Redskins agree to trade for No.2 overall pick in 2012 Draft

If we're comparing those draft classes.
Ryan Tannehill = Alex Smith
Andrew Luck = Aaron Rodgers
RGIII = ????

Here's hoping that he's better than Rodgers, but I think RGIII is better than Smith right now.

In all honesty, I happen to prefer what the Redskins actually did to taking Tannehill at six.

But I have to be right about BOTH Griffin AND Tannehill. If not right about both, then I am wrong about preferring this trade.

If Griffin isn't the clear no. 1 on the depth chart in 2014 for whatever reason and Tannehill is starting in this league, this will be the worst trade in modern NFL history, and what Shanahan will ultimately be remembered for, instead of the super bowls.

So yeah, this is very much going all-in. Recklessly all-in.

Agreed. Just a bit too reckless for my taste right now. Like I said, Griffin had better be solid gold. Forget clear #1 by 2014; we'd better be talking Pro Bowl in 2014.

No need to watch the first hour of the draft lol. Time to get the RG3 jersey, as soon as find out what number he is.

I was just driving on my lunch break and almost crashed my pickup when they broke this on KNBR. WTF is Shannahan doing! I rather take Tannehill instead of paying that price.

It's not like we traded a 2nd for TJ Duckett all over again.Redskins trade for RG3: "Hey, at least its not TJ Duckett!"

C'mon Tripp .... I knew u rain on our parade ... Lol. Whatever. I'm so f'ing happy

OH SHNAPS!!!

Am I feeling the Luck coming to us? :FIREdevil:

Agreed. Just a bit too reckless for my taste right now. Like I said, Griffin had better be solid gold. Forget clear #1 by 2014; we'd better be talking Pro Bowl in 2014.On the bright side, at least we have higher expectations for this quarterback than "worth two weeks of Doug Dutch."

Yoda? Really? I just said that when people said I was crazy for offering up (whats now nothing) a large amount of picks people said it wouldn't be that much I said it would to get it to that. That's all I was trying to say. I was gonna message you this but I can't message for some reason. Maybe you can tell me how.

So Lotus, who would you get for RG3 to throw to since we have no second rounder now?

Give it up. You didn't call anything because you did not say 3 #1's and a #2.

If your point was that Griffin would be expensive, many others said that, so why are you gloating?

Since you haven't gotten the point, let me say it in caps: DOUCHE.

I fully expect John Beck to compete with RG3 for the starting QB job..
