Mike Shanahan will embrace Robert Griffin III when he becomes the team's quarterback after Washington selects him with the second overall pick on Thursday night. Shanahan joked that he won't hold it against Griffin "just because he's got a lot of charisma and I don't." "He's a natural leader. ... You want guys to lead your football team," the coach said. "Everybody's got their own way of doing things. Some guys are a little bit more serious. You've got to be yourself." The Redskins have invested a lot of time getting to know Griffin. "He's got everything that we look for," Shanahan said, "and I'm looking forward to working with him."
