Why would you insult every poster at TheRX with such a stupid question. What is the thread count down for the day.
yeah 48hrs after getting RG111 and trading a 2nd rd this year and the next 2 1st rounders they realize how stupid they were and drafted a kid with a weak arm and runs the 40 in 4.8.

Source: Redskins release John Beck

</cite>The Washington Redskins completed their quarterback overhaul Saturday, releasing quarterback John Beck, a team source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Beck was winless in three starts for the Redskins in 2011. The former second-round pick finished the season with 858 yards on 80 of 132 passing and had just two passing touchdowns to go with four interceptions.
Beck's release comes after Washington drafted quarterback Kirk Cousins out of Michigan State during Saturday's fourth round. The Redskins also introduced No. 2 overall pick Robert Griffin III later in the afternoon.
The talented Cousins won 27 games as a three-year starter and with the pick coach Mike Shanahan may have created the kind of quarterback controversy that has often enveloped the Redskins
Cousins said during a conference call even he was a little surprised to be picked by Washington.
"I was trying to forecast which teams would be looking at a quarterback and I didn't see the Redskins thinking along those lines, but coach Shanahan's words to me were that he couldn't pass me up," Cousins said.
Griffin said he and Cousins had a long-distance relationship in college. It will be up close and personal in Washington. The Redskins gave up three first-round picks and a second-round selection to take Griffin.
Washington was the first team to select two quarterbacks in the first four rounds since Green Bay in 1989. The last time the Redskins chose a quarterback in the top 10 before Griffin was in 1994 when they took Heath Shuler. He eventually was beaten out by Gus Frerotte, whom the Redskins took in the seventh round
Much is expected from RG3.
The Redskins have started 21 quarterbacks over the past 19 seasons. But Griffin seems comfortable with the expectations.
He said Saturday he's going to "try not to take the weight of the last 20 years on my shoulders." However, Griffin is well aware of the history and problems the Redskins have had at the position, saying, "They drafted me to be the solution ... and I plan to be that solution."
Griffin told NFL.com on Saturday that he and offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan have already started discussing ways to use Griffin's unique skillset.
"I have the playbook, and I'm going to dive into it on the flight," Griffin told NFL Network. " ... They're going to use me in many ways, and they're going to give me a lot of input in the offense."
Griffin said he won't try to bully the team's veterans with his new-found stature, instead choosing to lead by example.
"You just go in and show them," he told NFL.com. "You can't come in as a top pick and say, 'Hey, this is my team, we're going to do things my way.' "
LMAO yes ESPN is filled with retards or have you not watched thier coverage. Maybe you should of posted this stupid article and said how dumb this makes ESPN look. But thats not what you did.
I didn't even have to read the article to know it was stupid.
Yeah 3 #1's and a #2 and they think Cousins can press him. LOL How stupid.
Did you see the stupid bit that ESPN did of what happens in the war room. LOL they even had a phone and had it ring. How dumb
Agreed, the owner is a disaster. RGIII better be the second coming of Cam Newon ASAP or the 'Skins may not see another playoff game for 5-7 years at a minimum. I don't know if Shanahan is even calling the shots seing he only has a couple of years left on his contract. No way is this team going to win before Shanhan leaves or gets run out of town. The team, which used to be considered a good organization with multiple titles, has become a laughing stock of the league since Snyder took over.
