RGIII Refuses To Work Out For The Colts (and the other 31 teams in the league)
 
I have not seen this posted but it looks like RGIII might want to come here and not play for the Colts.

This is interesting, but I'm not sure we can quite reach the conclusion that RGIII would rather join the Skins than the Colts simply because he turned down the Colts' workout invitation. As the article also said, he would refuse a workout with any team.

He isn't going to work put for any team.. and we didn't/won't ask him to either

Still can't believe he texted a pic of himself flipping the bird to Irsay.

Colts have argueably the worst roster in the NFL, and now an Owner/GM(can't wait to see all his picks after luck). It's not exactly a great landing spot.

I'm not saying the skins are the best place either, but they look quite a bit better next to Indy.

If he goes to Indy for a non-workout visit, then he didn't snub them. Or Irsay for some bizarre reason doesn't twitter that.

@RGIII: Was great meeting with Redskins brass last week: Mr. Snyder, Mr. Cerrato and coach Gibbs. They assured me that coach Shanahan would take great care of me while in D.C.

I'd feel a lot better if Zorn was involved too. Without his expert tutelage who knows how bad Mike and Kyle "Team QB Wreckers" will screw Griffin up.

Great Oden's Raven!

I would've figured his top 5 looked like this:

5. herp
4. derp
3. huck it chuck it football!
2. 3 2nd rounders = way better than 1 first
1. Past his prime Chad Ochocinco = way better than 2 first rounders.

Is there some sort of shadow front office in the works here? Should we expect a military coup coming soon?

Can you imagine RG3 on the slip'n'slide drill? He would be soooo awesome with that! And it would be an excellent use of his skills. ... Seriously, I heard the reason he won't work out for the is Colts b/c they won't have any awesome drills like that.

We should demand RGIII come out and work out for us. If he doesn't, Tannenhill at number 2 baby! That'll teach that arrogant so and so.

I haven't told anyone this yet, so I just want you guys to know you are the first to hear this, but my source indicates RG3 turned down a request for a private workout by the Colts. What an arrogant young man.

Re: RGIII Refuses To Work Out For The Colts (and the other 31 teams in the league)
 
I already have mine. I tried to have RGIII sign it last month when I was having drinks with Bruce Allen in Hooters but he laughed and said, "No F'ing way man. I'll never sign with them! Hell, I won't even do a pre-draft work out for them!"

I heard RG3 refuses to workout for Donovan McNabb.

He also won't eat Kix unless Mikey likes it.

I hear Donovan McNabb won't even work out for Donovan McNabb. What a lazy prick...

Whoops, sorry, got carried away a little there.

Re: RGIII Refuses To Work Out For The Colts (and the other 31 teams in the league)
 
Ok, not to spoil your alls fun.....

But I read somewhere earlier today that apparently RG3 was a Bronco's fan growing up. Who was the coach at the time? none other then our beloved M.Shanahan. So there might part of the reason- RG3 wants to play for M.Shanahan. Then there is what others have pointed out... and thats MS has led SB winning teams. He knows how to win. The Colts have a HC that really has not done much and the team is "rebuilding". Then there is the market. Obviously DC has a better market and although he will be making about $1 mill less then the #1 pick RG3 can make up for it out side of Fed Ex and football.

All that said I don't think that was the reason for the snub. although I like the fact he and MS seemed to hit it off. It was reported that RG3 told all teams right after the Combine that he would only be working out at Baylor and if anyone wanted to see him they needed to be at his Pro Day. What does RG3 have to gain? he knocked his pro day out of the park so if nothing else all he would be doing at this point is waisting time or lowering his value< but he knows he's either going #1 or #2. The Skins moved up to possibly take him. So there really is no need to work out for anyone.

I think the Colts are trying to set up some questions so Luck will feel obligated to not fight as hard and sign whatever the Colts offer (I know Rookie CAP). Where as now he has some leverage if he knows the Colts are only looking at him. The Colts just need to get off their arses and just get a deal done with Luck... make him happy, make themselves happy, make the fan base happy and get ready for draft day.

Other arm bands used by the Skins...

Trent W. and F. Davis: Stay away from the chronic!
L. Landry: Stop celebrating after meaningless tackles!
D. Hall: Shut the f*ck up and stop getting burned!
Kyle Shanahan: Run the f*cking ball!! (first half of the season)

Griffin would kill on the slipnslide! that would be worth atleast $15 plus parking to go to Skins training camp, I heard Snyder thought charging for it is a great idea.
