Because generally speaking the only 2 rookie QB's in the NFL that were openly discussed on this board pre draft were Murray and Haskins.
They had very similar college experience except that Murray played baseball too, but Murray is light years ahead of Haskins right now.
he's not played well at all the last 2 weeks but at least we don't have an announcer on national tv openly suggesting Kyler is faking a limp hoping the coach will take him out of the game which happened today in the Washington game with haskins. Kyler was very confused today by Pittsburgh, threw a terrible INT in the endzone, played very poorly and still looked dramatically better than Haskins.
if we had traded down and picked Haskins I don't think he'd even be playing for us, I think it's pretty obvious right now why Gruden wasn't playing him, he was protecting the kid because he knew he was nowhere near ready, Kyler hasn't gotten that he has been the starter from the second he signed.
Nothing was forcing us to take a QB #1 overall. If we needed to build both lines and add skill position players, we could have gotten a jump start doing so in 2019.
instead we have a guy who is leading the league — absurdly — in sacks and intentional throwaways while also adding nothing with his vaunted elite rushing ability.
Don’t take 1-year starters.
