No. This is sounding like a franchise that is fully prepared. If RG3 stays healthy and is a stud like we expect him to do and tears it up, then we'll trade Cousin for more than the 4th round pick we used. We drafted for value. Plain and Simple.
Let me ask this question. Why did the Patriots take Mallot last year when they had Brady at starter and also have Hoyer as the #2. Did that create controversy? No. They draft value players |

Did the colts draft another QB after andrew luck?....or is it because griffin fits the stereotype of Qbs that run? Is that why?... |

dropping in from the NFC North to note that, aside from the whole "2 quarterbacks" thing (which may or may not end up turning out well, who really knows at this point) the redskins seem to be hitting this draft out of the friggin park. |
oh you cherry picked across the nation and found that little comment that you delivered like a stork here? good for you. it mustba been quite an effort working through hundreds of others who are laughing at Washington right now. one giants fan just said on behalf of his organization I want to thank the redskins for being what they are.

yeah Im aware wash beat ny twice last year. get over your one accomplishment already. I also know who won the super bowl and who was 5-11) |

I think you're jumping the gun a little bit. He's a late 6th rounder. |
Here was the Texans O line starters for 2011. One 6th rounder who was sought after in FA in 2012 and one UDFA who was also sought after in FA this year. The make up of the majority of O lines in the NFL have late round and UDFAs. I don't think that Frank is jumping the gun. Being a late rounder, or not being drafted at all, for an O lineman has not been a problem in developing into a star.
Texans 2011 Starters
Myers - 6th round 2005; Starter 2007
Smith - Free Agent 2010(No Big Splash here); Starter 2010
Brisiel - UDFA 2007; Starter 2008
Winston - 3rd round 2006; Starter 2007
Brown - 1st round 2008; Starter 2008 .

Drafting Cousins was a good value move, it could also mean the time Kyle spent with him told them that he's not that far off and another Rookie at QB won't take away from his development

You keep ssaying that like you're waiting on permission.... but then you don't and ask anyway. If you're not careful you might start a conversation.

Teams draft rookie QBs all the time, some are drafted to step right in as starters.... (Eli, his big bro, Brees, Cam, Luck, Weeden, and Big Ben) others are drafted to develop into starters but something forces a teams hand... (Ponder, Gabby, and Dalton). Then you have those that are drafted to sit and they sit....(Brady, Rogers, and others)
Drafting QBs create options. Drafting a QB when you need a QB creates a solution.... Drafting more than one equals solutions with options.
One option won't be reacting if option A fails, because there is a plan in place with a plan A1 instaed of looking for a Plan B. Like the Jags will be doing very soon, as well as the Browns if Weeden turns out to be a better baseball player than QB |

| I know the pukes moving up to get Claiborne was a good move but why did they get an A and us a B? I think its to early to tell but we had more picks and added a lot of competition at areas of need. |

Franky, I don't get this at all... The Cowboys are not in decent (not great) shape at corner... but their Safety situation is horrendous... a selection of Barron would have been a home run, and would have been a very astute response to both Vick and Griffin, whom they must deal with twice each per year. |
