Sure, Haskins isn't Rivera's guy... but he acquired Kyle Allen from the Panthers. He has a young prospect who showed some promise at the end of the year with Haskins. And still has the veteran Alex Smith who has stated he wants to play.
With maybe little to no off season OTAs and TC taking ANOTHER young QB seems silly to me when the Skins definitely could use a franchise pass rusher or OL help.
Add to it that if Tua is the guy here with his medical/injury issues and the lack of solid OL play last season it just screams disaster. I would hope Rivera is smarter than that.

I agree with you except for your last sentence.  I hope he's not smarter than that.

He's obviously got a QB in mind since he's no Haskins fan. Allen was brought in as a placeholder who's familiar with the playbook. I think Herbert will be their guy. He's big and mobile like Cam. Or they'll trade down and try to nab Jordan Love. Chase Young will go to the Ligers. Okudah will fall to the Panthers or Jags.
