Looks like Griffin will set back the Redskins a couple of seasons as they gave up a boat load of draft picks to move up.

I could give a hoot less about the Redskins problems. I want to know what the Saints are going to do about getting some Defensive Backs (Safety and Cornerbacks). The ones they have Suck.

I would dump Gruden, if he can’t teach, coach and motivate such a talent as RG-3, he proves himself unable to do his job. I am a Seattle fan, and love RW, but would rather have an unproven talent like him on my roster, than anybody but Luck or Russell Wilson.

I like RG3 and patience is needed to develop him. He’s been hurt and that has interrupted his progress. As for backup QB Colt McCoy he has a lot of upside and some starting NFL experience under his belt. He deserves another shot to start—maybe NY Jets who have drecks at QB now.

Looks like Andrew Luck was the better draft pick!! Can I Que up the “I told you so” vibe Rush was so right in that the media sooo wants an AA QB to succeed that nothing else matters.

I watched RG3 a lot when he was a rookie, and I really liked how well he performed in the pocket, as well as his ability to run when forced out of the pocket. He seemed like an unusually gifted talent who had both qualities. And what an arm, a rocket! Then the injury, and he has not played the same since. He plays like someone who lost his mojo and is looking to get it back. I think that rookie year RG3 is still in there somewhere, and I am surprised that Gruden would give up on him so quickly instead of trying to bring it out. You don't have to speculate on the things he could do for the team if he developed. All you have to do is go back to the tape.

I'd like to see him on the Eagles or 49ers if the Redskins let him go. I would also like to see Belichick take a shot at him. If Brady retires in a few years, he'd be the age Steve Young was when he took over for Montana. That is a good analogy.

I think the answer is simple: let RG III go to a coach that can really take full advantage of his quarterback skills. Can you imagine what kind of player RG III could be playing under Chip Kelly at the Philadelphia Eagles? Kelly would not only improve RG III’s ability to run as the situation demanded, but also revive the passing skills RG III clearly demonstrated during his last year at Baylor.
