It definitely depends on whether or not they can adjust to be a more traditional drop back passer. There's nothing wrong with making plays with your feet as a QB, but you can't rely on that as your primary weapon. If you can be a great dropback passer and still make occasional plays on your feet, then you can be successful for a number of years. Aaron Rodgers is a good example of this. The sophomore QB's this year have the ability to do that as well. Kaepernick looks like he's there already. As far as I remember, I don't think Russell Wilson took too many big hits last season. Andrew Luck has been running for his life behind the Colts' crappy O line, but he can be a great traditional passer. RG3 I think needs more work in this and hopefully it will develop as he gets more playtime and experience.
