This may be a little off-topic, but i was thinking that it's quite possible if we do somehow end up with a bad record this season we could potentially just trade down next year if there is a suitor. With the bigger QB class of next season we could see teams trying to grab one of the top QBs and if we already have ours (potentially) we could end up with a second in the end. I doubt the front office is that forward thinking, but in the end it could still be a possibility.

Probably to give credit where it was due and not to someone (Bruce) who probably had nothing to do with it

There’s just as little reason to think otherwise

i agree mostly. I would prefer to see Haskins come in mid season IF we aren't sitting there with a good record. However, if the man truly wins the competition in camp/preseason, let him get to work week 1 and learn that way as well. I don't necessarily think our QB's will be the issue next year. I have a feeling it may be the rest of the offense, mainly receivers, potentially RBs if we have any injuries.

Getting past some of the biased negativity, they aren’t far off on saying a lot that has been discussed here so I can’t be too mad at them.

From my understanding a lot of it has to do with his speed and his lack of separation from coverage.

How do you feel about his game speed? I know that’s one of his bigger knocks, but sometimes people just play faster than they actually are. I feel like that’s a pretty big deal to pair with Haskins’ game

I agree, though I’m sure most wont. I’d like to let him sit a full year. Give him time to get some learning in and another year to get some FAs and draft picks in.

That’s too bad I thought he would have been a good pairing with Haskins

I think a lot of it has to do with receivers taking time to develop and all of that. Teams probably feel it’s not the greatest investment for early picks?

Touché. I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and let his on and off the field actions speak for him

Hope that’s the case then. Still question his maturity

I suppose so. It just really rubbed me the wrong way. Maybe it was watching all the other picks so happy to be picked regardless and then I see our pick sulking. I really hope he works his ass off and proves the 14 teams who picked before us wrong, but until then he has at least one person who is skeptical of his personality and maturity.

I saw when he wouldn’t even wear the hat at first, just holding it in his hand. Saw his body language. Saw someone who clearly wasn’t pleased and the hosts on abc said the same thing “looks like opposite reactions while sweats all smiles and Haskins was not”.
