I love the Skins fans that think RGIII is somehow choosing to play for the Redskins over the Colts.

Get real!

I think after the arbitrator hears our case we should get back part of our salary cap hit and sign london and can address our interior line and draft the best player available… tackle, db, ilb or guard and the Commissioner can kiss every redskin fans a$$

Lol at the Skins not caring which they draft. Also lol at being anything the next 3-4 years. They have suck WRs, yeah Meachem is a #3. And now you’re hampered not only in the draft but also Free Agency.

You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about, and you proved it by mentioning Meachem.

========================
What team are you talking about? Because the Skins do not have Meachem on their roster. The Skins have 7 picks this draft, and are still 8 million under the cap.

Look for you slow people:
Andrew Luck college accuracy rating: 71.3
RGIII college accuracy rating: 76.4

Pay attention, there is an edge there…

__________________

Not really. You’re comparing apples and oranges. Due to the differences in offensive schemes and players, most of RGIIIs passes were to open receivers for long yardage. Luck was throwing pinpoint passes into double coverage for shorter yardage. RGIII is wonderful and any team should be thrilled to get him, but he’s not nearly as accurate as Luck in most situations. RGIII gets the ball to his receivers. Luck gets the ball into his recievers hands, in stride and leading them in the right direction away from the coverage.

It should be no guessing as to who the Colts are going to pick. It was evident all year they were tanking for Luck.

I hope he lives up to the hype. Media attention like this creates a lot of pressure. And the other important thing I hope the Skins do is take another o lineman or two in the 3rd and 4th to develop and keep improving that unit. That’s what’s going to help Griffin succeed.

A sensible posting from a real football fan. As a Skins fan of 35 years I thank you for your comment. There are some very strange people on here that come up with rediculous unfounded comments. Parity in the league has taken the level down, not up, and only teams that draft well and spend money on FA’s are giving us some good football games to watch come play-off time. There are too many owners sitting on the cash they get from you and high revenue teams. You should be on here crticising your owners, not those of other teams that are at least trying to get better. The Skins have been in rebuild mode for 3 years now, and doing it mostly the right way, believe me, they are close to being very good, and soon.

First of all, it ridiculous. But that’s what he wants you to say. He is no different than those kids that write the n word in comments on YouTube. Not to say that he is being racist, but that he is an absolute provocateur, not deserving of acknowledgement. Hey anon, why don’t you write something either original, or at least say why you think rg3 will be a bad qb

“I’m a Packers fan, and I find it so funny (and stupid) that people somehow think the Redskins have done anything wrong at all with their offseason. They have brilliantly put themselves in prime position to draft one of the 2 best prospects that college football has to offer in years. The only thing going on in D.C. right now is good solid team building, and sound reasoning. The NFL will lose their cap penalty case, and the Redskins will use the surplus money to acquire even more solid players. Hate them all you want for whatever reason, but this team is headed in the right direction. Unlike the Browns, Dolphins, and Jags, the Redskins constantly try to improve their team every offseason. They spend money, they recruit, and they are always trying to crawl out of their recently troubled past. I like this team, and people should see the writing on the wall: You can’t keep a destined team down for ever. The Skins are a storied franchise and it’s better for the league when they are good. Go get em Skins!”

Right…and RG3 hitting 49/50 passes at his pro day didn’t mean anything at all…..

Dude,

Your always quick to respond to this site, and the same old comment is worthless. For us that like to enjoy the site a couple of times a day, and read some great post, please save your intelligence for work.

In your spare time, please go shine your Chevy Volt– As the President of Audi recently commented about the Volt, “It’s a car for Idiots”.

Please spare us.

Diresb21 comments equate to the droppings of my lab which I pick up with a plastic bag. Who is your team exactly? Cowboys or eagles? As if it matters. Enjoy the era of RGIII. I know I will

Agreed.
