You think teams will trade up to 3 for Herbert?
Yes, I do, not because of NY, but because someone will try to get in front of the chargers, Chargers may want to prevent that.

This draft going to be nuts.Yes, I do, not because of NY, but because someone will try to get in front of the chargers, Chargers may want to prevent that.
I agree. While I like Tua at 5 and would have no problem with the Dolphins trying to move up and get the first pick and drafting Burrow, I won’t be upset in the least as long as they get a player who can come in and make an immediate impact with their first pick. If it’s not a QB, I can live with that.If Burrow and Tua go 1-2 then a good player will get pushed down. Not sure if we'd take Herbert of move back but life's not over at that point. Still would have 14 picks to help build the team up.
Speculating the Redskins would simply draft Tua at two changes the consideration from would the Redskins prefer Tua over Haskins to would the Redskins prefer Tua and his risk of injury over Haskins + Young.The question is if you had the choice between a healthy Tua and Haskins as your QB for the next decade, who do you want? While the Redskins might just be meeting with Tua to up the ante for a trade with the Dolphins or another team. They might also be meeting with him because the new coaching staff might not be sold on the idea that Haskins is the long term answer at the QB position.
Even if the owner pushed for the team to draft Haskins last year, that does not mean he isn’t smart enough to see that a healthy Tua is a far better QB than Haskins. With a new coaching staff in Washington they are not under the same pressure to make the playoffs this season that the Lions coaching staff is supposedly under. So they could draft Tua and trade Haskins after the 2020 season is over.
While I think the interest the Redskins are showing in Tua at this time is more about trying to get as much as they can for the second pick in the draft. It also would not surprise me if after meeting with Tua the Redskins decide he is a better option going forward than Haskins and they end up drafting Tua at 2.
It will be interesting to see where Tua does actually end up being drafted.
If the hype continues to build ESPN might want to charge PPV money for this event. Could make a killing because you will not want to miss the first 10 selections. There could be 5 trades and 4 Qbs taken in the first 10 picks.
