Robert Griffin trade rumors already spinning out of control
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on February 28, 2012, 4:04 PM EST

APForget the Combine. Forget free agency. Robert Griffin III trade chatter dominates the NFL discussion these days.

And it’s still February.

Perhaps Rams COO Kevin Demoff is right: It’s getting less crazy to imagine a deal could be completed before free agency. We’ve read and heard an unprecedented amount of trade rumors about the No. 2 overall pick for this time of year.

Let’s go over the latest:

1. Mike Jones of the Washington Post writes the Redskins would give up the No. 6 overall pick and next year’s first round pick in addition to multiple picks in the mid-to-upper rounds of the draft. Consider this the starting point for negotiations.

The Rams are reportedly looking for a similar package to the one San Diego netted for Eli Manning: Two firsts (including the No. 4 overall pick), a third- and fifth-round pick. The Redskins sound ready to meet this demand.

2. Texas A&M prospect Ryan Tannehill is watching the Griffin talk closely. Jones believes the Redskins would take Tannehill at No. 6 overal if they can’t get Griffin.

3. Terry Pluto of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer believes the Browns will ultimately have to give up three first-round picks in order to land Griffin. Do I hear four, Redskins? (This reminds us of a classic article by the Onion.)

4. Demoff told Peter King of SI.com that the Rams received a feeler from a team “you would never expect.” Does Kansas City count? If not, we’ll roll with Philadelphia as our irresponsible guess for a mystery team. Enter your pick below.

5. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch considers the Redskins the early favorite to land Griffin. This sounds true based on all the reports, plus Mike Shanahan’s close relationship with Jeff Fisher.

My goodness, is the world about to end? A scenario to get RGIII that you support.

If you read the thread, I want to trade up to get RGIII. I am supportive of any trade up that doesn't force us to abandon a bunch of our picks. I really like Laz's offer because the extra first round pick we'd be giving up is one we only get because we traded away a player we were planning to lose anyway.

Dr. Johnny Fever · 10-23-2012, 04:17 PM

RGIII or:

Poe
Allen
Stephenson
Wylie
Menzie
Gray
Long

Yeah, that would have been an awful trade.

The 2012 draft class was far too important to the franchise than to trade it away for Griffin.

Good thing Clark is going to give Pioli a 5th chance

**DaneMcCloud** · 10-23-2012, 04:31 PM

Good to see that Chiefzilla was on the wrong side of the argument.

What else is new?

If we ended up at eleven this year I'm on record saying we should sign Bowe and Albert and trade the next two drafts for Smith

good thing we have no chance at signing Bowe or Albert and will have to play unproven turds like Baldwin and Stephenson to surround our 1st round rookie QB

thanks Scott you fat idiot

Fortunately, there's no way that happens.

The Chiefs will pick top three, although I think number one overall until proven otherwise.

You guys are reeruned. The Redskins gave up two firsts and a second to swap up from the sixth pick. It would have taken at least an extra first for us to move up from #11, if not more simply because it would have been so far out. that is worth a shitton more than our entire 2012 and 2013 draft picks put together.

At this point, RGIII is showing that he would have been worth whatever you had to trade for him. That kid is incredible.

kcxiv · 10-23-2012, 05:02 PM

Albert i think we can sign, Bowe, he's gone.
