Haskins RELEASED 😳
Unless you live under a rock, you’ve probably heard the news.
That’s right, Dwayne Haskins has been released from the Washington Football Team. After struggling quite a bit over the past two seasons (Rookie season QBR: 28.4 and Second season QBR: 30.7) the Washington Football team is moving on from their former 15th overall pick.
Haskins joins a (fairly) long list of former Buckeye QBs who had rough NFL careers…

2021 #1 Pick is locked… Jaguars 😐
The Jaguars were gifted the No. 1 overall pick due to the Jets' incompetence. This was a franchise-altering turn of events that even had the mayor of Jacksonville thanking the Jets via Twitter. If the Jaguars hold on to this selection, it'll be obvious.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson
New York Jets: Justin Fields, QB, Ohio State
Cincinnati Bengals: Penei Sewell, OT, Oregon
