Former Redskins offensive tackle Chris Samuels was one of the best draft picks in the Dan Snyder era, a third overall pick who went on to make six Pro Bowls. Certainly  the Pro Bowl often is about popularity, but there’s little doubt Samuels had a solid career from 2000-2009.

As we wait for Robert Griffin III to sign his rookie contract, a lot of interested folks are saying that once Andrew Lucksigns or once more players drafted in the top eight in the draft sign, RG3’s deal will fall into line.
