we definitely need adrenaline rush pumped into the city. >> the heisman trophy is coming to town. >> redskins confirm the team is now in position to finally land that franchise quarterback. >> what has happened here, you know, the redskins did not wait and just decide what they are going to do later. they made a commitment. they made a bold move. >> this is 9news now. >> hello, everybody. i'm bruce johnson and thanks for joining us this saturday night. it's never a dull offseason for the redskins, but tonight is not somebody else's star player who is coming here. fans, former players, skins management, they are all reacting to news that the team traded up to draft its first franchise quarterback since who?

who was the last franchise quarterback? >> you have to go way back into the archives. everybody knew the number two position was key to this year's draft. the rams had it. many teams wanted it in order for the redskins to leap up to get it, they had to make a bold move. they made one. today, general manager, bruce allen, confirming what we already knew. washington mortgaged a lot to get that number two pick. and one would assume they are going to use it to obtain the services of that guy right there. robert griffin iii. heisman trophy winner. tonight, during a charity event downtown, allen and other former redskins chiming in on the move. why did they do it? did they give up too much? all of those subjects were on the table. >> i want to remind everyone we have the second pick of the draft and clearly we fell in love with two players and we believe one of those players will be a great risk. we understand it was a heavy

price. when you bought your home, you want to pay less, too, but you like your home once you live in it. so we're very comfortable. >> the redskins did not wait and just decide what they are going to do later. they made a commitment. they made a bold move and i think at the end of the day, rg2, 3, 4, 5, whoever he is. no, rg3 is the guy. >> it's been tough. i feel for our fans and in many ways, that we haven't been successful. and we are trying to get it right and i think we made a big step. >> strong words by general manager, bruce allen. we are just getting started. coming up in sports, i'm joined by grant paulson. we're going to discuss, was the price tag too steep in and is peyton manning still an option here in d.c.? all that and the caps and the wizards and d.c. united coming up in sports. i like that.

we're trying to get it right. high risk, high reward. here's what the fans are saying tonight about the team's move to acquire rg3. ken hit the streets to gauge the pulse in the city. >> reporter: there's a new loud noise being heard on washington's bustling streets and it sounds like this. >> rg3. rg3. rg3. >> we need him bad. we need a quarterback. >> no doubt about it. everywhere you look, washington is buzzing with the almost locked in chance of heisman trophy winner, robert griffin iii coming to the redskins. >> we have not had a great quarterback like that as long as i can remember. this guy is disciplined, intelligent, physical, articulate, he's the whole package. >> it's been more than a decade since the redskins had anything to brag about. they hope rg3 will be the break they and the team so desperately need.

from ben's chili bowl to the neighborhood sports bar and barber shop, everyone is just -- >> happy that he is coming to town. >> clearly there is no shortage of excitement in washington over the prospects of rg3 coming to town. you'll also find those who are skeptical about the possibility. >> if this doesn't work out, the next few years are going to be tougher. >> it's not going to be the magic pill. >> most of the skeptics are critical of what the redskins traded. >> to give three years straight first round picks and a second in this one, i think it might have been too much. >> despite those sentiments, there's no denying washington has just been pumped with a new kind of energy that has been missing here for years. >> rg3, baby. the heisman trophy is coming to town. >> at a news conference earlier today, redskins general manager would not specify by name who the team is interested in. he would only say right now

they are in love with two specific players. dave owens and the sports team will have more coming up later in this newscast. for now, we're in chinatown, 9news now. >> more envelopes had white powder showed up in washington today. this is federal authorities continue to investigate a man who they believe sent 100 threatening letters this week. armando trull has the latest developments. >> there was another white powder scare in washington, d.c. saturday afternoon. this time it happened in the 1600 block of i street northwest. it's a high-rise office building that contains a restaurant on the main floor as well as offices for the motion pictures association of america. as in past incidents, crews swept the building looking for dangerous substances, but none were found. the latest incident came one day after u.s. capital police announced they had arrested 39- year-old christopher lee carlson for allegedly sending out 100 envelopes containing

white powder to members of congress and media organizations. >> they told me to stay inside and next thing i hear is bang, bang, bang. and boom. >> carlson is described in court documents as being from the portland, vancouver, washington area. all the letters were postmarked in portland. none of them contain any toxic substances. the letters said there is a 10% chance that you have just been exposed to a lethal pathogen. >> charged with sending letters and threatening to use a biological weapon. >> john boehner as the victim. the second count names barbra as the victim. at this point, it's not clear if carlson has been linked to the white powder scares in the district that have targeted two elementary schools, the epa, and several businesses this past week. in washington, armando trull,
