For those who are still grumpy about the price we paid for the trade, just look at what's going on in Cleveland where the team president is having to explain to their fan base why they didn't make the trade.
Or where I live in S. Florida, Dolphins fans are not at all excited about the prospect of Matt Flynn and are lukewarm at best on the thoughts of Ryan Tannehill in the draft.
Pick your poison, I'd rather be missing a few picks and getting a top flight QB this draft than being deflated once again about the most important position on the field.

The Dolphins are in awful shape. I feel bad for Philbin, who did the right thing to get rid of Marshall, even if it means selling low. They have a bad GM and a potentially good coach. I just don't see how that coach can succeed.
The Browns will probably be alright. A big question for them is whether Shurmur needs to win this year to keep Holmgren/Heckert all together. They'll be okay taking any of Tannehill, Blackmon, or Richardson at no. 4. Still think they are the best off of these three teams coming out of this year's draft.
The Redskins need to make a leap to contention sooner rather than later. There's not enough draft picks to justify struggling through this season. There is no: at least we'll be better when...
I think Griffin offers a legitimate path out of the vicious cycle of the last twenty years, but you can only put so much one guy. At some point, he'll need help. And by help, I don't mean Roy Helu and Pierre Garcon. I mean a player development machine that actually makes underachievers replaceable.
