Never a superstar but a guy that did his job very well. Smart player. Good character. Oddly, sounds like a McD type...lol. Happy trails Poz!

I wouldn't be shocked to see him leave Minnesota without signing a contract and making more visits.

The Lemonade cookie they have nowadays is quite spectacular as well.

Plot twist: The move to 12 is for Roquan Smith.

Dear God...no. Allen needs a lot of work. Culley's resume doesn't exactly scream QB whisperer. This is the worst case scenario imo.

I mean, that can be answered in any of the 7000 Rosen threads already on board. Take the work ethic and leadership question marks out of the equation. He has actually had former teammates speak up on that. The concussion issue...well look at it like this. How many concussions has he had? How about Darnold? Mayfield? How many have they all had dating back to high school? What happens if we draft Mayfield and he gets his eggs scrambled in 2 consecutive games? Point being unless you have access to his medical records you don't really know the whole story. You know what the media and other posters feed you. Lastly he is a potential franchise changing QB. If you are ok with him at 12 the is absolutely zero legitimate reason not to slide up and take him at 2.

I think we all kinda knew it was coming. Good signing if McD can get him back to where he was early in his career.

Bwhahahahaha...awesome...just awesomely played!

The oddity of this all...we have KCs first round pick this year, so they signed one of our former 1st. Very Fung Schway

Gruden? That you? Shouldn't you be trying to find some oline help for Carr?

But the real question is...can he hit Colt Anderson, who is likely inside the snow covered hospital tent?

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000918506/article/exucla-teammate-calls-josh-rosen-onceinamillennium-qb Here's an interview with one of his former teammates. Seems to me he's pretty well liked.

It's a viable concern. Like you said, a few years down the road it's going to be tough to fit everyone under the cap. That said I feel like he's being aggressive in this instance, but once he gets his guy under center it's easy to slow down a bit. Getting a QB, as I'm sure you know is costly. It's going to cost you either a season of having a bad football team or will cost picks/players to get there. It's fair to wonder about the future. I like to believe that in the grand scheme of things that Beane will get it right. Win now and win later is what he has preached...and demonstrated.

I hear there's a couple kids at R.I.T that basically dominate frisbee golf. Bet they could throw in the snow.

Allen is basically Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaughn.

This. I'd also like Paul Richardson. He figures to be popular though, so I'd look to Brice Butler. A really good size/speed combo player.

The ultimate smokescreen. The traded up to move picks 12 and 22 so they can combine them and get Nick Foles. ??

You mean With the 12th pick the Indianapolis Colts select Roquan Smith.

At this point it's 24-0 that the trade was good. I'd say the record speaks volumes.

I'm certain they are. But sometimes fecal matter happens and that guy you drafted doesn't catch on as quick. It's always good to have a solid plan B to go with. Also, seeing how McDermott seems to have things flow...he's not going to blindly turn the team over to anyone. Let the rookie earn the spot.

Here's the absolute best part of this regime. IF they fail, there will be zero legitimate excuses. They are getting "their guy". Setting up the team "their way". They are being aggressive and moving up in the projected best QB class in well over a decade. I believe they will make it happen. I don't think they would be this aggressive if they didn't believe that the guy they want will succeed. Feels good to make (what I feel like) are the right moves made by (again just what I think) the right people.

"In other news, the man known as 'Magic Beane' is far from done..."

Rosen.

Mine is now like this: 1. Rosen 2. Mayfield 3. Jackson 4. Darnold 5. Allen 6. White

Goff did sit, yes. Behind Keenum. I think if you take a guy high your hope is he can take the job right away. If not, you better have a good plan in place.
