WildCard Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 I honestly don't understand how teams can prefer Darnold to him. I just don't. As much as I can't stand this show, this is insanely accurate here Quote
Drunkard Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 If AJ McCarron is as good as Tyrod they basically broke even. It's possible but unlikely. I certainly hope they aren't pinning their hopes to McCarron because if they are and he stinks they need to be fired. They damn well better draft one of these QBs. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 I honestly don't understand how teams can prefer Darnold to him. I just don't. No real injury history, more mobile and is more of a yes man in the QB Room. After watching that video I would absolutely love it if the Bills Traded Up to get him. Are McDermott and Daboll Ok with a player with his intelligence and willingness to question why things are being done in a certain way. My fear is the answer is no. Quote
WildCard Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 If Josh Allen succeeds, his GM will have outsmarted basically all regular humans and the entirety of math itself https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2018/4/24/17271686/josh-allen-nfl-draft-2018-stats-analysis-comparisons Quote

WildCard Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 That's actually a really good article. Completely eviscerates Allen, sure, but it's spot on from every angle/defense you could have for Allen Ben Albright just tweeted out it's Darnold at #1. He then deleted the tweet Quote

LGR4GM Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 I think they could get a guard later who is good enough. Quote
WildCard Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 I think they could get a guard later who is good enough. I just think they'll want to protect their new golden boy as much as possible Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 Replace Chubb with Nelson and I'm with you If any team is dumb enough to take a guard over a pass rusher, it's the Browns. Quote
WildCard Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Posted April 24, 2018 If any team is dumb enough to take a guard over a pass rusher, it's the Browns. I mean they have Garrett already and Nelson is a monster Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 I mean they have Garrett already and Nelson is a monster And all of the best defenses have more than 1 pass rusher. You don't pass up an elite rusher for a guard, no matter how good. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 Liger is right, it’s Darnold and Chubb for the Browns, they want a dominant pass rush. Quote
Taro T Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 If any team is dumb enough to take a guard over a pass rusher, it's the Browns. :lol: (It's funny because it just might be true. :lol: ) Quote

JujuFish Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 I recall that that happened, but I'm still not convinced that Drew would have ever won a SB. Wasn't the defense ridiculous during that stretch? I know Drew finished out that season throwing under 200 yards 3 times in the last 4 weeks (including 106 yards once), as well as going 16 of 30 for 189 yards, 0TD, and a pick in a potential win-and-in game with the hottest team in the league around him against a bunch of backups. I don't see that guy winning a SB under any circumstance, personally I had to look it up, but I had forgotten how mediocre Bledsoe was that season. He didn't have a single 300-yard game, and failed to go over 100 three times (bizarrely, we went 2-1 in those three games, winning both games by 24+ points). He had less than 3,000 yards on the season and had 16 INTs to only 20 TDs. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 He knows he's the best. Surprised he took some shots at Baker and Darnold right there. Didn't even mention Allen :lol:Because Allen isn't competition. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 "He's got a big, strong frame. He's got a big arm. He's competitive. He's tough. And he is not a polished passer at all. His accuracy is very inconsistent -- it's well-documented. But I think Dorsey kind of likes the tough, gunslinger type of quarterback." Of course, the downside on Allen is greater, too. There were a lot of factors in the 56.2 percent completion rate over his college career, but it's a concerning number no matter how you slice it -- and it shows up on tape. "You're not going to fix that in 10 weeks or two years," an offensive coordinator said. "If you're not accurate, you're not accurate. There's an element of processing and anticipation that I think he lacks. But I think he's got a big arm and somebody's going to over-draft the guy because of that." Allen isn't strictly a product of impressive workouts, though. I remember one executive telling me in September that this guy at Wyoming is the best QB prospect since Andrew Luck. (That exec predicted again this past weekend that Allen goes No. 1.) Another scout who has studied Allen closely offered a comp to Dan Marino -- if Allen keeps improving mechanically. "You're talking about a kid who's got a rocket arm who's more mobile than they give him credit for," the scout said, "and if he fixes the feet, the accuracy is going to come -- 100 percent, it'll come." http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000928334/article/2018-nfl-draft-qb-rankings-execs-like-sam-darnold-over-allen Quote
