What teams should do

#15

You really trust this front office to get the QB position right? I don't. You show me one successful QB this franchise has ever taken at any point in the 1st RD and we probably wouldn't be having this conversation right now. They're not taking Haskins with the 7th overall pick. It's just not happening. Not after what they've done with Foles and with how they handled Bortles' situation cap wise (they chose to eat the cap hit this year to avoid blurring any lines here about whose the QB moving forward).

Drafting Haskins 7th overall would start a [BLEEP] storm and circus the moment he throws an INT. Especially when we have a lot of issues and needs to address on offense. We need help in pass and run protection. We need help on the outside. We certainly need help in the backfield. Referencing Aaron Rodgers, who rode the pine behind Brett Favre, Tom Brady, who, thanks to an injury saw the field early and may have never been who we've grown to see, and then Mahomes, who was guaranteed to start in 2018 with Alex Smith woefully failing to get a play-off team over the hump is not good enough to justify Haskins there.

Rodgers sat for three long years behind Favre. And those guys you also cited WERE NOT top 10 overall selections with the exception of Mahomes, which, again, he was a starter after just one season. And we knew that was coming with the obvious moves the Chiefs made to get him. 30 also is no longer "30" in today's soft era of football. Foles could probably play another 5+ years if needed.

They have to spend that 7th overall pick on either improving his time in the pocket or by adding a piece on the outside to target. Or, they go defense or trade down. Haskins? No. No thanks. We need instant impact on this team while we have what's left of this defense intact. Next year's QB class is looking a lot more promising any way.
