His talent in this system isn't worth the distraction quite honesty.
So ultimately Griffin being off this team makes it a better team in the locker room and from a PR standpoint. From a "on the field" standpoint, it really doesn't affect us whether he's on the squad or off of it. All this is purely disregarding the 16 mil as well.

If Cousins doesn't do well, there'll be drama whether RG3 is here or not. However, I do agree that if it is not necessary, RG3 shouldn't be kept on the roster. I am fine with the team seeking something for him.
