17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 (edited) see Redskins beat Reporter and Gruden leaker of info from yesterday http://sportsglory.com/nfl/jay-gruden-wants-redskins-to-trade-robert-griffin-iii/38207 Its being talked about and reported on ESPN'S web page today that the Skins head coach Gruden wants RG3 gone. It just not his style of Qb that fits his offense You can't really force a square peg into a round hole and thats why he wants him gone. When you read the questions in the mail bag. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2405097-redskins-mailbag-part-2 http://espn.go.com/blog/washington-redskins/post/_/id/16163/redskins-mailbag-part-2-65 The reporter speculates that it will take a QB coming back to the Skins to get a trade completed. I think Gruden really likes Colt Mccoy and I think he will win the job. It does not make sense to keep RG3 because he is going to walk anyways. The water is poisoned In Washington for RG3. He will want a fresh start so the Skins would be wise to move him while they can still get something for him before he leaves via free agency. If you read the tea leaves and can forecast the future my bet is they will trade RG3 and probably do it at the draft. My question is would you trade E.J Manual and a middle round draft pick for RG3. I know I would, I am really hoping this goes down. I do not see how the Skins can go through another year of Drama and have him be the back-up to Colt McCoy. I really think they are going to move RG3 and if the Bills can land him and get him some good coaching under Roman then we are ready for a Superbowl run. I am on record of fully supporting this move. I hope it happens. I can't wait for the draft to see all moves and trades. If the Rams and Eagles can swap QB'S why not the Bills and Skins, it would do both players good to get a restart on there careers. Edited March 22, 2015 by billsareback
Captain Hindsight Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Im not sure trading for a busted wheels, inaccurate, can't read a defense QB is better than keeping our own inaccurate QB and a draft pick Bob Griffen has been awful since he came back injury. AWFUL.
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 so why not roll the dice and give it a chance.
Gugny Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 No way this is true. Griffin is horrible. I can't see Whaley making a dumb move like this.

I see RG3 as the boom or bust guy that can get you over the top. You have to get lucky to land a franchise QB when you are not picking in the top 5. The Bills won't be picking there for quite some time. If RG is healthy and returns to form this team is a Super Bowl contender.
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 I respect your opinion but I disagree. RG3 just needs a offensive coach that knows how to use his talent. Roman is that guy he just fits his offense.
Kirby Jackson Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Im not sure trading for a busted wheels, inaccurate, can't read a defense QB is better than keeping our own inaccurate QB and a draft pick Bob Griffen has been awful since he came back injury. AWFUL. He certainly isn't inaccurate that is why he was so highly regarded coming out. When he was healthy he has always been incredibly accurate. There are certainly question marks with RG (health, attitude, work ethic) but the physical tools (again if healthy) are miles ahead of anyone on the Bills roster.
BuffaninATL Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 it's really not that difficult. It's MANUEL, not MANUAL
Quester74 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 If Washington WANTS to trade him.. why do we even toss in a draft pick to get it done?
FireChan Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 He certainly isn't inaccurate that is why he was so highly regarded coming out. When he was healthy he has always been incredibly accurate. There are certainly question marks with RG (health, attitude, work ethic) but the physical tools (again if healthy) are miles ahead of anyone on the Bills roster. And his best season has been better than any other QB's ceiling on the Bills.
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 I can site a few instances where a change a scenery for a QB is a good thing Daryle Lamonica Bills to Raiders, Vinny Testiverde Bucs to Jets, Steve Young Tampa to 49ers, Jim Plunket Pats to Raiders Note he was the number one pick in the draft, Brett Farve ATL to GB , Rich Gannon Chiefs to Raiders, Now you have Fowles and Bradford and Brees had to leave the Chargers to make room for Rivers.
Bangarang Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Was EJ's name even mentioned? No, which is why the thread title is misleading. From what I read, the article only speculates that RG3 could be traded. The OP speculates it could be for EJ. I wouldn't expect a simple player for player trade involving EJ and RG3.
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 I said I thought it would involve and mid range draft pick also. No E.J. was not mentioned but what it did say was that it would probably take a QB coming back to the Skins to make it happen.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I can site a few instances where a change a scenery for a QB is a good thing Daryle Lamonica Bills to Raiders, Vinny Testiverde Bucs to Jets, Steve Young Tampa to 49ers, Jim Plunket Pats to Raiders Note he was the number one pick in the draft, Brett Farve ATL to GB , Rich Gannon Chiefs to Raiders, Now you have Fowles and Bradford and Brees had to leave the Chargers to make room for Rivers. Ask yourself this did any of those players suffer an injury which took away a key element of their game? RG3 has not been the same since the playoff game against Seattle. He has looked timid and honestly very much like EJ. If you want to swap EJ for RG3, ok, i do not see any harm with that. But throwing in a pick is not necessary.
FireChan Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I said I thought it would involve and mid range draft pick also. No E.J. was not mentioned but what it did say was that it would probably take a QB coming back to the Skins to make it happen. It's a misleading title. What makes you think it would be EJ besides the fact that he plays QB?
Magox Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I doubt it would happen, but if given the opportunity, you pull the trigger without hesitation.
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 If you have to throw in a Mid range pick to get it done why not, its a chance to tip the scales of this teams future. I do know one thing this guy fits Romans offense to a tee.
NoSaint Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 I said I thought it would involve and mid range draft pick also. No E.J. was not mentioned but what it did say was that it would probably take a QB coming back to the Skins to make it happen. It took quite a bit of reading to realize it was completely your speculation beyond espn saying they might like a qb in exchange if they might trade rg3
17 Josh Allen Posted March 22, 2015 Author Posted March 22, 2015 Yes I was speculating that the QB would be E.J. its no secret that Gruden wants him gone and that RG3 will become a free agent and he will leave. He will not sit behind Colt McCoy and this in it's self is a problem. Not to mention that Gruden's offense is not designed for the type of QB that RG3 is. So he will get moved or Gruden will get fired they can not co-exsit. it does not take a rocket scientist to see that this will come to a head and that will probably happen at the NFL draft.
