NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Awesome. But you would be blindly guessing. I’m not.

Never mind the rest that I said is true and for whatever reason you cannot own up to it. You did move the goalposts and the comment about Baker succeeding if his coaches play to his strengths and would struggle if they don't is not something you should need anyone to tell you about any top pick.

and since so few QBs taken in the mid teens as the 3rd QB selected in the draft succeed it's hardly a blind guess.

Hardly a fair comparison. The Cavs have 2 time champion Javale McGee on their bench.

He looked pretty good tonight...Dropped 13 on the Bee's

 

[DJ Fieri]

You are hilarious.

So, you want to claim I was wrong about Baker when I made a pretty vague could go either way comment about him.

But, you won’t give me any credit for the players I did go strong on and was correct because it is “easy to pick”.

I was vague about Baker because the data on him was inconclusive. It isn’t inconclusive on guys like Haskins.

Haskins is still young and could do well with a change of scenery IMO. Not great, but maybe a possible top 15 QB one day.

Haskins is trash

No DJ. He really can’t.

When I said my piece on Haskins, I didn’t even know his work ethic and leadership skills were so suspect.

Arm talent is just a small piece of the puzzle for QB prospects and Haskins is severely lacking pretty much everywhere else. A lot of guys can throw.

15 games isn't a large enough sample size.

It isn’t about the sample size.

I am telling you he is mentally incapable of making accurate, fast decisions in real time. He does not have the ability to do it.

It isn’t an experience thing either. He can’t see the field.

Also bad qbs like Haskins dont last long as starters in this league. 3 year tops. You get 2-3 years to prove yourself then you're basically a backup/practice squad qb the rest of your career

Just scheduled my vaccine appointment

He is going the way of Josh Rosen. Won’t be surprised if he doesn’t get another NFL start after this season.

He just hasn’t flashed enough upside to make up for the uneven play and off field issues.

That wouldn't surprise me. He may be out of the league in another 3-4 years.

Rosen about to be out within the next 2 years IMO

Yeah my wife was one if the first to get the vaccine over a week ago. Then we both got covid a couple days ago. She never got the 2nd shot yet so it really takes about a month overall for the vaccine to work
