"When I think back about when the Broncos got John Elway, I don't think anybody looks back and says, 'Hey, did we overpay?' To get a guy like that doesn't happen very often. So to get a guy that you feel is a franchise quarterback, I think you've really upped your organization over the long term."

The Redskins' draft in 2011 largely paid dividends, with significant contributions from most of their picks. Roy Helu (top left/Preston Keres/Special to The Washington Times) set a franchise rookie record with three straight 100-yard games.; linebacker Ryan Kerrigan (top right/Andrew Harnik/The WashingtonTimes) returned an interception for a touchdown against the Giants in the opener; Jarvis Jenkins (bottom left/(Preston Keres/Special to The Washington Times) tore an ACL in the preseason but figures prominently in their plans and running back Evan Royster (bottom right/Preston Keres/Special to The Washington Times) was a workhorse down the stretch.
