Re: How Many Games Should We Test Haskins?

2. Make his value as trade bait go up, when we Draft a NEW QB in the 2021 draft!
3. Improve Haskins as the BACKUP QB for the team’s rookie QB next year, after a pre-season shootout.
Rivera knows how good Allen is, as the backup. Unless Dwayne is really playing badly and/or regressing a lot we get NOTHING by putting in Allen except a victory of two more. We need a legitimate TE#1, WR # 2,3 (Inman is ok, but not the long-term answer) and at least one OT and at least one Safety. Those pieces can’t be obtained now, everything is picked clean. The team will need to use our best draft picks and trading players or BIG-Money FA pickups to fill these spots. I think Rivera could have used some FA money to get these players this season, but he wanted to see what we had. Now we know!!
Playing Allen gets us nothing but one or two wins - there are just not enough weapons now. We get much, much by playing Haskins now - as trade bait, to keep Snyder happy, and as a backup next year.

I think if Haskins doesn’t work out and Ron goes another route this offseason, I got no problem keeping Haskins and having him Hold a clipboard and learn. Have him work on mechanics. Haskins needs to mature, but I’m not a throw the towel in and get rid of him. Haskins is too young with too much talent imo.
