It’s three 1st rounders that are being traded by the Skins. If you’re “exchanging” first-round picks, you’re still trading one of them. Seems that you were desperate to find something to snark on.

The Redskins mortgaged their future to get a franchise QB. They still have a lot of holes to fill, and now have to go back to their over-priced, over the hill free agent system that has gotten them exactly nothing in the Snyder era.

The Rams get a lot of picks, half of which may even pan out, but Fisher is a career .500 coach, who is 5-6 in the playoffs with three of those wins coming in the ’99 Miracle year. Also, no bounty system now.

Their tongues will be dragging on the ground chasing this kid around. Vick & RG3 in the same division will have the D linemen in the NFC East hitting the oxygen bottle.

No, your not getting it. The trade costs the skins 2 1sts and a 2nd. Drafting Griffin will cost them 3 firsts and a 2nd.

True. But with today’s CBA, Griffin won’t lock the ‘Skins into a cap-strangling gazillion dollar contract. It’s a totally different scenario. Now when a talent deficient team drafts first or second they’re obviously able to trade the choice for something of value. Thank you, CBA.

Right now this deal looks bad for the Skins, but only time will tell.

Truth be told, Ask the Packers, Patriots and Panthers how much they’d ask for Rodgers, Brady, or Cam in a trade. I bet dollars to donughts they’d ask for more than the Redskins gave up for RGIII.

If RGIII develops into the player the Redskins are betting, they will not be regretting it one bit in a few years.

1. Will sell a TON of Jerseys
2. Got everyone talking about Dan Snyder and Redskins.
3. Shows Shanny and Allen who’s still boss.
4. Will put butts in seats.
5. Will sell a LOT of beer at Stadium when lack of support means sam0-samo.
6. With no #1 picks for next couple of years will enable Snyder to make more pay-too-much trades for FAs
7. Did we mention everyone’s talking about Snyder and Redskins?
8. Suck on it Payton Manning.
9. Once again, YOUR offseason Champions!
10. Everyone talking about Snyder and the Redskins.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Ultimately, you traded four players for one player. Three of those players will be first-round talent, and one will be just outside the first round.

You don’t get a pass on losing out on the #6 overall this year because you moved up to #2. You probably could have had Blackmon if you stayed put (and the Rams will probably get him now). Basically, you traded Blackmon or whoever else you may have picked at 6 to move up to 2…along with three other players.

The Rams took you to the cleaners. As a Seahawks fan, I’m not happy, because it means that a division rival with a new front office is probably going to get the player they want this year (Blackmon), an extra high second rounder this year, and now have two #1s for each of the next two seasons. Hopefully, the guy making the picks will be about as successful as the last GM, but the odds that the new GM is that bad are pretty low.

Great trade for the Rams…how it ultimately is judged for the ‘Skins remains to be seen.
