I'd give them a used Q-tip, A big Gulp-a Pak of slim jims and burger from 7-11

I was gonna say that the used Q-tip is just gross, but then I read to the end and I realized that the grossest thing you listed is the burger from 7-11...

I know this is a dumb question but, blue font? Sorry it's the booze talking, and not AB.

Blue tinged with the colour for "so far disappointed in what the number 2 overall pick has brought us considering whats in front of him" tinged as well (red maybe so purple?)

Players progress at their own pace. It's not physical, it's mental. Instant gratification should not overrule long term development. Look at what Givens did as a rookie. Look at what Quick did. Who would you rather have on the field now? Patience is a virtue, my friend.

I get that, doesn't stop me from being disappointed though. If Joseph was a good player it would be easier to take, but the more I watch him the more disappointed I become that Robinson isn't out there.

I say Washington's Choice in a QB was the Correct one! When they picked Cousin's. (Their after-thought the same year they got RGIII!) Rams Win Trade!!!!!!

I'd totally have RGIII on my team as a press specialist. Guy can call a press conference like no other. QB? No thank you, QBs who struggle to do anything but run are a dime a dozen now. Used to be a rarity, but not anymore. You could get Pryor for nothing and have him run around blindly all day if you really wanted that. IMO, of course.

Should it what?

Disappoint me that we're not getting playing time out of a premium pick? Maybe, maybe not time will tell, although it's not a good thing that's for sure.

Disappoint me that the player keeping him out of the team is someone who makes Chris Williams look like a good OL? Hopefully, it's either that or don't care about the Rams anymore.

Lets not go that far. He's pretty much equally bad when compared to Williams.

Yes. Disappoint you that Robinson isn't on the field right now. I don't think it should. We knew he was raw.

I'd give a third for him. He has all the physical skills. He just needs to learn how to slide/avoid contact and go through his reads better. The thing that worries me the most about him are the injuries. We've been through that already. I'm not sure I'm ready to go through it again.
Exactly. I'd like a big and burley type qb that won't get broken.

I'd give up a 2nd.

Honestly... I would too.

I've been hard on Bob3, but he's more than a running QB as labeled here.

I believe he's got a tough road to prove he can stay healthy but I'm not counting him out.

If I were going to roll the dice on a oft-injured QB I'd just stay with Bradford. I think Davis has a better knowledge and command of his offense after two years than RGIII has of his. He still has a lot to prove as far as his passing game IMO
