Boomer on Haskins

joeinpa : 1/8/2019 8:31 am
He stands tall in the pocket, has great throwing motion and quick release. He s got everything you need to be an NFL quarterback; plus he s a great kid and wants to play for the Giants.

I know, it s Boomer, and I’m in the 10% here that value his take on the NFL and football in general, but thought his take here was worth sharing.

He also believes Good chance Haskins won’t be there when Giants pick at 6.

Quarterback is obviously the most important position on a team.

Some consensus top qb picks didn't work out and some great qb's went in later rounds or late in the first. Drafting qb's is a very difficult call. In my opinion, for a fan, let alone an 'expert', to say that a qb prospect is an obvious choice or is terrible isn't right. Let's leave that judgment to the professionals.

If beat player in draft this year would be a running back, think Gettleman takes him?

Need is a factor no Matter how they spin it.

Whenever a quarterback is discussed there is such a strong sentiment among many here that, “He s just not worth it”

Eventually you need to take the leap and move on from Eli.

Haskins has physical attributes, is a student of the game, he has the tools, the pro game he has to learn, just like Eli did.





Haskins ain't it, chief.

If you think Haskins is worthy of the #6 overall pick....then you flat out suck at evaluating QB play.

But everything about your posts suggests that you're great at it.

Agreed and Boomer is no expert.

His take today was the Giants should trade up to #1 to get him, no question about it.
If we really want to get into why or why not to take Esiason

at his opinion on Haskins, how about this? He does TV and Radio for the league during the NFL season, and has an every day morning radio show. Where would he have time to actually watch Haskins play?

And that's before factoring in that just because someone plays a position doesn't mean they can evaluate that position. Cough*John Elway*Cough.

Boomer hates the Giants

That's why he wants them to get Haskins. So they suck
If you ignore mock drafts (where pundits guess at picks based on need)  
Del Shofner : 1/9/2019 1:14 pm : link
and just look at player rankings for the 2019 draft (where the players are just ranked, without regard to which team might pick them), Haskins is nowhere in the top 10. Often not near the top 10. Defensive players dominate the high rankings of draftable players this year.

I realize that's not dispositive because teams do pick based on need and also over-value QBs. But it's enough for me if DG decides to pass on Haskins.

Why is it a disaster waiting to happen? Seriously, why? Don’t tell me media driven qb controversy garbage.

Why?
