I really feel trading up would be an ill-advised move. I would rather have us first shore up our defense and then add an o-lineman and Wr

Haskins = Jason Campbell

If they traded up for Haskins, FedEx would be operating at 40% capacity by week 7. This would get Bruce Allen fired and maybe the NFL steps in and forces Snyder to sell.

If that were the case Haskins would be an outstanding move.

Personally I think the Redskins should do whatever it takes to trade out of the first and accumulate future picks. If they cant do that draft Sweat, Ferrell, or an olineman

Let's say that you're right and they do get Haskins, but I hope that you realize that when you wrote, "If they traded up for Haskins, FedEx would be operating at 40% capacity by week 7. This would get Bruce Allen fired and maybe the NFL steps in and forces Snyder to sell," a projection like that has 90 to 95% of Washington fans rooting for them to actually select Haskins!:D

Reminds me of JaMarcus Russell

Haskins is better than Byron Leftwich right?

The proper comparison is Peyton Manning...Good head on his shoulders and plays the head games, mobile ONLY when absolutely necessary and then won't wow you with a lot of yardage gained (the young Peyton), can make all of the throws, throws receivers open, a natural leader. That's Peyton, not Leftwich and definitely not Russell.

Kirk Herbstreit's comparison for Haskins:
In his only season as a starter, Haskins led the NCAA in passing yardage and touchdown passes. He’s been compared to quarterbacks Carson Palmer, Ben Roethlisberger and Jameis Winston. Haskins, by many, has been considered the best pure passer in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Being a Buckeye fan I'm obviously a homer but he's got a rocket and a good head on his shoulders. He's a little inexperienced in making live NFL type throws but when pressed in big games he's done well.

According to JP via Kevin Sheehan's podcast, the Skins have Lock and Jones higher on thier board than Haskins.

Lock is already a bust! Check out his splits and pay attention to his stats vs good teams and measure them against bad teams.

Will Grier is the better QB they need to take Brown or Hockenson with the 1st Grier in the 2nd

Grier is at best a 4th or 5th round selection, desperation is the ONLY reason why he would be selected sooner.

No trade up please. Take Haskins or Jones if one of them makes it to us.

LOL. Why would you have to watch the draft to find out who the Redskins select? It would simply take a few seconds from your phone or PC or a call from a fellow Redskins fan. The televised draft is mainly a bunch of fluff & hours & hours of pretty much nothing.

95%? your projection is way low.

More like 99%

Do you think that there is a single Skins fan out there that would be upset or disappointed if Bruce Allen was fired and Dan Snyder sold the team?

Yea right wtf are you smoking

Although I don't smoke or drink, I do inhale and consume a lot of facts, like the one that I posted about this guy! Just wait and see, as he turns into another Blaine Gabbert if he's lucky!

Yep, I'm sure of it, even if you only counted friends, family, and the 32 NFL teams and their fans that want them both to stay in place, continue to field losing teams and are easily outwitted in trades.
