I do agree with the sentiment that you don't give away draft picks - first round draft picks, and expect to build a team. But let's face it. The season before RGIII and Cousins, the Redskins had John Beck and Rex Grossman. Let that set in for a bit.
Now, who knew that Russell Wilson was going to come in and play like he did? The Seahawks hadn't planned to start him right away. They got lucky with Wilson developing as fast as he did. And they also got lucky that Wilson didn't get hurt.
What gets me is that during the game last night, nobody was saying anything about the hits that Wilson was taking last night. Yeah, Gruden mentioned it, but not like it was when we'd see RGIII take hits. When RGIII ran the same play and took hits - "He's not going to be in the league very long if he's going to continue taking those hits".....Wilson takes the same hit - "Wow, Wilson got rocked but look how great he is!" Double standard in my opinion!

The big thing it seems is accruing draft picks.
