If I'm Rivers I'm looking at an immediate contender as I want a ring. He could view us as contenders in 2-3 years but does that fit his timeline? If the Raiders are sniffing around Brady then they are likely sounding out Rivers too, and he'd likely prefer to stay out west if he could and they seem closer to the playoffs than us.
If he came in as an immediate starter and Haskins didn't go off in a huff etc. but studied behind him and showed he was ready to take over in 2-3 then maybe I can see this, but i just don't. Besides his cap hit will be horrible and we've shown we're building young.

This is very interesting to me. Before people say he's too old, he threw for 4,600 yds last year. Always loved the dude's attitude. Starting to really wonder Rivera's feelings on Haskins. Tua and Rivers are way too talented to get if he's sold on Haskins.
Ready to take heat for this, but the idea of Rivers and Chase Young joining the Skins sounds pretty darn good to me. Doubt Rivers comes to DC but very intriguing if this report is credible.
Makes sense to me. Haskins had few starts in college. People said he was raw and needed time to mature and develop. You bring in a veteran like this for 1-2 years and let Haskins learn from a pro like Rivers?! Then turn it over to Haskins and we have Chase Young in his 3rd year terrorizing people. Could be the best thing for us. Teams don’t let high QB picks wait to develop much anymore, but look what it did for Rodgers Behind Favre. I’m enamored with this idea all of a sudden.

Put me in the solid NO on this. Haskins is either the choice or he isn't. If he isn't then get Tua, Herbert or another rookie. If he is, then at most bring in a backup QB for backup QB money. I love Haskins' potential, but he will self destruct if he is backseated for an aging star. He showed that last year.

To have fun and do it somewhere else...in a spot where he is from....maybe to prove he can do it without Hoodie and Kraft
I would tend to agree, pretty sure as it always has been money isn't a priority for Brady. Doesn't his wife make $50 mil a year or used to?

I 100% agree, you are either all in on Haskins until he succeeds or fails or just get rid of him. He appeared disinterested at times when he wasn't playing. Do not bring in someone to have a QB competition with him.
Rivers isn’t coming here

Who said it’s a competition? Maybe the new staff thinks he needs more time to develop and learn. Since win is a 16 year pro who put up 4600 yards last year as a mentor is a bad thing? It not like Rivers would be a long term answer. He’s a 1-2 year stop gap to let our very young and inexperienced QB of the future be prepared to dominate when his turn comes up.

Rivers is not a good choice for us. Everyone who really don’t know much about this team thinks the Redskins are not sold on Haskins because of his overall record in his rookie year. They haven’t watched his film of his last few games where he really started to EXCEL and show he might be our franchise QB of the future.
The idea of sitting Haskins for a year or two behind a veteran QB is just as terrible as all the people who wanted him to sit out his rookie year OR LONGER. Haskins needs game time experience more than anything. He plays this upcoming year and shows growth and improvement and leadership OR we’re drafting for a QB in the 2021 draft. Sitting a QB is ok if you’re a playoff contender and you’re SURE the young QB is a franchise QB like Mahomes. Haskins needs to prove he’s our guy this season by playing all season and winning games and bringing our offense out of the cellar. Period.

I’ve always loved Rivers but his game fell off a bit last year. He’s lost some of his fastball, we can’t afford him anyway.

If we trade Trent we will have 72 mil in cap space.
