With the NFL trade deadline a few days away, a new report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport shows that the Washington Football Team is willing to trade away from first-round quarterback Dwayne Haskins for the right price.
When Washington benched QB Dwayne Haskins, it started the clock on his potential departure from the organization. While the WFT hasn’t shopped its former first-round pick, this much is evident: If a team is looking for a high-ceiling QB to develop, Washington would part with him for the right price. As of now, that market has been relatively quiet.
At this point in time, with his trade value depleted quite a bit after being benched just four weeks into his second season, it would seem far-fetched to believe that Washington could receive a high draft pick as compensation for Haskins in a trade. What feels more accurate is to assume that they might be able to receive a mid- to late-round pick for Haskins, with many teams knowing that he is likely to be released this offseason if not traded away.
