Re: Dwayne Haskins
After 2 games so far, when under pressure he does struggle some but I will say he's damn good in the pocket when he has the time like very accurate and fast release

Re: Dwayne Haskins
Haskins will be the franchise QB of the Redskins for the next decade. I think he will win the contest to start as QB this season, as I don't think Smith or maybe even McCoy will be back from their injuries. He will have the usual rookie QB issues of the first season, but the Redskins have a pretty good OL to keep him relatively safe. The biggest problem is that the 'skins WR group is weak. I hope that the Redskins will try to get one more good WR from FA before the season to help him out. Over the last couple years the Redskins have let three 1,000+ yard WR leave the team, while hoping that Dougherty will somehow not be a bust. Hopefully, our two WR draft picks will do well.
I am glad the Redskins took the chance to get a franchise QB from the draft, Allen's decision last year to spend millions on a 35+ year old QB was a stupid mistake that the Redskins will pay for in cap money for the next few years. Haskins is the future!

Re: Dwayne Haskins
He's a very smart guy. I think he's going to be very successful. |

This is why I'm giving him all the off season reps, he's only started one season of college. He needs the reps in the worst way. |

Get him in there and get him learning. Give him all the reps, ride with the highs and lows of a first year QB and get the experience. I also agree with your first point, he can work on all his deficiencies full time now. A couple of his biggest knocks are footwork and spiral velocity. Both easily fixed. The important stuff is there, especially for this offense. He can read defenses quickly and get the ball out on time. I'll admit I was lukewarm about the pick at the time but the kids starting to grow on me. I'm excited to see him out there.

Re: Dwayne Haskins
Haskins needs the reps. I don't think he needs to sit and watch Colt McCoy play for a season. Get him in there and suffer through the ups and downs of a rookie season.

Re: Dwayne Haskins
The notion that he is slow in the pocket is so false. Kid has all the tools to be a great NFL QB. It's up to the team to surround him with the weapons needed. This guy could fight for R.O.Y . I've watched every snap he had in 2018 over the past week, he's the real deal.

Re: Dwayne Haskins
I watch the A22 footage but that is through work, I'd say check out the Maryland game, (2nd half he was amazing). Michigan and Washington games. I have also seen his worst game of the season (Penn St).

Re: Dwayne Haskins
Haskins was well protected for most of the season. If you watch the highlight tapes on YouTube, they show the big plays, the long TD passes. On those the line all blocked so well that he could sit and wait for his WRs to uncover down the field and then he releases a bomb.
What you don't see on the highlights very often is how he did when the pocket actually collapsed. If you watch enough clips on YouTube you eventually see them - you can see he feels the rush and slides around in the pocket well. This is not a situation like Kirk Cousins who just didn't feel the rush very well and as a result he fumbled so often. Haskins slides around, takes a few steps here or there, slides up in the pocket, all while keeping his eyes downfield. He doesn't look at the rush and he doesn't panic. It's a good base upon which he can build. He'll have to work on the timing-based routes in Gruden's system to get them down pat, but I don't have concerns that we're getting a QB who's going to take a lot of sacks. He's a pocket passer, but one with pocket awareness. And he's not a complete statue, you'll see plays on YouTube where he scrambles away pretty well. Don't mistake a QB who stays in the pocket and keeps his eyes downfield for one who can't move around at all.
