Losing out on RG3 is devastating to Browns - AFC North Blog - ESPN

Nice to know that the Browns were willing to do about the same deal. I'd like to think we offered just a tad bit more to get it done. If giving up a 2nd this year can be called a tad. Still good to know we didn't offer much more more than the Browns. That article actually makes me feel better. Thanks

That about sums up where we would have been if BA/MS didn't get the deal done.

so they are done with the colt mccoy project? i thought he could stick it out with them for a year, they had a better qb situation than us, more up side at least. sure dosen't sound like clevland wants anything to do with him.

No matter what, rglll brings instant excitement and national attention. Weve been a boring franchise for awhile now with offseason moves not equaling on field excitement. Im happy. I might even get season tickets. This move is going to make the ds a ton of money.

True dat. Notice this thread. A lot of strangers showing up because of the excitement.

So basically the other QB's in this draft have no chance at being successful starters? Not buying it.

I'm glad we made this move before Griffin has his proday and wows the media once again. The trading partners could've went up after his pro day.

Maybe if he is amazing enough at his proday we can trade the pick to the browns for their two first rounders this year and their 1st rounders in 13 and 14.

j/k, I am excited about RGIII.

Redskins, Rams wanted to keep trade quiet until Monday | ProFootballTalk

At last minute, Browns tried and failed to trade for Rams’ pick | ProFootballTalk

Redskins traded more for Griffin than Giants for Eli, Falcons for Vick | ProFootballTalk

RG3 won't have time, but he'll have plenty of pressure in D.C. - NFL - CBSSports.com News, Rumors, Scores, Stats, Fantasy Advice

I think he will deal fine with pressure. He did fine with pressure the last 3-4 games when he was making the push for the heisman.

Re: Redskins agree to trade for No.2 overall pick in 2012 Draft

I don't think I said I wanted Clausen here (well apart from the 2010 draft). What I have said in recent months is that he could be available and I've heard the Skins might be interested in him as a young QB with upside, but not as the new franchise guy. And I didn't see what the harm is in that
