Agility score was not shown for RGIII (http://mockdraftable.com/player/102/) since he did not participate in the 3Cone drill or the 20 yard short shuttle, but was for Russell Wilson - Agility Score: 11.06. http://mockdraftable.com/player/303/ and Andrew Luck - Agility Score: 11.08.
http://mockdraftable.com/player/175/. Note that Johnny Manziel - Agility Score: 10.78 was available
http://mockdraftable.com/player/4337/, but is a lower score than that of Wilson or Luck.
For reference purposes, Kirk Cousins - Agility Score: 11.55 – score is higher than the other QBs listed in this post. http://mockdraftable.com/player/57/
