Yes, because we used the pick on RG3. Therefore if you're going to count "getting a pick back", then count using it, so the "math" would be 3-1+1=3. And don't forget the 2nd rounder we gave up last draft as well.
Another way to put it: If we didn't do that trade, and simply picked another guy, we would have given up one 1st rounder for that guy. What did we give up for RG3? Three 1sts and a 2nd. It's no more complicated than that, people!
