Haskins Declares

The Browns Board
99 23 2.5k 1
  • Here is an interesting proposition...that I just came up with:

    Arizona uses their #1 overall pick in the draft to choose Duane Haskins....who they perhaps see as having far more future potential than Josh Rosen.

    They trade Rosen for a 1st round pick to somebody willing and pick up another player that they can use badly.

    Jags/Giants/Redskins......would any of them consider that sort of deal?

    Depends if the Cardinals incoming coach sees Rosen as "the guy".  But his 67 qbr, 11\14 td\int ratio, & 10 fumbles (5 lost) isn't going to impress other teams. In his Josh's defense he got pounded for 45 sacks behind a swiss cheese O-line. So what's his trade value? Not outside of the realm of possibility if you want to speculate.

    Would you?

    Writing was on the wall when our new, Buckeye QB, Fields, announced his intention to transfer last week.

    I'd be very nervous spending a first on Haskins. Just not a lot of tape there.

    He was making big throws in big games. Broke Drew Brees TD record. He’s a baller. So is Lawrence from Clemson... absolute stud

    Yeah, and the kid's a 19 year old TRUE Freshman! He was impressive as hell & will be fun to follow in the future.

  • Here is a bit of "trivia".......that I heard earlier:    If Haskins is taken in the first round...and he will be.....he will be the first Big Ten QB taken in the first round since Kerry Collins was taken in 1995.

    Now, that seems hard to believe, but it is apparently true....EVEN though all of the following are true since 1995:

    A. The GOAT at QB.....Tom Brady  is from the Big Ten...Michigan (and if you don't buy him....the other GOAT candidate came from the Big Ten....Otto Graham...Northwestern......and if not him the other name   Joe Montana played in the heart of Big Ten country:  Notre Dame)

    B. The all time passing yards leader in NFL history...Drew Brees is from the Big Ten..Purdue

    C. The highest paid QB of all time....Kirk Cousins is from the Big Ten....Mich. State

    D. Another potential future HOFer....Russell Wilson ...2 Time SB starter is from the Big Ten...Wisconsin

    (and, if you think about it....several QBs from Big Ten states got away from Big Ten schools.....Ben R., Trubisky etc.

    I'm never one to be a flair for the dramatic, that's for sure. But if youngblood plays like that for two more years he's going to get the "trade the whole draft" evaluation to include teams speculating on taking a QB in 2020 to "wait" for Trevor. Of course one may recall that same conversation was had about Sam "the man" Darnold and that didn't quite pan out.

    Yeah, realized that just a second too late.  

    We need to just call him Sunshine to help separate him from Dexter Lawrence.

    The Cardinals new coach is Kliff Klingsbury from Texas Tech and I guess briefly from USC.

    He was the architect of like the typical  63-48 Big 12 score games.  

    I consider that a very, very long reach......typical of the Cardinals organization, which except for a brief period around 2008, have not been relevent since the late 1940s.  

  • Arizona Cardinals (3-13) -- have QB
    San Francisco 49ers (4-12) -- have QB
    New York Jets (4-12) -- have QB
    Oakland Raiders (4-12) -- have QB
    Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-11) -- have QB
    New York Giants (5-11)
    Jacksonville Jaguars (5-11)
    Detroit Lions (6-10) -- have QB

    Yes, someone could trade up, but if I were GM of either, I wouldn't.  The DL talent is plentiful this year and each of the top5 could/should take DL.  Haskins will probably be the 6.

    This may be a reach but I believe Tom Coughlin is part of Jacksonville's front office. I wonder if Eli's connection to Coughlin could be a one or two year plan for Jacksonville, who thought they had the pieces for a run (especially after last season), while they can develop their next QB.

    Not a reach....it has been brought up a few times before here.

    Not if I think Bosa is a Myles Garrett quality defender....  If I was the Cardinals GM, I'd want a Carson Wentz\ RG III haul to move down- FWIW, MHO is it's too early to bail on Rosen....

    Would it be bailing on Rosen....or simply acknowledging that Haskins has far more of an upside than he...and would be a better choice for my franchise. 

    Of course, like you said....if they think that Rosen will be just fine for them and that Bosa is la creme de la creme and not to be missed out on...then they stick with Rosen and go for Bosa.   Now then....What about the 49ers?  Are they secure with Garropolo?  If so....would they entertain trade downs to pick up picks?

    Hey Giants...or Jags....give me your first and your second rounder!........Would that do it for them?

    Well to be fair, you have to also give ACC credit with Wilson. He was at Wisconsin for 1 year, NC State for more

    That would be far more likely Gip, if Bosa is off the board. Jimmy G is for sure the Niners QBOTF, if not the present. ACL, and he certainly showed enough before he got hurt that San Fran would be willing to deal for a bunch of picks...

    Pure Gold Mark O...I shook my head at work when I heard this & said.."Did I just hear what I thought I heard?" and that ^^^ exact flash, in that order ran through my head..We also travel to Zona next season..

    I am hoping that the schedule makers put the Browns game at AZ in early December, like this past year with the Houston game.  I would seriously consider attending that game....and expect a more favorable outcome than vs. the DATs.
