His knock at Ohio was his running ability. I've seen him throw for over 500yds in a game. Why such a bad pro? Some one shed some light.
Wowzers.
There must have been a lot going on behind the scenes with Haskins in terms of maturity and responsibility that I imagine we’ll start hearing about.
Called in wen drafted by his hometown team n the area with his friends n family no where to hide unless it’s a road game come to Dallas start over homieStrong statement......
Of course he would have been the better player. He also would have been the better player had gruden and rivera not totally derailed him. The kid had great momentum coming into this season. He had elite numbers in the final 4 games of last year. Rivera comes to town brings in kyle allen to pretty much take the job all the while telling everyone he doesn't believe in Haskins.I get both arguments
But he needed to grow as a player so I think as a player staying another year would have greatly benefited him
But it wasn’t like he would have been picked any higher by staying and financially I would have came out myself
I don’t blame a player for coming out even if he’s not a top 20 player. You could get injured, have a bad season or any number of things
But strictly as a player he could have benefitted by staying, assuming he used that time to improve his game. it appears that wouldn’t have been the case with him though
you guys are missing the point badly....regardless of whether Heinke would start or not, the football team needs at least 2 qb's on its roster on game day....IF smith was potentially a no go, there is no way they would release Haskins and chance having to grab a qb off the street as the backup....
It's a guaranteed contract he's still getting paid without going to work lol.I agree with your point in general...definitely take that pay day while its there....
But in his case, maybe with another year in school he ends up elsewhere and is still employed today.
What is the issue with Alex Smith? I haven’t paid attention since then but he played pretty well against us.He was demoted to 3rd team. Rivera already said the backup would play over Haskins if needed
It's possible Smith will be healthy enough to back-up but not start
This is spot on. You would have hoped his first 2 coaches would have supported him and got behind him to help him but instead they went out of their way to not support him.Many will not want to hear this but if you watch his OSU film, you see a kid who throws to easy targets. Don't bet me wrong, I'm not trying to say they weren't good or accurate or anything else. I'm saying that if you go to play QB at a school like OSU, you aren't really forced to develop certain skills. You are, more times then not, throwing to the very best WR talent, being protected by the best OL talent, being supported by the best running game and probably playing with a lead because you have the best Defensive talent in the country, most times, rather then playing from behind and that talent goes three deep. You don't learn to throw into tight windows or make quick reads. You get away with mistakes you wouldn't be able to if you played at a school who wasn't as talented.
You kinda see the same thing at Alabama. That's my take on it.
Someone on this board will be pissed if we don’t pick him up. A Dak hater will say with our offense, Haskins would be just as good as Prescott at a cheaper rate.Vet min + incentives!!’
I know he’s not a vet. Just making a joke
It wasn't a strip club.He had his captaincy removed and had multiple issues. The last two were the party at the strip club, and missing a play at the end of a game because he was taking a selfie with a fan...while the game was still being played.
ha! wow....guess that means smith is going to play
I would actually really like if we signed him as a backup behind dak. Dalton is gone after this year.Someone on this board will be pissed if we don’t pick him up. A Dak hater will say with our offense, Haskins would be just as good as Prescott at a cheaper rate.
14 million for 16 gamesIt's a guaranteed contract he's still getting paid without going to work lol.
They saw good accuracy, 50tds, 6 ints, non mobile qb which game translates pretty well to the nfl. He needed work on the mental parts of the game. You can't do that when your first 2 coaches don't even want you on the team.

Yeh rivera didn't want him before he ever even met him. Hence him bringing in kyle allen from carolina immediately. Then coming out and saying he isn't fully backing haskins at qb. If you live in the corporate world that means I brought this guy here to take your job and will do what I can to make it happen.14 million for 16 games
Not a bad gig
But for a team to eat that much cap space with the cap projected to drop means there may be more to this story than just bad play
