    If Mayfield goes #1 I think we're screwed. 

     

    Allen going #1 was great. Darnold going #1 was fine.

     

    If Mayfield goes #1, I think it's more likely than not that QBs go 1-2-3 and we'll be in serious trouble. 

     

    It all now hinges on the Giants. Do they trade out to us, do they take Darnold or do they take Barkley. UGH!

    Once the players/ media started this drivel, everyone had the right to talk on the issue. Including the Prez. I imagine your response would be different if he had supported this nonsense. Or if the previous guy had. 

     

    If Obama came out in support of their free speech rights you'd say he was overstepping and go into meltdown. Phone in to Hannity and talk about how he's Gaius Octavian Augustus.

    While all y'all are salivating over who we'll "get" or who Beane will "select", all you're really doing is perpetuating the idea that we can judge, bargain shop and compare young men based on physical traits like hips, arms, chest, jumping ability, speed and agility.

     

    It's a meat market mentality and now we all sit in front of the screen and watch a Hollywood atmosphere (cameras, red carpets, interviews, fancy clothes) as young men (black, white, Fiji islands and latinos) get "selected" by "the man". I don't put Beane or Pegula in this category...they get a pass. But guys like Dorsey, Bellichick, Gettleman, Jerry Jones and coaches like Pete Carroll, Andy Reid and Mike Tomlin are choosing men who will be forced into service for a team or city for whom they may not wish to work.

     

    Next thing you know, they'll be checking the players teeth, or making them carry loads of bricks on their backs with some goofy reason like "we need to check the teeth because it helps us understand their hygiene practices" or "carrying bricks on their back is a sign of their ability to carry a team when they are down in the 4th quarter".

     

    I feel bad for these young men. They don't understand the symbolic nature of what they have gone through. The first thing that happens when they get "selected" is they put on a team hat....talk about branding. It's ridiculous. I probably won't even watch and I would suggest if you have even a rudimentary understanding of "human rights" you would do the same.

     

    Peace out!

     

    The Draft has truly driven us all insane lol

    I made a reference to Newton NOT because there are striking similarities, only that I think McBeane (with their Carolina history/connection) could see elements of Allen's abilities (size, arm strength, athleticism, and escapability) that Newton possesses, to varying degrees (less arm strength but clearly more athleticism and size).

     

    Didn't even see your post was mainly Twitter people I'm subbing on a message board. This Draft has driven me up the wall and I can't wait for it to be over.

    All aboard the Allen@5 train. Chooo choo. Watch a bit of him instead of just mindlessly bashing because you want YOUR guy. He is very much an option and should be. 

     

    We have watched him tf? 

     

    And on another note where are these Cam Newton comparisons coming from? Allen is a really good athlete but not the freak that Cam is/was and Newton dominated the best conference in college and led his team to a National Title. Josh Allen has looked poor v Mountain West teams

    Just my opinion but:

     

    Josh Allen > Patrick Mahomes

     

    I know I will get flamed for this comment, but just my honest opinion based off tape. Maybe I am a "projection" guy like Kiper, but i see big things from Allen a few years down the road. Reminds me a lot of Ben Roethesburger.

     

     

     

    Mahomes does everything you think Josh Allen does well better

    It's obvious there's a huge sway between what teams see and what fans see with Allen.

     

    Baker is never going to grow 4 inches.  Rosen is likely going to need protected with a higher risk of injury.  Allen profiles as a big rugged QB who'll be on the field and who has the arm to make plays down field like Luke / Cam / Big Ben.

     

    Frankly for me it comes down to the price I need to pay.  If It's just #12  and two picks between 53-65, I pay that price to get any of the "Big 4".  That leaves us with pick 22 for an impact defensive player or legitimate prospect on our OL and still with picks in each round remaining.

     

    Josh Allen broke his collarbone in 5 different places and that was the second time he broke it and has 5 screws in it. This is the same injury that Rodgers has been dealing with and ended Romo's career.

     

    He's also suffered from two serious shoulder injuries but why is Rosen the one who gets called brittle?

    I admittedly don’t wish for the Bills to take him BUT I would love to see him do well whatever he goes. He has really been bashed throughout the predraft process (not just here - everywhere!) more than any qb I can remember. I feel bad for him because I know he will get booed when he’s drafted. He seems like a great kid and will root for him to succeed wherever he lands (unless it’s our division)

     

    This is what makes it awful. He's such a nice kid. I want him to succeed because the NFL is littered with bad QB play and it makes the games unwatchable but I do not want to be the team that takes a chance on him.
