KDIGGZ Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 The good news is smart money is on both of us being right. Quarterback success rate in the NFL is something around 19% of those drafted. Agree to disagree and wait to see how it turns out. Well there's that are there's also:- not a lot of successful short QB's - not a lot of successful QB's from spread offense - not a lot of successful QB's who were walk on - not a lot of successful later round QB's (possible mid to late round pick) Add to that what you said that 19% make it in the NFL. I haven't heard that stat but if that's true I'm taking my chances on someone tall from a pro style offense in round 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) I don't think they lost because of Mayfield. But I didn't see any wow from him tonight. I thought the bigger wow throws came from the walk on 3rd stringer on the other side. Some things I like about Mayfield but I didn't come away excited to watch him again. That was literally the first time I have watched him play. Edited October 7, 2017 by GunnerBill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 He can really wing it but he looks very small. And he made a bunch of bad decisions while scrambling. I havent seen a ton of him but he's no top 15-20 pick. I don't believe for a second he's 6'1". He looks smaller, or shorter, than Brees.

YoloinOhio Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Mayfield is a complete QB. The completions he is making aren't "system QB" completions, they are big time throws. Plus, he changes plays at the line as he sees fit. Most college QB's can't. hes not tall but I think he has a Brees/Wilson comp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 I’d never draft a Big 12 QB with the hopes of him being my franchise guy. Defense is non existent in that conference.

thenorthremembers Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 (edited) TBD reasons for not liking Baker Mayfield: Hes a drunk He wear his jersey too short Big 12 Quarterbacks dont play against good defenses Hes Johnny Manziel Only reaaons not to like Baker Mayfield: Hes short He plays in a spread offense Meanwhile Ive read people tell me how great Lamar Jackson is. No crystal ball but Mayfield has been incredible to watch this year. Best Quarterback in college football.

Manziel was a scramble first quarterback that rolled out constantly and played sandlot football. A majority of Mayfields throws come from the pocket and the ball is out quick. Not at all the same player. Similar height maybe but Mayfield is a pocket thrower. Mayfield has been held to a different standard. He grabs his nuts and he is classless. Rosen wears a f**k trump hat and people rave about his social awareness. Give me a break with the fake outrage. Please go on and tell me how classy Brett Favre was.

Manziel also did it against SEC defenses when the SEC was LOADED. Baker is doing it against the Big 12. Let’s not pretend Johnny wasn’t the player that he was. We don’t need recency bias to downplay Johnny. He was the best college player that I’ve ever seen. With that being said, I love Baker. He is a playmaker and a bro. That swagger has long been lacking on this team. Baker would be a welcome addition. This QB class is going to be good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouds Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) The lazy comparisons to Manziel remind of the lazy comparisons folks made about Von Miller being the next Maybin, you heard a lot of that garbage when we drafting that year. Mayfield's a stud, wish we land him, we probably won't. Edited November 19, 2017 by bouds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
