2012 Redskins Draft Day Thread: Round 1

[12thMan]

I guess this is somewhat anticlimatic, but I do look forward to all the picks following RGIII. What an awesome day to be a Redskins fan. Perhaps the first franchise QB we've had since Sonny.


Ladies and gentlemen, with the number two pick in this year's NFL Draft, the Washington Redskins pick Baylor QB and Heisman Trophy Winner Robert Griffin III.

I haven't been this excited for a drafted QB since Heath Shuler....I hope the result is not the same

You weren't apart of that draft were you?

Anyone else nervous??? I keep having a recurring nightmare:

"With the 2nd overall pick the Washington Redskins select Justin Blackmon"

I know I suffer from Post Cerratic Stress Disorder but can someone calm me down and tell me I'm crazy... please.

Yeah I can see the Commish changing are pick based on the cap debate.

If you really have any concern, yes you're nuts.

Ha! One of my colleagues pokes his head in my office and says "Blackmon" and I chucked a pen at him...

I second this. I wasn't as immersed when we drafted Howard or Shuler who I think are the only players remotely comparable so for me this is the biggest draft moment ever.

was just discussing this with a friend and I brought up that Tannehill might've given me the feeling that we had another Shuler, not in comparison of QB skillsets, just production

I thiiiiiiiiiiiink we've got a good one here

RG3

The 3 stands for the amount of super bowl wins he gets in DC.

You meant consecutive SUPER BOWL WINS.

You can drop the word "Perhaps" in the above.

I believe that the last time the Redskins DRAFTED a franchise QB, it would have been Sammy Baugh back in the 1930s.

Remember, they acquired Jurgensen in a trade with the Eagles for "Stormin' Norman" Snead.

True that. But I didn't use the word "draft". Point remains though
