And because you KNOW you're taking Young. If neither of these is true, you do what we're currently doing. Cool so what do you do if the Bengals take Young?

Or get ready for the biggest draft pick trade since RG3. All you have to say is, 'If Chase Young is there, we' taking him.' Not saying that means there could be something more to the smoke than just smoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's absolutely no reason to tip your hand publicly, it's the entire reason the Redskins are doing their due diligence on every top prospect. They don't have to say anything to anyone publicly, they owe that to no-one. They don't owe it to the fans, and as much as the media thinks they always ”deserve to know” they don't deserve to know the truth either. They could have told Haskins already that them talking to Burrow and Tua is smokescreen but also told him not to say anything. We don't know anything about any of that, and we don't have to know. The Redskins should keep their plans for building this roster mostly internal, I'm glad it seems they are doing that.

But I also think, and have said, we have a QB that is, well, young. He may not like this. Personally, I agree with the bolded above. I would hope they give him that respect. And I'm still okay with a trade down if it's a massive return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Young is gone and they view the two QBs as players they’d want then at least they’ve done their study. I’d personally hate it and prefer a trade down but this is just normal for teams picking in the top 3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody comes out and says “we’re taking player X”. It simply does not happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARTMONK HOF Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Dan Orlovsky’s idea of what RR was doing when he publicly said that he was interviewing Tua and Burrow was that he was testing how Haskins (maturity) in handling that info. Sounds to me like that would be something RR would do. Also it could be a smoke screen as well, serving as dual purpose. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's been done a few days ahead. Again, I'm not suggesting they do that. Interesting comment by Orlovsky. It'sas if Haskins' maturity is a running question in the NFL. I tried to point out some of those dots here. But the masses seem to not want to connect them. Edited March 2, 2020 by Skinsin2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
