I guess we know where RG3 is going to play his NFL football now.
In a blockbuster, pre NFL Draft deal, the St. Louis Rams will receive the Washington Redskins’ #6 overall pick, as well as the Redskins’ first-round picks in 2013 and 2014. The Rams will also receive Washington’s second-round pick this year in return for the second overall pick that the Redskins now will use on Robert Griffin III.
Did you hear that? It’s the sound of every mock draft out there undergoing massive change. Sorry Cleveland Browns, I guess you’re s.o.l.
The trade is all over the internets, but will not become official until the new league year starts on Tuesday.
