Someone here said to get him "at any cost". I got off the train LONG before we got to "any cost". Let's think about what "any cost" means:

First round picks in 2012, 13, 14 - - plus - -
Second round picks in 2012, 13, 14 - - plus - -
Orakpo, Kerrigan AND Helu.

Or maybe the Skins should bid even higher if necessary...?

Robert Griffin III will likely be a very good QB in the NFL and possibly a multi-time Pro Bowl player. But it is the cost of trading up that has to be weighed here because the Washington Redskins are not merely one player away from "greatness".
