Anyone that thinks that Haskins (or any other rookie) is the answer really needs to get away from college football and the video games.  Also thinking that you can sign a veteran to a "one year prove it deal" or a "bridge deal" is also living in dream land.

Any veteran FA is going to want at the minimum a 3 year deal and the chance to be THE starter.  Foles, Flacco or to a lesser extent Fitzpatrick would be the ideal choices.  A "bridge" QB is going to be someone like Gabbert.

Are you ever going to actually give us some analysis on why you think Haskins will be a subpar QB or are you just going to insist he's bad? You and Pirk have a lot of opinions on him with very little if anything at all to back it up 

Also a veteran is more likely to sign a 2+1 deal with an option on the 3rd or with a 3rd year that can be easily cut. Teams aren't going to fully commit on a stop gap for 3 seasons. Thats generally how those signing work
