The NFL Draft is still a week away but that hasn't stopped the Washington Redskins from showing quarterback Robert Griffin III some love. Washington traded with the St. Louis Rams for the number two overall pick in this seasons NFL Draft and have made it clear they like Baylor's Heisman winning quarterback Robert Griffin III. Griffin has already spent time going over the Redskins playbook with offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan in Waco, Texas.  He signed autographs on Redskins memorabilia for fans in Washington, and was given the ultimate treatment on his trip to the capitol. Don Banks of SI.com asked Griffin if he would be disappointment if the Redskins didn't draft him at the No. 2 spot.  Here is what he said: "I don't know how I'd feel about that, because I've continually said no matter where I go I'll be happy and excited,'' Griffin said.

Via Larry Brown Sports  |  April 20, 2012
Hopefully once word gets around that DeAngelo Hall and Alex Morgan were chatting back and forth on Twitter, everyone calls it flirting. That way we can see if Hall gets all worked up about it like Evan Longoria did that time when he and Morgan were chatting and everyone said he was trying to pick her up. It’s just more fun when that happens. Anyway, Hall recently tweeted back...

Cowboys and Redskins to have hearing in May

RG3 vs. Andrew Luck hype kicks into high gear. Are Redskins fans going overboard?

Via Redskins Hog Heaven  |  April 18, 2012
Sports fans follow teams, but they relate to players. I know this because hits to Hog Heaven are unfailingly higher when a player leads a headline than when the topic is about the team. We saw our biggest hits this month from stories about Robert Griffin III and London Fletcher than when we wrote about the schedule or defense. Big media knows that lesson, so it's no surprise...

The NFL has asked an arbitrator to dismiss the challenge by the Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys to salary cap reductions imposed by the league, according to a person with knowledge of the case.

Redskins schedule breakdown and predictions

Via 60 Max Power O  |  April 19, 2012
The first installment of the 2012 schedule breakdown, as promised, is the Redskins. The NFL pundits came out today and said Washington has the 6th easiest schedule for 2012, but I don't see it that way.
