You started off right, but i have a completely different take on that analogy:
Haskins is like a kid who got straight A's in High School without studying thinking he could do the same in College. But when he found out otherwise, he realized he was in way over his head and questioned whether he made a mistake in going to College in the first place.
I do not think he will be ok. I base my opinion on the fact that he isn't showing a single one of the crucial traits that even mediocre high draft pick QBs have - confidence, leadership, effort, and a burning desire to improve.
Its not his performance on the field that makes me feel he is a bust. That can all be corrected with coaching. Its his actions and demeanor off the field. No coach can change that. He's got to want to do it himself, and he clearly doesn't.
