[Editor's Note: Officially, no Redskins official is talking on the record about Robert Griffin III or a potential trade, so any rumors and reports – in any publication – are speculation at this point.]
This just in: Baylor prospect Robert Griffin III is an exciting playmaker at quarterback, and the Redskins could possibly have interest in drafting him.
Last season, Redskins quarterbacks combined for 14th in the NFL in total passing yards and 26th in aerial scoring. They threw for 3,773 yards, 19 touchdowns and 24 interceptions, and a rating of 73.3 yards.
For an unfair comparison, Griffin threw for 4,293 yards, 37 touchdowns and six interceptions. He also rushed for another 699 yards and 10 touchdowns, deep in the heart of Texas.
To be clear, this is not groundbreaking stuff. The Redskins are, and should be interested in any player that can help them upgrade their roster. A player of Griffin’s caliber is going to attract attention from all corners of the league, and the main question remaining is who will give up the most to acquire his talent?
