Baugh-Was the face of the franchise as it moved to DC plus basically invented forward pass

Mitchell (Bobby not Brian)-Helped the Redskins racially integrate in a time when DC was still a southern town.

Gibbs-Laid the foundation for hard nose football, work ethic and first Super Bowl

Allen- After not making the playoffs since 1945 took the team to the playoffs in 5 of 7 years and pretty much integral in the Dallass-Skins rivalry.

Hmm only two players? Probably not the best Rushmore. I tried to stick with the idea of Mt. Rushmore and choosing individuals that represented the most important events in team history.
