Redskins trade up to #2

[DaCityKats]

If you need a QB,you go get one.but damn.............

[JawnyBlaze]

If he turns out to be as successful as Cam, well worth it (but still a much steeper price than we paid, man I'm glad 2010 was the year we decided to suck for this decade). Still a huge risk, though.

That guy will not be fun to gameplan for

What's to gameplan? Our defense goes against the prototype every single day in practice.

Wish nothing but the best for rg3 even if he is a deadskin

[MWCarolina]

Wow...they want RGIII

more like they want a QB, RG3 or Luck and no one else. as a Redskins and panther fan, i think the Redskinsn gave up alot, but if RG3 is as good as people say, it's worth it after watching what Newton did in Carolina, i dont think RG3 is in Newton's league, but he's worth getting.

With the 2nd pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins select.........Trent Richardson.

ROFL

hahaha, that would be an insult to trading up, plus Washington has no need for a RB, Helu and Royster actually werent bad.

They did give up a lot, but Redskins love free agency

[fieryprophet]

I'm just glad we have a head-start on teams like the Colts (who seem deadset on destroying themselves AFTER landing their new QB) and the Redskins (who have banked a lot on their new QB.)

In the cycle of quarterbacking refreshment around this league we've suddenly jumped ahead of the curve.

So is this is the most ever give up to move up in the first round particularly not to the first pick?? All this for the second best quarterback in the draft. Wow. At least New York got the first pick with Manning.

I get why they did it but this is unprecedented. Isn't it????

[teeray]

Shanahan will fug RGIII up. This is the only time in history I would like to see a player pull the, "I won't play for you so trade me or I won't sign and go into free agency!!" That would be too sweet.

[rico6]

lmao, Cam Newton has started a movement.

[teeray]

At least I will get to see RG3 play on Panther's bye week

He did win the Heisman. This year QB draft is unprecedented and they need one, badly

Great move by the Skins. Fantastic move by Snyder. Remember how many picks the Giants gave up for Eli? The Chargers rather have Eli back ... instead of ... what's his name?

First round picks are overrated. If RGIII will give a team 10 good years, then it is worth it. Plus the skins are 40millions under the cap. Think about this. Look at the established receivers on the market. Reggie Wayne, Mike Wallace, Marcus Colston, ...

Of course, he could be a bust too ... but, let's be honest. Have you looked at the list of QBs that have gone through the Skins?

McNabb, John Beck, Patrick Ramsey, Grossman, Wuerfel, Gannon,Rypen, Shuler, Shane Matthews, Brad Johnson, ... Give me a break.

A good QB brings stability to your franchise for 10+ years ..
