Well, at least they mention the chiefs


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.

Drafting a QB in the first round is the new trendy CP thing to do...Damn the cost! I get your stance.

Bottom line is...KC trading up for RG3 will NEVER happen.

Unfortunately, that is all but a certainty.

If I am Clark Hunt, however, and look at it from a strictly business decision-- I'd have Pioli draft RG3 in a heartbeat. RG3 is exciting. RG3 creates buzz. RG3 would fill Arrowhead. RG3 would have Chiefs merchandise fly off the shelves. The Chiefs become relevant again.

Michael Vick did that in Atlanta. RG3 would do that here.

The value of the FRANCHISE would skyrocket.

That does not compute.Post makes too much sense!

So. By your standards.


Eli Manning (2 rings) < Philip Rivers (0 rings), Shawne Merriman (after getting busted for roids, he became busted and SHOULD be out of the league because he's worthless), Nate Kaeding (a ****ing kicker), and Roman Oben (SD traded the 5th for this aging veteran, he's retired now).

The Chargers would have kept Eli
THe Giants would have kept Philip
I have no clue who the Giants would have drafted with the picks they kept

They would have drafted those exact guys.

Mel Kiper says so.

I see RGIII being a very successful NFL QB and one that can win a SB so IMO the price isn't too high.

You can make the argument we're one franchise QB away from going deep in the playoffs or even contending for a Super Bowl so why not take that chance? I would be just fine if we went for it and it didn't work out as opposed to not even trying.

rg3 is a 3 yr project,every expert is saying that.

but
I don't know that Eli could over come Norf

I quietly question whether or not it's real.

That beats Matt Cassel being a lifetime project.

We had a franchise qb. Trent green. You don't ever wonder what this team could have been if we had any kind of success in drafting during the vermeil era? You don't remember how piss poor drafting decisions led us to 5 years of excruciatingly painful rebuild?

You have to have a franchise qb. And you have to draft consistently well. It is absolutely ridiculous to claim that any team abandon one of those things in pursuit of the other. This team hasn't had a franchise qb. Piss poor drafting is also to blame. But you know what? For the first time in years, I feel like our drafting is getting the job done.

The question is and always has been... Could Philip rivers win a super bowl with that supporting cast with Tom coughlin as a coach? Yes I think he could. Coaching is a huge culprit in San Diego's lack of success.

I stand by my claim from day 1 on CP.You draft and develop your own QB to win consistently.Having said that if Green had any help from the D while he was here,his legacy would be much different.I have no doubt that we would have won several playoff games with the way the O came around under DV.Ya cant win scoring 40 points on O if the D allows 41.
