His pocket presence is probably his most advanced trait so far imo. I think it’s almost to good how he doesn’t let what’s happening outside the pocket effect him. He stands in there like a champ.

I hope I am one of the fans having a revelation because of his future play. I just don’t see him being elite top 10. That footwork is so awkward and bad, even when he has time. Inconsistent mechanics.

I think he can be a 10-15 best QB ... which is fine, you can win with that, he has shown the ability to take chances and make big game changing plays.

Hopefully he breaks right through this random fans “too early to tell” prediction.

That has to be fixable as I have seen good footwork out of him under duress and as you say bad footwork with a clean pocket and throwing lanes. I just think he needs lots and lots of practice reps and then some more till good techniques are burned in to his memory. I read quite a few stories of Steve Young relating to how Bill Walsh fixed all his bad tendencies. He said it involved an insane amount of practicing the same thing over and over again, and again. He said quite often he had almost had enough of the monotony and wanted to walk off the practice field and go home. I think that is what Haskins needs to fix his issues with techniques.
