Young 99%
Trade down 1%
Tua 0.0%

I agree that drafting Chase Young at #2 is the most likely scenario, but I don't agree that trading down has such a remote chance of happening. RR clearly stirred the pot regarding Tua, and I think that he would welcome trade offers and pull the trigger if a team offers us the moon. I think 67/33 is closer to what RR is thinking about the Young/trade down odds than 99/1.

I just don’t see that king’s ransom of an offer coming. Not for Tua.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

I think you try to create as much uncertainty and demand for the draft pick as possible. Leveraging national media, etc. to increase a sense of urgency to trade up for the pick.

We wont get 3 first round picks for our single pick. But if that moron should happen to call, you take the trade.

I was all about Chase Young, and then i listened to Mel Kiper's logic on taking Tua instead of Chase. It didnt completely sway me, but there is some fairly sound reasoning behind his view.

I think because of the injury, you pass on Tua, but you make the world think you love him.

It's not just Kiper, others have suggested the same thing. Also who leaked the info on Haskins not reading the playbook? Seems oddly fishy that its just now coming out.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

CY is the common sense pick. Common sense ain't that common. Unless I get at least (3) 1st round picks and one of those 1st has to be 2021 I'm handing in my pick for CY with a big smile

Easy decision for me.

In the NFL, You HAVE to have a QB to win , yes Chase is the best player in this draft but so was Clowney and what did that do for Houston? If we draft Young great, our D should be very good but what if Haskins is not the answer? Then you have to start over again. It's a legit concern especially for an organization starved for a QB. Tua looks like the real deal, injuries aside when healthy he's a franchise QB.. Haskins was not considered that, he was a project and is why JAY was against it. I'm all for keeping him but again it's not crazy to think Tua should be the pick.

There is literally no way Dan would've hired Rivera if Rivera didn't have a plan to try and develop Haskins into a franchise qb. Haskins earned the benefit of the doubt based off his progression last year.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

All the Redskins/Tua stories in the media and crap about Haskins is just there to get the most trade juice for our #2 pick. It just shows that Rivera can spread the smoke with the best of them when necessary.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

Most of the people who don't want the skins to take Tua think that Haskins is going to be a franchise QB. With that being said none of us know for sure about either one of them. So if RR likes Tua better than Haskins I say take him and let them have a competition to see who the franchise guy is. Some people feel he has the potential to be a mix between Russell Wilson and Drew Brees. I would take that any day. I know this could be a smoke screen to get a haul and that is ok too. But if we don't consider him and Haskins doesn't become a franchise QB and Tua turns into a mix of those two players we will be talking about this for years to come. Most of the so called experts aren't expecting a playoff run next year anyway so if RR feels he could be the real deal, draft him.

I am not sold on Haskins yet, but he really needs at least another year to be evaluated, especially when he had poor techniques that need work along with everything else. Even if we didn't have Haskins I would not want Tua at #2. Considering the Redskin's history with QB injuries taking a guy that has had two ankles and a hip operated on already by the age of 21 is just plan nuts. In the old days before teams reached for quarterbacks no way Tua would go in the first couple pics.

Re: Chase Young or Three First Round Picks?

This is Haskins year to prove himself. NO ONE knows if he is the franchise QB. But he played well enough at the end of the rookie season to deserve a chance to show his stuff this season. If he DOESN’T improve and have a good season and wining games, then we will draft a QB in 2021. This year Haskin’s must show us if he’s the franchise QB or not.
