It is very unlikely that a team will consider Heinicke a QB1 because he has never played more than a quarter in an NFL game in which he did not have a significant injury. He is not durable enough to be the No. 1 guy, but he has shown that he can be a highly productive QB2 when called upon in a game.

He is too injury prone to be a #2. He seems to get hurt every time he plays. Granted he has a great skill set to be a qb in the NFL...durability does matter.

While that has some truth to it, if a decent OL can give him some protection he can get them some lead and doesn't have to risk like that in every game and the chances of injury go down with it. TH is tough kid he will be fine with a decent Line guarding him and he has that elusiveness to him so he isn't gonna need that much from the OL.

The Redskins have one of the best OL. You cannot protect your QB consistently and over the entire game.

That is my point. TH isn't a stare down and take your sweet time QB so if a team can put a decent OL in front of him he can get the things done and if the OL is one of the best he can do better things with even a sub par WR core.
