re: Time to trade for RG3

Well, I know that he costs 3.3 million this year which hurts our cap if we trade for him.

And if he gets hurt behind our offensive line, as appears to be the case with Brees, the Saints would be on the hook for 16+ million next year.

And in the upside down world of NFL contracts, that move essentially ensured that he'd be benched or cut in 2015.

Here's why it works out that way: The $16.2 million for 2016 is not guaranteed -- unless the injury-prone RG3 gets injured. No injury, and the Redskins can cut him loose. Riding the bench, of course, is the best way to keep him healthy.

So yeah, trading for RG3 is a bad idea. If you're that hard up for RG3, why not wait until he gets cleared from his concussion and is possibly cut?
