Redskins Sign Grossman

sandy - but how did those picks "significantly set back" those franchises? what was the teams record a few years before they were drafted compared to what the teams record was for a few years after the draft.

its a fine point but perhaps drafting a bust qb early really just wastes an opportunity for the team to improve and not significantly set the team back. theres a difference there.

if the lions were going about 4-12 for a few years before they drafted harrington, then go 4-12 for a few years after, that really didnt set the lions significatly back as much as it was a lost opportunity to improve the team.
