Redskins Recon: The Big Trade Part 1-NFCE Reaction

[Burgundy Burner]

The Gathering of Griffin?

No, no, no! That is asking for a hex. A plague of locusts. Bad karma. The ghost of Vinny. The curse of Norv, Heath, Deion, and Zorn. Each one of those threads brought nothing but horrible trouble.

The last one was "The House of Haynesworth" and it was the culmination of such disasters. Whoever started that thread is loose cannon! Seriously!

Didn't want to start a new thread for this and it's not a fan website, but here is another NFCE assertion now that it appears that RG3 is coming here.

I thought the Redskins overpaid for the pick but comparing Griffin (who I think will be successful) with Heath Shuler coming into the NFL evidently is too young to have seen Shuler throw the ball in college or the pros.

Shuler lacked basic accuracy on the bread and butter throws you have to be able to make.

I know one thing about the East.

Jerry jones loves pure athletes.

Of the three other teams in the division Dallas I bet is the one where this deal is most feared for what Griffin could become in DC.

NY has won two Super Bowls in the past five years, I don't think they are that concerned yet.

But Dallas with a soon to be 33 year old qb who has failed in several big games?

They have to wonder.

El, you do realize BR is a site anyone can write for, correct? Not to bust on the writer of that "article" or anything, but here's his bio:

If I'd read that piece on a Cowboys message board I'd have figured it was written by a Skins fans trolling for a bite.

I was just wondering has anyone heard what RGIII's reaction of the Skins trading up to the 2nd pick with the chance to draft him, and he becoming a redskin ?

I was referring to a fan message board. Wrong choice of words.

Regardless, it was a dig at the Cowboys and that almost always brings a smile to my face.
