an injury that puts him out through 2016 that contract is meaningless.

That's correct.. If he gets cut there is no guaranteed money. My point is that having that contract gives him most of the power in this situation. If a team called and were willing to give two #1 picks, we couldn't do anything unless (a) that team would take the 16mil contract, which won't happen (b) RG3 would have to agree to a new deal before the trade or (c) the Redskins would have to agree to pay a portion of his 2016 contract, which would realistically be most or all of it to do a trade. So, in reality, RG3 has a lot of say in what happens here. The odds of getting a deal done that would get us trade value is slim unless it was a situation that the RG3 camp was interested in.
