As the NFL Draft nears, there are plenty of questions surrounding the top picks of the draft. One of the biggest questions of the draft is connected to Ron Rivera and the Washington Redskins — they revealed that they're not averse to drafting a quarterback in spite of drafting Dwayne Haskins in the first round of last year's draft.

Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network talked about the possibility and which QB the Redskins will select with the second overall pick. Rapaport revealed that there are two players the team is extremely interested in. Ron Rivera is revealed to be very high on Tua Tagovailoa but is not averse to taking Chase Young with the second pick as well.

The Alabama quarterback gives Rivera plenty of reasons to pick him with the second overall selection. He's shown in his three years with the Alabama Crimson Tide that he's an extremely talented QB who can throw with the best of them. Before ending his season due to a hip injury, he had 2840 passing yards and 33 touchdowns to his name. He has the vision and arm strength to pull off incredible plays for the Redskins if they take him second overall.

However, they could also go with Young and give Haskins one more year in the pocket before making any decisions. Young is a phenomenal pass-rusher who finished his collegiate career with 32 tackles, 21.0 tackles for loss, and 16.5 sacks. He's a defensive anchor the Redskins would love to build around, and his potential to be one of the key figures in Washington's locker room is high.

The Redskins could hardly go wrong with either selection. It will be up to Rivera and the rest of the Redskins front office to dictate the direction they'll be going with in 2020.
