Thats way to much to give up to move up in the draft, even if RG3 pans out they have handcuffed that franchise in a big way

CharityMike 03-09-2012 10:09 PM

WOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!! 3 1st rounders!! They have lost there minds!!

The Rams just got a lot better. The Redskins are smoking dried skoal.

3 First rounders for RGIII? Wow! I'm pretty sure they just set their team back another 10 years.

Then again, Daniel Snyder hasn't always made the best decisions when it comes to the well being of his team. Figures. :whatever:

It's nice when you have the luxury of the #2 pick but you actually already have a quarterback who isn't really all that bad -- Sam Bradford.

MatthewT 03-10-2012 01:37 AM

Wow, the Rams are now potentially in a great spot to build a great team. It does appear the Redskins way overpaid, but heck, they do need a QB in a bad way. I guess we shall see in the upcoming years how this one pans out.

I guess when they heard that Manning did not want to play there, they sold the farm for RG3. Talk about your all time dumb a** moves. Man....that franchise is toast, even if RG3 turns out to be a good pick.

Great news for Saints lore- this is now the worst draft pick trade
Ricky and Ditka now get the silver medal

CharityMike 03-10-2012 09:35 AM

Great teams are built through the draft. Dare I say, the Rams might be a postseason maintstay for awile.

Danno 03-10-2012 10:47 AM

Its not as bad as everyone thinks. Yes, they overpaid, but they had a ton of extra picks built up and they have 40 million in cap room.

It won't hurt them nearly as much as it appears on the surface.

Crusader 03-10-2012 12:15 PM

If RG3 pans out and is the fantastic player many people think he will be that is a smart move. look at our roster last year, we had Meachem and Ingram that was first round picks but not in any way spectacular players. Its more about finding the right guys than where you find them.

ScottF 03-10-2012 02:05 PM

Damn, I didn't realize they threw in a second rounder this year as well. Unreal.
nice work by the Rams, who could dominate a crappy divison for a long time

I don't know about dominate, but they should be able to compete with the 49ers in a couple of years
