How Many Games Should We Test Haskins?

[BaltimoreSkins]

If the QB field is as loaded as everyone says we shouldn't be talking about trying to trade up to the number 1 pick. Also this concept of tanking in the NFL seems crazy to me. Has there ever been a team that has tanked for a draft pick that went on to win a super bowl with that player? This isn't the NBA or NHL

Colts did it for Luck and Manning

I don't think they tanked for Manning they were perennial bottom feeders in the 90s. They did tank for Luck but they never won a conference or a super bowl with him. That wasn't on him it is just the quintessential team sport.

I hope we are not tanking, especially for Lawrence. I do not think Lawrence is worthy of being the #1 overall pick personally. I have seen too many games where he isn't pin point accurate, like Tua or Burrow were. He gets bailed out by the top wr talent. Lawrence reminds me of Tribisky with a better supporting cast.

He's the consensus #1 Overall prospect and many believe he's the first can't miss QB since Luck (who was damn good when healthy) There is no way you pass up on this kid

Yeah, if you have the #1 pick.

We have a 1/32 chance of getting that pick, and unless we are so insanely terrible as to lose out those odds are terrible. Shit, our defensive line is good enough to win at least a couple games as the primary cause (the Eagles win already counts as 1, no way we win that game without their performance).

I get it, just from what I have seen, especially against the better teams he isn't a great passer. He has elite arm talent but not elite accuracy and that certainly showed against LSU and a few other games. There was a clear difference between him and Burrow. Just something to keep in mind....

We've all see the consensus #1 overall prospects not pan out...not saying Trevor will not pan out - time will tell.

At this point, I don't think you pass him up if you have the #1 pick. However, I think it's very unlikely that this team has the #1 pick next year. They will win at least a handful of games. No chance they trade up to get him in my opinion.

I think the Jets get the pick but handful is wishful thinking.. 3 max

I haven't been sold on Tua just because he went to Bama the Saban plan is defense and run, but Tua seems different from previous Bama QBs so I look forward to seeing him proving me wrong at some point.
