It's almost like we have to play him and see if he can showcase some talent for trade value otherwise we are either stuck with him or have to release him. Have you ever seen a quarterback with such little value have as much supporters as Haskins? He's treated like a Lamar Jackson or Patrick Mahomes by the media and his fans.

ggarriso Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Wow!!! Not even able to follow basic health policies when the coach of the team is in the highest risk category for a bad outcome. This guy is a sack of trash. To all of you who viciously attacked those of us who were simply prophets and truth tellers about Simba (lack of) character, demeanor, and prospects - shame, I hope you realize how embarrassing that all was now. I had just assumed his inaccuracy was him trying to make sure the WR's were socially distanced from the field; guess he was just bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cut him today and don’t look back. Way too much a distraction for a player who doesn’t even dress on game day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stone Cold Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Yup. If we’re truly changing culture...send him packing. He started the season a C...he played his way to the bench and showed his own butt out the door...easy call at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Not a great move, but I wouldn’t pile on too much with that one. It’s not a good move overall but don’t bite too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooleyfan1993 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Schefter tweeted that haskins and the family friend didn’t have any contact a the hotel, he just made a reservation. So that’s a bit better, but still not smart. If the team doesn’t allow it, don’t do it. Simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksun247 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 At what point do we blame Haskins? He knows the rules. Doesn't matter if they didn't meet up. He made the reservation knowing it was against the rules. Selfish, Stupidity or both? Almost as bad as the Seahawks guy sneaking in a lady dressed in Seahawks gear. I am all for a trade. Any draft pick is fine. Or simply cut him. No more distractions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure everyone here is blaming haskins, which is the right thing to do. And i also said in my post that yes, he knows the rules and shouldn’t have done it, all i said was they didn’t have any contact, which isn’t AS bad, but it’s still not a good look AT ALL. so, again, who here isn’t blaming him for this?

evmiii Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 I suspect there is a bunch we don’t know about DH and his relationship with Ron and the team. If the relationship is not beyond repair and they see any potential for improvement they might as well keep him and see what develops since he has no apparent trade value. If the damage is irreparable I expect, barring injury, he will remain inactive through the season and be released this offseason. I was hopeful when we drafted him that he would mature and come in with the right attitude and would help the team down the road (not a big fan of drafting him), but this doesn’t appear to be the case. I do strongly believe that you don’t throw good money after bad so once the decision is made you move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Stuff we don’t know about is going to come out regarding Haskins and the team after he leaves here and some people will still just say they are “leaks” meant to throw dirt on him on the way out even though they’re almost always true in retrospect lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 "No, because Dwayne got all the reps for 11 weeks with the first unit," Rivera told ABC 7 News. "It gave me 11 weeks to evaluate him, and to look at him. And as I said, I made my decision based on what I saw. And that was a young man that's still raw, that still has a lot of work to do." Rivera goes on to emphasize that on a roster with 53 other players, he can't just worry about one player's development during the course of a long season -- even a player as important to the franchise as Haskins. "Now, I could let him continue to play," Rivera said. "But what about the other 52 guys? What about those guys? So this year was just to develop one player? I can't do that to the other guys.

SkinFanInMinn Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 The real question is: how do you come up with a fine amount of $4,833? Why not $4,800, $4,850 or even just round up to $5,000? Heck, why not $4,833.33 if you’re going to be like that? And he has to pay with exact change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guaranteed it will happen. The team invested one of its most valuable resources available to it in a first round pick in him. The super bowl winning QB and NFL MVP permitted him to wear his unofficially retired number. Yet all he did was squander every opportunity. Refused to commit to his craft and basically completely failed. Look at how Terry McLaurin handled the same environment. Haskins is simply a bust. It’s not even complicated. There aren’t layers to the story. More info will come to light but the underlying truth is he is basically a smug entitled brat who believes he has arrived and wants all the accolades without putting in the requisite work.

TradeTheBeal! Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 If Dwayne is to actually have a successful NFL career, he will have Rivera to thank for helping to break him of his bad habits/immaturity. This is a big moment for the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, he went and did something else that raises serious questions about his maturity and desire to be a professional within a few weeks of the message being sent.

IrepDC Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Maybe we can do this again with this Mertz kid from Wisconsin in a few years? Whoever is up next, we have to address the team issues we have with developing a QB. I see us get riled up like this running guys out of town every year as if trashing those players fixes our team. Lol once the latest QB is gone, the conversation will go right back to what, y'all think are Haskins fans, football fans are saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not an All Pro, but I'd say he's had a decent career so far. RG3 you have a point. Guy was a primadona who never had the talent or work ethic to be a consistent starter.

Griffin was injured, and unwilling to adapt his game afterwards. Cousins frankly hit his ceiling here, with McVay and co. No one else is even worth mentioning. I dont think its an issue of development. We just suck at evaluating that position.
