to show all my friends that I can beat them with a lower rated player. It would also make a good story line if I can make one of these QB's one of the best in the league.

Ok so you want a lowly rated QB

Who is mobile

Who can roll out

Who will only be expected to make short throws

You want to be a run first team

You have a Gator symbol as your logo

...it can't really be that tough can it? :P *Gets on one knee*

Are you trying to trade for RG3 straight away? If so you will not get him or you play the game very unrealistic.

We just play the game for the fun of it. None of us care who trades for who or anything like that. If I went for RG3 it would be right away. But I doubt I will want to give up what they ask for him. Not really worried about what anyone else thinks is unrealistic, that's why it is just a game made to have fun. You can do things different on it than how people would do it in real life.

Joe Webb maybe? I don't know much about his throwing abilities but I know he can run.
