Thats what Finlay seemed to imply on the 980 report.
Gruden thought the team needed pass rush help and drooled over Sweat's measurables and speed and thought he could be a difference maker.
And he could turn out to be one.
My point there is in a season where he has to win now we can start Sweat raw as he is and play Jimmy Moreland quite a bit but it would be a severe setback if Haskins had to play?
If Gruden wanted a proven rusher they should by their logic traded the pick for a veteran to go all in for 2019.
Gruden talked about the protection calls at the line of scrimmage being a potential issue for Haskins.
Ok, but last year Sean McVay had John Sullivan make the line calls to help Jared Goff early in the season.
There are ways to overcome these issues and bring the talent out if you are creative.
Gruden seems to want to be handed a capable offensive unit so that he only needs to worry about matchups and play calling.
The development of the players seems to be someone else's responsibility.
It seems clear to me that McVay was major in the development of Cousins into a starting qb.
