So now that we know that Rosen is going to go to Miami for their 2nd round pick, we can discuss what we'd rather have had:

What we did: Haskins (15) and Sweat (26) with no 2nd rounder next year.

OR

What we could have done: Sweat (15), Rosen with our 2nd, and we keep our 2nd next year.


Personally, i'm happy with what we've done. The more I read about Rosen, the more I doubt he has the potential to be an elite QB. Haskins could be a bust, but i could also see him developing into an elite QB. Rosen would condemn us to continued mediocrity. To me, the chance of having a true franchise QB is worth the added cost of our 2020 2nd rounder.

Listening to Colin Cowherd today he likes Haskins and thinks he could be a good NFL QB, then turns around and says he feels sorry for him ending up in DC. What will it take for the Redskins to get some respect back?

Respect is earned over time. The team has been a constant circus for 20 years. The redskins have worked very hard to build up their reputation of being dysfunctional. The first round of one draft that appears to be good during the moment doesn't - and shouldn't - change that.

And lets not forget - 7 years ago we drafted a first round QB who was going to save the franchise and Snyder ruined it by meddling and empowering him to be a diva. Haskins is a local kid who went to the same school as Snyder's son and Snyder reportedly was the driving force behind our drafting him.

Do you think Snyder is more or less likely to meddle with Haskins than he did with RG3?

If Snyder doesn't stay of the way, this situation could very quickly turn toxic.

I feel that there has to be someone in the FO that did a good job at reaching a compromise on what Dan/Bruce/Doug wanted vs. what Jay and the coaching staff wanted (maybe Kyle Smith). I think the old dysfunctional Redskins would not have been patient with Haskins, baited the Giants into reaching for Jones, and traded back into the first round for Sweat.

How many teams picking 1 thru 14 were even looking QB? When the Giants took Jones, my first thought was "There is an outside shot that the Bengals may look at Haskins, but if Cincy does not take him, he is Washington bound".

In truth, you could say the Giants passed on him. But look around the Interwebs today......Giants are getting persecuted for 'the reach' for Jones. Washington getting the praise for a solid first round.

I bet he'll ask Dougie for #17 and he'll get it. He'd look good with #1. Maybe #15 to help him remember.

As a Redskins fan since 1968 and a Columbus, Ohio resident since 1974 (and thereby an involuntary observer of all things Buckeyes since then), let me tell you that this is a tremendous pick at No. 15. Haskins has the potential to be one of the dominant QB's of the next 20 years in NFL. His mental skills are off the charts. He truly has a thunderbolt of an arm. But his lack of experience is his Achilles heal (along with the fact that the Skins barely have a single NFL caliber receiver on heir roster).

But Haskins needs to be developed slowly. Don't "throw him into the fire" and kill his incredible ability to read defenses and find the open receiver. Don't make him jumpy. Getting Haskins is a gift. He is without a doubt a potential all-pro QB. He should be worked into his roll along with the team committing to use their first round pick next year on a WR and go get another one in UFA. Give him the weapons and this kid can take the Skins back to the top. I have seen him make so many unbelievable plays at OSU. And he is so smart. Damn this is our chance to start the climb back to respectability if we do not screw him up.

By the way, the kid will not worry about his jersey number. He is very mature.
