QB Kyle Allen traded to Redskins

not amazingly newsworthy, but somewhat interesting. Could put some pressure on Haskins
Cost them a 5

The #Redskins sent a 5th round pick to the #Panthers in exchange for QB Kyle Allen, source said. With Carolina signing PJ Walker today, this helps the QB room take shape
Assuming no Newton-Rivera reunion in old DC anymore.

So the "experts" all predicted Cam to Washington

Wrong QB, right Team.

LOL.
I wonder if they're...

..on the verge of reaching some sort of injury settlement with Alex Smith. He's eating up $21.4M in cap and his '20 salary became guaranteed at the start of the '19 leavgu year so I wonder if his timeline sin't where it needs to be and they worked something out.
No Cam, and no Tua either

you'd think.
Bad for pipedream of Giants getting Chase Young...  
KDavies : 3/23/2020 2:59 pm : link
as it decreases the likelihood the Redskins go QB. Good part is it increases the likelihood a bit that the Panthers will be looking QB.
To be clear -

room temperature is enough pressure on Haskins. Kid is sweaty.

Chances were already at zero, so not much of a reduction.

Thus the use of the term pipedream...
Doesn't change the pipedream

...Washington could still trade out...😉
I think it's a good trade for them

I thought the kid played well behind one of the few O-Lines worse at allowing pressure and hits on the QB's than ours.

This kind of reminds me of the Bob and Cousins dynamic back in the day.

Chase Young and a defensive-minded head coach in Ron Rivera always made perfect sense.
Anyone else think that they could take Jeff Okudah?

I mean they have NOTHING on the outside. They signed Kendall Fuller back, but he's best as a nickel. Same can be said for Moreau. I suppose they could kick the tires on someone like Xavier Rhodes, Ronald Darby, Trumaine Johnson or Prince, but those guys are not exactly sure things to rebound.


They may try to trade back (Dolphins?) for Okudah, but there's no guarantee he'll fall. They might just take Okudah and say "fuck it."

Or they could just take the best edge player in Young who may terrorize the NFC East teams in future seasons.
This is a smart move by WASH.

Allen played pretty well before falling off the last few games. I'm sure Rivera liked what he saw and thought Allen could be a good QB.
