Redskins Draft Pick

The Redskins traded their 6th pick, two future first rounders, and this year's second round pick for one draft pick.  A lot of people keep telling me the Skins are nuts for trading so many picks for just one.  Their case is that the pick could easily be a bust and that Robert Griffin III will just end up being another mistake under the watch of much hated owner Daniel Snyder.  I do understand their logic and with the Skins' recent years of unsuccessful teams, picks, coaches, coordinators and of course arguably the worst owner in the NFL as of today.  But, the Redskins haven't ever drafted a proven quarterback with this much potential and skills so early in the first round of the NFL draft in the past 20 years.  Griffin's complete arsenal consists of a powerful and accurate arm along with an impressive burst of speed outside the pocket.  With a new coach and an abundance of potential talent, Griffin could grow up really fast under Coach Mike Shannahan.  The Skins signed stand out Wide Reciever, Pierre Garcon, who could prove a reliable target for Griffin, and allow wideouts, Santana Moss and Anthony Armstrong to thrive in a less compressed aerial attack.  The offensive line is a work in progress but their are bright spots and Trent Williams is one of them at Left Tackle.  The Running Back attack of Roy Helu, Ryan Torrain, and Tim Hightower should also provide Griffin relief during his learning curve in D.C. over the next couple of years.
