Everyone should of picked RG3/Rex, please don't pull-up any of my old post. :)

very impressed with this guy, he should be great in the locker room

I actually loved the answer he gave to how he prepared for Georgia after Gruden told him the UGA DC was calling Saban asking him what he did to stop Cousins after which Cousins turned around and said he called Kellen Moore who "had lit up the Bulldogs earlier in the year" to get advice. Actually brought a tear of joy to my eye.

Yeah great answer.

You could tell Gruden really likes this kid.

So, I guess we can assume he will be a willing apprentice to the RGIII school of quarterbacking.

As for the Cousins pick, at first I was like many of us, confused and frustrated by the pick but then recognized this draft was more about 2013, 2014 and beyond than 2012. This addresses the most expensive and highest position of turnover in the league so now it's locked up, 2 deep for the next 4 years at what will be an affordable price. Unless he's a complete flop and can't grasp the offense or simply can't play at this level, we've got a future asset or at worst a career backup who will have years of experience running our system. I would have rather seen another 'need' player there but ultimately, I'm fine with the pick.


Would have much rather seen a quality player taken that would have filled a OL or DL position. Possibly a Nose Tackle prospect that maybe a started in a year or 2.

Well he believes he's suppose to be here so yes.

“I’m going to work as hard as I can,” Cousins said. “There are a lot of things I can’t control, like where I get drafted. I’m just excited to be part of the NFL. At the end of the day, I believe God is in control of my future, and this is where I believe he wants me at this time.”

Given how some of the players they drafted had a pretty fluid draft stock I doubt they really missed out on anyone they wanted. Maybe a few but none where their whole draft was thrown off. As some of the beat writers said when the Redskins were picking in the third round, there were a lot of players they liked and trading down wasn't an issue.
