That's the trade idea could be some -- tonight we'll see any NFL draft which begins -- Andrew block -- -- -- number one Robert Griffin the third expected to go number to.

And our question is which one.

-- -- investor money with long term if you had a team well I actually had a chance to speak with.

-- G three's on the cover of E.

A.

SPORTS is NCAA thirteen video game this year asked him why he would make.

A good investment.

Whenever you make an investment especially long term investment you want it come back.

In multiply.

And so if you make an investment in a guy like Robert Griffin the third.

It'll definitely multiply.

Your money is gonna triple.

Quadrupled.

And you know you'll feel good about it ten years down the road to say you know -- a really good investment with that that player right there.

And it'll be a lot of fun satellite that -- like apple before Steve Jobs took office and let.

-- certain -- here's the thing when we talk about.

What is a good investment we look at the over the wrist and the reward purity talked about the reward is the risk and a quarterback.

That may be runs more than other quarterbacks the idea that that quarterback is more likely to get hurt you think that's fair enough.

-- not -- it's fair because when you play football.

There's always a possibility you get hurt so when you talk about the risks on the investment.

I don't play the game.

-- -- if you play as if you're gonna get hurt you will get hurt.

So you play Smart I'm not gonna get hit by -- her lacquered box on the game probably Smart not get down myself gave on you got this and I'll slide.

But you know I'm not gonna play with me I'll play fearless.

And I'll go out and out -- be the best that I can be.

Thought about what what's that that -- you've been through a lot here obviously in all these players happen have you thought about what's the best way to evaluate your supplier.

Is it the fact that -- I'm you're that guy runs the fastest forty of any quarterback in history we know that and that's pretty impressive is it.

You know how you scored in some of these tests that they run pre draft or is it the game film and what's the best way to evaluate.

Robert -- the football player -- -- Robert Griffin the investment.

Yeah -- you know elected so people that if you -- just eliminate all my running room.

And say in this guy play quarterback if he had didn't have the ability to run so just follow up although the clips that -- filling in the pocket.

And then say what I think this -- -- quarterback if he wasn't mobile spent a statistical question or is it something you got to see.

And I think it's just I want people to say look what this -- be a quarterback without his running ability.

And I feel like I would be a -- -- prove that over the past two years not just this one year.

And the fact that I can't move a little bit.

Makes it the investment that much better.

We get perspective -- -- a good quarterback without a -- quarterback with the ability to.

Tad to run eleven odd but that said a lot of pressure on you at the same time because the Redskins presumably moving up to number two gave up a lot -- that -- -- -- up a lot of draft picks.

If you -- -- you're on the cover this video game with Barry Sanders is one of the all time -- -- great college player in just getting started.

You feel that pressure do you feel the pressure of an entire organization do you ever think about that.

You know I'll try not to you know I've always said and oppression of dominance and you want that restaurant you as a quarterback.

Because literally if there's no pressure garments can be made.

But if you're in big time games is going to be pressure on you and at the end of the day when you -- that you get that diamond -- so the way I look at -- it's excitement it's not high.

It's all excitement and you want people to be excited about what they're -- With that it's not you made the case by the way if -- -- stock I think a lot of people would be a buyer.

You care that you'll go number to that ever bother you the race number one number two with with -- Not doesn't bother me now you know at the beginning of the process I wanted to be number one and I still want to be number one.

But I'm number one for the loss in residence.

Throughout this day I wanna prove those cults that -- you should pick me you know everyone says that but they -- that answer was they're god I can't hold that against them I'm not going to.

I'm not gonna have a personal vendetta.

But it we have the -- on our scheduled.

Monopoly it's in the -- that game -- complex him on any -- again good luck with everything -- -- thank you.

A guy he'll be number two tonight -- And lifelong heartbroken Redskins man debt.

I'm thankful -- that he really impressive really impressive guy.

And I love seeing you next time no pressure no diamonds or something that he stole from me you know I was I would say that right.

Yeah did you miss a thing about -- -- -- moment.

I think -- loosen up -- NFL things in the hold.
