Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
But I thought Snyder wasn't going to allow this?!

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
The RG3 era is over. At this point, you HAVE to cut the guy. The distraction with him on the team would be overwhelming to keep him.
He probably wasn't until McC had to convince him.

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
I don't see the doom and gloom that some of you feel. I think it is great that the team is closer to making the correct decision of parting ways with RGIII. Yes, it sucks it did not work out and to hear all of the Dan Snyder/Redskins hate on the national media this morning.
But with the option year on RGIII's contract makes it difficult for him to be on anyones roster in 2016. He will have to be cut and a new minimum contract would have be created. Nobody will offer us a low round draft pick with his contract and that huge cap hit in 2016 in place. |

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
WTF???? More reports that Darth Snyder DID NOT block the Rg3 moves?
Nooooooooo............... https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...ly-diminished/ Two people with knowledge of the team’s planning each said Snyder is not blocking his front office and coaching staff from trading Griffin. One called an ESPN report that suggested that, “100 percent wrong.”

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
I tried to trade RG3 in madden last night and all 31 teams had a "red" interest level.
breaking up is never easy. after a few regular season games, some good D, maybe a 2-2 start and all this RG3 talk will be in the rear view mirror and we will be talking football Xs and Os, stats, how callahan and grays schemes work or dont work etc. regular football talk is coming. All is well. -------------------------- Pretty sure if a person wants to change fandom they need to go to the last place team. How do you look in that jags teal and sand brown? What happens if the skins finish last? I think you have the option to just retire or stay a skins fan for 1 more year. |

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
If/when RGIII is released, I would like to see Scot McC go after Jared Goff QB out of Cal-Berkeley in next years draft, he's the second coming of A. Rodgers.

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
It may require them all
After watching Robert in the pre..... I was really dreading how this season was going to lay out. SM's presence is taking shape, and I like it.

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
Not gonna lie I'm glad it's over and yes I was a huge fan of his but the drama and all that needs to go. I'd trade him for a 4 or 5 and say good luck.
PS also glad our QB won't be wearing some dumb sleeve and glove on just one arm either that got annoying.

2) You can't trade him due to that 16million option they picked up earlier this year. I think our only resort will be to cut him.

Re: Robert Griffin III ready to turn career around with Redskins in 2015
Right there with ya. I remember I was at my friend's house (he was a huge Saints fan) for the first game of his rookie year when he lit up the Saints and we won. I was so ecstatic, from that moment on I truly thought we were gonna be set for years to come. Now I can't wait until he's gone so we can get on with rebuilding the roster.
