Not sure on the odds of recurrence - i remember reading Pitta dislocated his hip a few times and it basically ended a promising career. He also has missed time with high ankle sprains that he had surgically repaired so... There's definitely a checkered injury history there. He’s had two tightrope procedures - one on each ankle. It is worth noting that those aren’t required surgeries, they were done to get him back on the field more quickly, I look at them as elective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 If I was running the team, I would absolutely draft Tua. Quarterback is THE MOST IMPORTANT POSITION IN FOOTBALL. Does anyone here really mean to tell me that they'd rather have Dwayne Haskins than Tua?! Furthermore, this is likely Ron Rivera's LAST head coaching opportunity in the NFL. Why not draft a near sure thing at QB to ensure that the tenure is a success? Besides, while Chase Young is an elite pass rusher, it isn't like their cupboard at defensive line is barren. They have Montez Sweat, Johnathan Allen, and Daron Payne. They can also take another high quality edge rusher with the 34th pick if they so choose. All of that being said....it wouldn't surprise me one bit of defensive minded Ron Rivera took Chase Young or traded down for more picks to speed up the rebuilding process. I don't think it's wise, though. If you don't already have a franchise QB and someone you believe to be one is there at your pick, you take him. Haskins has done nothing in college or the pros to make anyone think that he's good enough to justify passing on a talent like Tua. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but if Haskins is Haskins of 2019 in 2020 they can pick Young and still get a shot at Lawrence or possibly Fields. That might be playing in to the thinking. I would not be stunned if they took Tua. If they don't and Haskins stinks they have to stick with his stinking and not be tempted to bench him for a vet.

You are spot on but coaches can't help themselves. Flores should not played Fitz but felt he would lose the locker room if he played the worse player.

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I'd say Rivera is going 99.9% Chase Young, he's a special talent and they are very hard to come by. That DL would vault into the 49ers territory. So many smokescreen stories happening in every organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Hope so but dont care, Redskins are bums. Maybe, maybe Ron can turn them around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty75 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I don't see any chance that the Redskins will draft Tua, they already have Haskins and they should take the time to develop him, i think that he has potential. If they don't draft Chase, it would be so much stupid imo... they have the chance to build a scary dline ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I hope they are serious about Tua. I’d rather not see him land in Miami, or at least have it cost them some extra picks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALF Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Tua Tagovailoa clears four-month medical check on hip http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001105648/article/tua-tagovailoa-clears-fourmonth-medical-check-on-hip If Redskins are unsure of Haskins it would make sense to take Tua . Easier to find a DE in free agency if passing on Chase Young, just hope it's not Shaq 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, imo he could make Snyder millions upon millions of dollars. You’re using logic and reason, but forget this is Dan Snyder we are talking about.

BillsFan17 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 This is Dan Synder, I sincerely doubt he admits he was wrong one year removed from drafting Haskins. Moreover, this is very different than the Cards, who brought in a specific coach, knowing full well Rosen wasnt going to fit his offense. The wheels were in motion once they hired Kingsbury to find a QB more suited for his offense. Insert Murray. I know Norv Turner's son Scott is now the OC in Wash, I dont really see him having the type of offense that absolutely has to have one type of passer over the other. Washington would honestly be best suited getting a kings ransom for the pick from the Dolphins and only drop back a couple of spots. They are likely to still get one of Simmons, Brown, or one of the top OTs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 After what happened in AZ. last year when they traded their 1st round QB Rosen to the Fins i'd say anything is possible Haskins wasn't Rivera's pick & he's the new boss so we won't know till we know !!

Mat68 Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Both. I think for the right price they trade down. I also think discussions about Haskins are real. Tua is a better Qb than Haskins. Rivera would want a leader on offense and that is Tua not Haskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 I have to doubt that Ron Rivera would have committed to Haskins in agreeing to take the Redskins job. My guess is that he told Danny that he'll give Haskins a chance to compete for the job, but he will not commit to Haskins. Therefore, I believe the Redskins will take a QB with their first pick and I doubt there is much Miami will be able to do about it since Cincy will not trade down as they also need a QB.
