Chase Young = 100%
Trade Down = 50%
Tua = -50%
Total = 100%

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???

It all boils down to RR, does he really believe in DH as his franchise QB? The fact that he hasn't come out and said "Dwayne is our guy" makes it seem like he's on the fence... Could be a smokescreen, could be motivation for DH.. We will see come draft night

He hasn’t said anything yet because he doesn’t have to. Why show your hand now?

Agreed.

By all accounts, Chase Young is a generational defensive talent. I just don't see RR letting that go by him.

Give DH a shot this year to show what he's got. If he can't cut it, then you see about going all in on trying to snag your QB of the future.

Trevor Lawrence at Clemson and Justin Fields at Ohio State will lead the QB list for the 2021 draft. But there will be others that emerge like Joe Burrows did this past year.

Or .... maybe ... we get lucky and draft Jalen Hurts this year, and maybe he turns out to be our QB of the future.


Give me Chase Young this year, and let's elevate our D-Line to elite status.

That's fair but usually you see more backing for your 1st rd QB.. In fact one of the first things he said was "we will look at all options" That doesn't sound like a guy all in on his guy. It's def something to watch in the next month

SFOK, I like you man, but this is just nonsense.

Let's go.

$100 that Dwayne Haskins will still be our first string qb after draft night.

All that matters is what Rivera has personally told Haskins

Re: Should we be drafting Tua???

Young is as close to a sure thing as any prospect in recent years. In terms of ability maybe Tua is too. But his injury history is already sending up red flags. You have a potential generational talent and everyone's #1 player in the draft or a guy that might be a franchise QB or another RG3. I say you go where there is a higher degree of certainty and take Young. As said, if Haskins isn't the guy, then you draft QB again next year, but in the meantime you will have a defensive linchpin in place. And you won't have let him go to the Giants.

Georgia
neutral field Oklahoma
neutral field Clemson

Who didn't he play in college football this year?


What is true about Tua this past season...everytime he played...everytime...the announcers always talked about how much he hobbled around the field...always talking about how injured Tua was. The writing is on the wall...completely negligent to take him at 2
And yet he still had 33 td's and only 3 ints, 71% completion hobbling around... lol. But I'm you on Tua. I don't think the Skins should take him but they still have to think about it. They still have to do their due diligence.

He hobbled around the field and was still LIGHTS OUT, Kid is a left handed russell wilson, I'd be willing to bet he lasts in the NFL. He's got crazy talent

Without looking it up, I would say he's only missed a few games in his career. Deshaun Watson was an Injury risk as well and now he's a top 10 QB that is reliable. I've always disliked players being faulted due to injury, it's football it happens. Mahomes hurt his knee and ankle and missed games this year, also had shoulder surgery in college, he's the best QB in football now..
