I can't believe we have to wait six months to see Griffin --> Garcon in a real game. I can't wait!

Cleveland Browns' Mike Holmgren says Browns' offer to Rams for RG3 was "every bit'' as good as Redskins' | cleveland.com

CLEVELAND -- Browns President Mike Holmgren, on a conference call with season ticket holders today, said the Browns offer to the Rams to trade up to No. 2 for Robert Griffin III "was every bit the offer that was chosen.''

The Browns reportedly had offered three No. 1 pick, but not a second. He said all of the reports have been incorrect. The Redskins pulled off the deal with three No. 1s and a second-rounder.

"There are reasons it didn't happen,'' said Holmgren. "There's a very close relationship with'' the parties that got it done.

He added, "I'm not sure any offer was going to be good enough. We were very aggressive and it didn't work. Rest assured, we were aggressively involved in that.''

How can three #1's be every bit as good as three #1s AND a 2nd? Is it that new math?

I guess he was talking about the #4 being better than #6 which would equal a second rounder? I dunno........

Their ones were higher/more valuable/came sooner than our ones.

The only sense I saw was their #4 and the other first rounder being this year as compared to having to wait to us next year's....of course I'm hoping that next year's first rounder is the last pick of the first round!

I posted awhile back that i felt the relationship between Shanny and fisher would be the difference that landed the #2 pick for us. I guess i was right!

This could be the case, but if you are the Rams wouldn't you want the higher pick (Brown's #4) and to send RG3 to the AFC? Which is why I think that they may have not given the Rams an equal offer.
