I feel like with these QB interviews at the combine, at the draft, pro days, etc...these QBs mainly say generic answers about leadership, arm talent, making all the throws, athleticism, saying their tape speaks for itself, etc, wanting to be "the best" player they can be, all that good stuff.
Haskins seems to always bring this up first before he says anything else: "you put me in any playbook, and I'll make it work" and "i take pride in my football intelligence and IQ of the game as the quarterback."
That should stand out to the NYG coaches and GM.

TTH what I'm saying is, I don't think he is scripted at all. He doesn't say generic answers like most of these guys. He gives specific examples as to what is going to make him a good player.
He said something last offseason about the fact that no one will ever outwork him and no one can spin it as well as he can.
He was cut shortly after that.
And become the fourth QB taken after Tua, Fromm, and Herbert?

Webb was a 3rd-5th round prospects. Haskins is a 1st round QB, possibly top 10 prospect. There's a big difference there. Are you really comparing Webb to Haskins?

than everyone else, Haskins seems a click slower than most top prospects.
Lumbering may be overstating it, but a concern.

He wasn't comparing their ability. He was comparing their talk.

He should have stayed in college one more year.

If he plays like he did last year this year in college he'd be in the conversation with Tua and ahead of Fromm and Herbert based on what they've produced on the field to date.
That could be correct. However, I just want to point out that we in all in the midst of a "recency high" and this high is also impacted by looking at someone performing under the most optimal conditions he will ever have.
Just doesn't seem constructive to me, you can argue that for many top QB's coming out. If you don't like Haskins its perfectly fine, but his surrounding talent shouldn't be the reason why.

If you're responding to me, I didn't mean the OSU supporting cast during the season. I mean that Pro Days are set up to make you look as good as you can possibly be. That's for everyone.
This time last year no one even knew who Haskins was. Basically same thing with Murray. Neither were considered top prospects by any stretch of the imagination. Your point about the currently discussed 2020 QBs possibly getting hurt or regressing is fine, but you're forgetting about the 2-3 other QBs who will rise up the boards between now and April 2020.

and less of an injury risk than Tua. It also doesn’t matter, either we like him enough to draft him or we don’t. The 2020 QBs have a lot to prove still, any one of them can regress or get hurt, please keep that in mind when doing these arbitrary rankings.

I'm not forgetting about other prospects. I'm addressing this notion that Haskins' supporting cast is a red flag. If its a red flag for him then it should be for Tua and Fromm as well.

I’ve always thought there was a correlation between how often Webb was quoted in the papers and him getting dumped. The only time a backup QB who’s never started an NFL game should be speaking to the media is never
Giants letting Eli down... - ( New Window )
A reasonable take but this guy was a HS QB, now a college student who has neither college nor NFL playing or scouting expertise.
The 2020 QBs may be out of reach for the Giants. There will be at least 3 teams that will want those QBs and pick ahead of the Giants. 2020 draft is a long way off.
Agree. Sometimes its the intangibles. Please point to a statement game against seriously good teams in which he kicked their asses. Not feeling it. Don;'t get me started on the level of competition in the B10.
