I have no problem with the Bills moving up to get Rosen at 6, if he is there but I dont want to overpay at 6 when you basically have no teams between 6 and 10 who need a quarterback. Dont overpay when you can afford to be patient.

I agree. This is basically OBJ for a 2nd round value. Coleman has done nothing in the league except be hurt.

So the Colts didnt trade us 3 because they didnt want to be outside the top ten, but they trade us 6? Also to get to six we shouldnt be giving up two 1sts. 12, 53 and a 4th.

This. And Manziel really isnt a known entity on the field. His off the field situation was bad, but his sample size on the field is relatively small. I would assume a 25 year old former 1st round pick as a project is a little more enticing than a 30 year old quarterback who has started close to 60 games. They are totally different situations.

100% agree with you. Allen is a lot closer to the type of passer Dorsey and Jackson have historically coveted. I think he is the wrong guy, but I do think he is 1st on the Browns board.

Do the Browns really need him? If I were the Giants I wouldnt trade him for anything less than a 1st round pick and let him sit out if he wants to use this power play. I think the perfect landing place for this guy is Seattle.

Rex's defense wasn't as good as Schwartz's, not debatable. The end result for each of them was 15-17, so I wouldn't say either of them was necessarily killing it. The mistake was not finding a quarterback.

Well you said yourself the guaranteed money was 49.5 million, he had 43 sacks while he was here. Is a sack worth a million dollars? Personally I wouldnt pay any player other than a quarterback 100 million dollars, so yeah I'd say it was both bad and pointless.

Irwin James..is NFL.com for real with this garbage.

If you had the choice between taking a guy that could start day one, and one who needed to sit a year to just get to the point of the 1st day starter, why would you ever draft the guy who needed to sit?

I think its about time for the Bennett brothers to call it a day. The act is getting really old.

As with everything about Allen, I feel like I am watching something different than everyone else. I didnt think he looked good at all.

Exactly. You end up with a bunch of 6'5 230 guys who cant play.

Hard to tell but to me his workout seems to be slower than the others Ive watched.

Just rewatched the TCU game from last year. Seriously just a passing clinic against the 16 overall defense in college football last year.

Sharing that with my family on New Years Eve is something I will never forget. It was 100% worth it. Not sure what the argument here is. No one knows which quarterback from this years draft, if any, will ever be the type of player who can lead a franchise to a Super Bowl. You also have no clue yet if we actually missed out on a quarterback. Having that second 1st rounder was essential.

You truly never know, but just based on the quarterbacks MacCagnan and Bates have drafted in the past, I dont believe Allen is their first choice. In fact I think they'd be likely to take Mayfield over him. If we want Rosen I think we have to get up to #2.

Havent listened in awhile. What is his reason for saying this?

He was never good. Take a look at the statistics below. Any change after the Arizona game, either good or bad was negligible. Prior to Arizona Game Yrds/Gm TD/GM INT/GM Comp % Y/A TD/INT Diff 182.8 .78 .71 58.7 6.6 +.07 After Arizona Game 183.4 .82 1 61.8 6.5 -.17

You're hitting the nail on the head when talking about the 3+ hours. I love watching the games, however when the bye week hits it always amazes me how much I get done by not watching a game. Additionally, I cant do the late games. Maybe I am in the minority, but I wish they could start the Monday and Thursday night games around 7pm rather than 8:30 or 9pm. I understand the conflict with the West Coast but maybe a double header is the answer, I am not sure.

Because he doesnt think Lamar Jackson is good?

He's not anywhere close to the type of playmaker Cam is. He is near 20 pounds lighter and quite a bit slower. There are plays Cam can make that guys like Allen just cant. Guys like Cam and Clowney are freaks of nature. Don't get me wrong Allen's arm is ungodly, but as a playmaker he doesn't live in the same league as Newton, and I think the comparison is wrong. Just my opinion, doesnt mean I am right.

Can people please stop saying Josh Allen has "Cam Newton Like Playmaking Ability?" Newton is far and away the most freakish athlete to ever play the quarterback position. He is the size of a defensive end and had a similar 40 time to guys like Jamison Crowder or Michael Thomas from New Orleans. Allen isn't even the athlete Colin Kaepernick was coming out of Nevada. A fair comparison for Allen in terms of just being an athlete is Carson Wentz, but in no way does he compare to Newton in that realm.

My favorite college football player ever. Amazing to watch last year. The touch on his passes down the seam of the field is second to none. That being said I dont think the Bills draft him. He is my #1 quarterback, but historically Beane and McDermott have been a part of teams who have drafted quarterbacks 6'2 or taller with lower accuracy percentages.

You're correct. I read the OU report last night and they mentioned Kubiak was there as a Sr. advisor.
