I'm guessing in the neighborhood of 4 yrs $25M.

Remember that Cam got 4 yrs $22M.

i wish the draft was tomorrow. not excited about drafting griffin since i know its 99% going to happen but im thrilled for him to suit up for us. Im excited to see what other moves we make move up/back or gather more picks and who we take.

It's like when you have friends over to the house for the first time and you give them the grand tour.

Do you think they might slip him a Playbook. Never mind answering noticed you kind of answered this question in a later post.

Man...I've been a little nervous about the Colts picking up RGIII.

I started following Irsay on Twitter the other day.

He is absolutely crazy. Half the time I think he's on drugs. Please let them sign Luck before the draft so I can stop reading this guy's rants!!

PWNED · 03-29-2012, 12:00 AM

not happening. you meet with your qb before you draft him. the colts not wanting to have rg3 for a private workout is the most obvious foreshadowing ever. its not like theyd want to hahve some smokescreen.

I love it, Bobby Beathard might be at the Redskins draft with Bruce Allen.

good stuff, but there is Don Banks stating 3 first rounders for the 2nd spot. Usually not a big fan of Banks, kinda a reason why. I expect a journalist to know its not 3 first round picks.

It kinda is. A first round pick this year, a first round pick next year, and a first round pick the year after that = 3 first rounders. Sure the 2nd overall pick cancels this years' first out, but we still had to give it up in the deal. He's not talking about net picks lost, he's talking about the parameters of the deal.

MTK · 03-29-2012, 10:44 AM

Fact, we gave up 3 first rounders and a 2nd rounder in exchange for the 2nd overall.

Its two first rounders, a second, and a swap of 1st rounders this year. St Louis is not gaining 3 first rounders and we are not losing 3 first rounders. Thats the way I see it.

You are correct that it is two first rounders and a second rounder NET.

But most literally, we are giving them 3 first rounders and a second, they are giving us a first. Paperwork filed with the league will show us giving up 3 firsts.
