Re: QB or BPA for our #1 Draft Pick - 2020
Bengals woulda drafted Haskins last year if they wanted him. Haskins play hasn’t made them feel any regret for passing on him

Maybe the Bengals had a 2nd or 3rd round grade on Haskins and WOULD have drafted him if he'd been there with one of those picks. You cant say they don't like Haskins at all simply because they didn't REACH even higher than Snyder to get him. As far as Haskins' play, no, it hasn't been good, but he wasn't expected to be good right away. He had limited experience in college and was not viewed as NFL-ready. What we are seeing now is exactly what we thought we would see. I would imagine that his play so far is in line with the draft grades most teams had on him. So basically, you can't say Haskins doesn't have ANY value in a trade. Josh Rosen was awful last year, had much less "upside" than Haskins, and the Dolphins still gave up a 2nd round pick for him. Its preposterous to think there aren't coaches out there who don't think they could mold Haskins into a top QB. Ultimately, whatever we do with Haskins, it should not impact our desire to trade up to #1 to get Burrow. Find out what the Bengals want and then do it. That's my opinion anyways.

But I don't see Haskins plus the #2 pick to draft Chase Young + something else as being a bad deal for the #1 pick. Ultimately, my point is that I believe Burrow to be the kind of QB that doesn't come around very often. The draft is such a lottery and he looks like more of a sure thing than any QB in recent memory. With the #2 overall pick, we would have stronger trade ammunition than just about anyone else. No matter how well Haskins plays the rest of the year, I think we need to do whatever it takes to get Burrow. Hopefully, the Bengals stumble into a win or two so we end up with the #1 overall pick on our own. ![]()

I think they really liked the Alabama tackle they drafted. (I did too.) Plus, I'm not sure they were quite ready to give up on Dalton at that time.

Only if our new HC 100% wants a new QB and doesn't see Haskins as the proper scheme fit should we move on from Haskins. I really think Haskins deserves a second year and I rather only draft Chase Young in the top 3 OR move back in the first to get more picks. I like the Georgia tackle, but this NFL draft crop is full of great Tackle prospects.
