cantankerous Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) http://profootballta...-for-no-2-pick/ Glazer says that the teams will swap first-round picks in 2012, with St. Louis taking the No. 6 pick. The Rams also get two future first-round picks and additional selections, one of which is believed to be a second-rounder. (2) #1's (1) #2 and at least another pick. Damn!

Chandler#81 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Wow! 2-1sts AND a second?!? There goes Washingtons' future. They have to hope RGIII can do it all by himself.Also gives serious credence to Manning in at Denver and Tebow out.

OUCH!.... Sure glad it wasn't us.
boyst Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 If he puts up Cam Newtons numbers as a rookie will he be worth it?

BuffaloRebound Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 That's crazy. Talk about a panic move. Even if it pans out for Skins, the value of the pick for the Rams was only going to decrease once Manning and Flynn got signed.
DanInUticaTampa Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 3 #1's 2 #2's per shefter tweet. Wow. And ppl here thought 2 first rounders would get the job done. Yeah right. We would have had to give up 4 first rounders probably. Jesus
Captain Hindsight Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Wow. And ppl here thought 2 first rounders would get the job done. Yeah right. We would have had to give up 4 first rounders probably. Jesus Ya but he's a once in a generation player at least until next season! How could we not trade 4 starters for this years once in a generation player!
Bronc24 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I admire their balls to get it done. Wish we had some.
papazoid Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 TOTALLY WORTH IT !!!.....good move washington they only gave up unproven draft picks.....they still have that salary cap space to spend on proven free agents.
DanInUticaTampa Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 If it was just 2 first rounders it would be one thing. But 3 first rounders plus more? Hell no. I would make that trade for Aaron rodgers or maybe drew brees, but not for a player who never took an nfl snap.
Doc Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 TOTALLY WORTH IT !!!.....good move washington they only gave up unproven draft picks..... for an unproven draft pick.
Peter Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 I like RGIII. He might be great. Nevertheless, that is a lot to give up for one guy. I am not surprised it is the Redskins making this deal.
Rico Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Congrats to the Redskins, the NFC East will continue to be must-see TV. Agree that it was an awful lot to give up, but they owed their fanbase something after a year of Beck/Grossman. Congrats to the Rams too, nice haul.
truth on hold Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 (edited) 3 #1's 2 #2's per shefter tweet. ESPN says one #2 (this years) http://m.espn.go.com/nfl/story?storyId=7668243 Sweet trade for rams. They'll get a top WR at #6 overall and add 38th overall pick this year. The 13' and 14' # 1's from Skins they can either sit on or trade for something of value now too. WOW Edited March 10, 2012 by Joe_the_6_pack
BillsVet Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 Now maybe Tebow will come to Buffalo. Well, season ticket sales will most likely be taking another hit after last year. They signed TO after RW ordered Brandon, so it's not out of the question. That goes especially for Tebow, who RW wanted and then came out and said he didn't. Congrats to the Redskins, the NFC East will continue to be must-see TV. Agree that it was an awful lot to give up, but they owed their fanbase something after a year of Beck/Grossman. Congrats to the Rams too, nice haul. Shanahan takes a lot of risks and needs significant resources to be successful and never would get that here with the club to be sold mentality. I just wish the Bills would reward their fan base by signing a big name UFA in lieu of waiting for Buddy's 4 year plan after a then 10 year hiatus from the playoffs. We'll see when the clock hits 4PM on 3/13.
