If both Herbert and Haskins declare, they're both going top 10 and I wouldn't be surprised if Haskins is top 5. He's going to be good. I could see JAX, NYG, WAS fighting to trade up for Haskins.
I know I shouldn’t do it but Haskins just reeks of an Ohio State QB that never does anything in the NFL.
Rollo, you should have gone with your gut man. Haskins has been a very good QB for them without any of the gimmick type of offense that most teams use in college. He has looked better than Mitchell Trubisky did in one year of college ball, Haskins might need a year on the bench and hopefully he’s paired with a good OC or good offensive minded HC but I see him transitioning to NFL game and doing very well. If Giants get him, having Barkley and Odell will be exactly what he needs, as he won’t need to do it all.
No I know I’ve seen him the last 3-4 games and he looks like a player but I just can’t shake the visions of Cardale Jones JT Barrett Tyrelle Prior Braxton Miller. He’s much much much better but those buckeye stickers give me the heebee jeebees. And one should NEVER judge a player based on school. Like USC QBs.
That’s really kind of why I’m rooting to lose. Love to have the 2 or 3 pick because I know we’re not getting Bosa and I’d much prefer to drop back to 6 or 8 or so and take one if the tackles. Folks are only trading up for a QB.

Raiders from Bears (11-4)* 29. Patriots (10-5)* 30. Rams (12-3)* 31. Chiefs (11-4)* 32. Packers from Saints (13-2 You might have a few teams trading up into the top 5 for a quarterback. Hopefully the Jets get lucky.
Very unlikely teams will be trading into top 5 for a QB this year. More likely this will be a repeat of 17 with teams trading into 10 or so range for QB they like best. The price to move into top 5 just doesn’t meet the talent at QB this year.
The best thing about that order is that most likely all 3 teams ahead of the Jets will not draft QB. The Bucs, Bengals, Giants or Jags could be looking to leap frog each other and do exactly that even if the value at 4/5 is over priced. I'd love to see the Jets get some extra second round picks to make up for last year. Might be a tough sell, though, it's not like 2018 QB class.
I'll make the prediction now, I think Haskins goes top 5. He's the real deal. His stats are significantly better than his predecessors. He's been asked to throw the ball significantly more than anyone before him. He's got the arm talent and body for a long career. Most importantly, he's a smart kid.
