Re: Redskins agree to trade for No.2 overall pick in 2012 Draft
Bruce Allen: Redskins fell in love with two players in this draft | ProFootballTalk
Quote:
Redskins General Manager Bruce Allen says the logic behind the huge trade to move up four spots in this year’s NFL draft is simple: There are two great players in this draft and neither of them will still be on the board at No. 6, but one of them will be on the board at No. 2.
Obviously, the two players Allen is referring to are Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III, and with the Colts almost certain to draft Luck, the Redskins will get Griffin. Allen says the Redskins are thrilled with that.
“We fell in love with two players in the draft and one of those players will be a great Redskin,” Allen said.
Allen said getting the trade done prior to free agency was important because it allows the Redskins to start putting together their team around the rookie quarterback they’ll add next month.
