Will the Current Treatment of HASKINS Effect His Tenure and Performance with the Redskins?

[sdskinsfan2001]

Haskins needs to be playing. We do not have a valid option in front of him. And it doesn't matter if he plays bad and loses. It's all about getting those experience points up.

Although I guess I'm not against waiting till the bye week as long as the plan is clear among the coaches and front office and Haskins is aware. Give him 2 weeks with the 1st team for a game against the Jets.

I’m calling the BS FLAG on the Haskins pick. Pundits throughout the NFL (who usually Hate the Redskins) gave this team an A or B+ for this draft. Lots of stories of the Redskins WINNING THIS DRAFT. Most LOVED the Haskins pick. He WAS NOT a “third round pick” as someone suggested. He had an outstanding record at a big college program. The risk was in his number of played games. But EVERY DRAFT PICK IS A RISK! A study showed that only a third of first and second round players are in the NFL five years later.

We used a #15 draft pick for him. He’s either going to work out or be the next in a long list of failed Redskins draft picks in the last 20+ years. Shuler, Campbell and RG3 as a few examples. This season is toast. Play him NOW and see what he’s got. It’s not magically going to get better for him next year. There have been very, very few modern QB, and I’m talking HOFer who did not struggle mightily in their first seasons. Haskins will also. But in the second and third year we truly find out if he’s franchise material or not. Cousins was the last QB we nurtured to a decent level. But he was pissed because he sat around waiting for the “perfect moment” to replace RG3 even though he was clearly a better QB.

Play Haskins and see what he’s got, because without a Franchise QB you can not win in the NFL. Will McCoy and Keenum even be in the team next year? Doubtful. Will they even be in the NFL next year? ALL the rookies on the team need reps to see if they’re players, not the vets who will be dumped in Jan with a new HC.

Cooley called him a project before the draft and said no way is he a 1st round pick.

The sentiment your referencing was far from universal regarding Haskins.

Serious question. How much time should elapse before a draft can be accurately graded? (I'd say 3 to 4 years)

Cooley also said he loved the Guice pick and was going to be a stud... He's a talking head , that's his job, also said the skins wouldn't miss Smith with the draft of Sweat...

Are you serious?

Guice is injury prone. Unless Cooley examined the MRIs he was probably just going by the tape which was dynamic and impressive.

Sweat was the reason pundits were raving about the draft.

I do think Sweat will find his sea legs.

I also think Haskins is a project and shouldn't have been picked at 15.

Louis Riddick said Haskins was the best overall QB in the draft and was a great pick at 15. It all depends on who u ask, the draft is a crapshoot.

Someone should have asked Bruce about Preston Smith yesterday. Why is he a stud and we got peanuts sans for “setting the edge” on the run.

Agreed. In 1st round draft pick‘s QB Shuler and Campbell’s case it took 25-35 regular seasons games to determine they were busts. RG3 was an anomaly because he was hurt and Cousins was pushing up underneath him from below.

We spent a first rounder for Haskins - regardless of whether Chris Cooley thinks we should have drafted him, Haskins must be coached up and played in regular games to see if he is the future or not!! We have the foundation in the WR group to work with Haskins. The OL MUST BE REBUILT in this draft as well as getting a prime TE.

The sooner we get started with Haskins the better. He either is the future or not.

I just can't get over Haskins not playing against the Dolphins. Crazy. I literally can not stand watching Case or Colt play QB.

I will only watch that game to see a rare Redskins victory. The rest of the season I will probably watch a little till it gets ugly and then hit the shop and listen on the radio. If they put Haskins in like they did against the Giants I will watch the whole time he is in there. Agreed that watching Case and Colt play is painful, Colt is the worst. He should not be allowed in an NFL game.

I'm not sold this team beats Miami Sunday.

QB is the most important position in sports so it’s worth reaching for a QB if you don’t have one. There was zero young talent at QB last year and they didn’t pass on a better prospect so I don’t get all the drama around the pick. Different rules for QBs!

All the drama around Haskins arena from the same source:. Dan Snyder.

The idea that Snyder overruled his own draft board and made the pick himself puts a slant on the whole situation.

It's not fair to haskins but that's where the drama is coming from.

Haskins will get his chance .. let’s give BC a shot .. I believe that once the teams starts to improve and I believe they will I think Haskins will get some playing time. I actually believe they will win Sunday and this team will be competitive the rest of year.. why you ask .. because Jay gave up a long time ago and the players saw it ..if all of us went insane watching him coach don’t you think the players were frustrated also? I Have no faith in bruce but he ain’t playing I do think we have some good players .. we win Sunday by 2 touchdowns...
