And they still wont win shite without a quarterback. You make the moves you have to make to get a franchise quarterback. If RGIII plays up to his abilities, Washington will win that trade.

I mean, how can you say a team was trade raped when they sucked before and ended up making the playoffs because of that trade? Meanwhile, the other team hasn't exactly set the league on fire. There is still plenty of time to evaluate the trade and I do like the haul the Rams got, butt if it doesn't lead to more wins then it isn't a trade rape.

You do realize that the Rams have tp play San Fran, Seattle, and Az twice each year.

NFC East has been very down the past few years

Rams gotta win a few SBs to make that comparison, huh? Or at least one, I would think.

It's crazy that they got so much for RGIII, and they made great picks, but you can't say for certain that they got the better end of the deal. It just goes to show you how important a dynamic and incredibly talented quarterback is.

Bradford was supposed to be that big time QB. He was never the same after that BYU game.

FWIW, its Rokevious WATKINS. Hard to take Schefty seriously when he messes up names like that. Also, Watkins is no longer in St. Louis, he was released and picked up by KC.

Compelling argument. The haul is one thing but if it doesn't convert to wins then it means nothing.

So a starting...
DB - Probowl potential (Jenkins)
DT - Probowl potential (Brockers)
OT - Probowl potential (Robinson)
LB - Probowl potential (Ogletree)
WR
RB1 - Probowl potential (Stacy)
RB2

for

an injury proned yet very talented QB who hasnt done anything in his career yet means nothing?

If we arent talking finances and profit from the RGIII brand that Wash receives and only consider roster and overall team talent, you think Washington wouldnt rather an upgrade at all of those positions along with Sam Bradford instead of what RGIII has done so far?

BTW, the Rams defense will be absolutely loaded for years to come. Holy shite will that defensive line put the fear in QB's.

They wouldn't have drafted rg3 anyway.

Also your putting pro bowl potential, let me put bust potential up there too since you think they are all future pro bowlers.

And rg3 took them to the playoffs immediately as a rookie. He had a sophomore slump after an ACL injury, not everyone can come back like Peterson did. Rg3 was pushed back too soon, we'll see how he is this year.

You're judgement is too damn harsh, and I'm a huge, lifelong Cowboys fan. I hate tge skins and hate rg3.

I think tge Rams did well with the trade and come out ahead thus far, but he's right, how many wins has it gotten them. They were still last in their division, just like the skins last year.
