Re: Grade the Redskins Moves So Far

I cant believe 31% think it is an odrinary offseason. My god man, we trade three ones, and a second to move up 4 spaces to pick Griffin. Thats the most I have ever seen given up for one player. I am happy about it, but ordinary?

Yeah I don't get it either. We could have found a once in a lifetime kind of QB that could bring this franchise back to a level of respectability we haven't seen in 20 years. If that's not enough to get you excited I give up.

I think 99% of the Redskin fans are excited about RG3. It's just a lot to give up for one guy. But I'm not so much concerned about him and his ability. That's not in question. I'm more concerned about the organization that he's coming to.

Can you elaborate on that? The on field product (roster around him) or the organization and its structure (Shanahans, Allen and Snyder)?

Snyder, KS and MS. I don't trust any of them. This kid is going to need stability. All of the great QB's in the NFL have it. They stay in the same offense and their offenses are molded around them. I'm skeptical if that will happen here. If we win 4-6 games next year, which could easily happen, will Snyder stay the course? Will the Shanahans design an offense around RG3? We'll see.

Thats probably because a vote for (B) requires a "better than expected" attitude and we have been expecting the Redskins to go after a QB this draft. Also the Redskins are notorious for giving up picks for just one guy so again, very expected and ordinary. With that said I think even those who voted (C) are excited about Luck/RG3 possibilities.

So you are the type that is going to call one of the boldest trades in NFL history, ordinary. I can understand love it or hate it, but to call this offseason ordinary is delusional. Last year we were expecting a new QB, and we got two, Beck and Crumpton,. Infact, I have been looking for a new Qb every year, since we lost Rypien. All I know is, I am extremely excited, and the Redskins are doing everything in there power, minus 36 million, to make this team better.
