Let me preface this by saying that I have absolutely no feelings about the Redskins. That being said, this article proves nothing. Yes, the Redskins have traded draft picks for players but what GM hasn't missed great players in the draft? Marques Colston was missed by every team in the league almost six times over!
ReplyDeleteSince Clinton Portis has been the team for the past few years, I would consider that trade a bargain.
The only notable bust in this entire list is Jason Campbell. They gave up way too much for a third string QB.
