^Yeah, but that was also Griffin's reputation 3 years ago.

I concur.

Dan McKlurken is now saying that Rivers is going to Tennessee in a trade and San Diego will be drafting Mariota.

It was not Griffin at all. Griffin loved the limelight from the start. There was nothing wrong with it. Just nice to see a guy like MM who just doesn't care for it.

Pretty ballsy if SD lets Rivers walk.

Re: Quarterback Hype
 

I think we draft Garrett Grayson (3rd round), Sean Mannion (4th round) or Shane Carden/Connor Halladay (6-7th) or a sleeper project UDFA Jamiel Showers.

Grayson is not a top 100 player in the country, he has no business going that high.

Was this really the case? Maybe i missed it. I seem to remember all of the pre-draft hype about RG3 - it was evident that he was a good guy, a NICE guy - but even then showed flashes of the diva mentality, was big into social media - alot of concerns, but then, like now, we were so desperate to win at any cost, we hoped that winning would somehow make all of that other stuff not matter...

[quote=SolidSnake84;1111624]Was this really the case?[/quote]Yeah, Griff was a clean prospect on and off the field. Was regarded as an all- around good guy.

not really a big deal because it can be retracted if he doesnt perform this year

I read an article that compared it to Franchise Tagging him only saving a couple of mil.

True. The deal is only guaranteed for injury. If he plays bad he can be cut.

I think this is a good idea. The organization has a lot invested in him and one more year to make absolutely sure wont hurt.
