mannc Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 same here, red flags with Mayfield and enough with the dual threat Jackson. Doesn't translate well. Too big of a chance.Which dual threat QBs do you not like? Prescott, Wilson, Mariota? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnC Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Jackson reminds me of a bigger version of Tyrod. I respectfully disagree. He has a more powerful arm but more importantly uses the whole field. As I said in a prior post don't let his sterling athletic talents blind you to his marvelous passing ability. He is still a little raw from a pro standpoint but under the tutelage of his scoundrel coach, Petrino, he is learning how to play the position.

4merper4mer Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Carr Two Sheas. Â But he has only done it once and got hurt badly at the end of the campaign. We'll see but you're probably right. That said, he was hardly seen as a sure thing as he went 2nd round. And for every Carr, there are 50 Connor Cooks. 3 years of rants just for a guy that is easily beaten out by EJ. Â I'll say this for Baker Mayfield. Every time I see his name.....just for a second.....I think there is a big prize fight coming up in Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) Jackson reminds me of a bigger version of Tyrod.Jackson in looking better in pocket so far this year and appears to be going through his progressions more.

billsfan60 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Jackson reminds me of a bigger version of Tyrod. ^This... Don't want anything to do with a QB who relies on his feet as part of his skill set. Why are RBs a dime a dozen? Because their shelf life is limited. Every time Tyrod takes off I hold my breath. I want somebody who is the face of the franchise well into his 30s. Stay in the pocket, throw it away if you have to, don't risk the team's season for three yards. I want a brady clone, not an RGIII clone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Mayfield has college superstar who doesn't transition well to the NFK written all over him imo. In a draft loaded with pro style QB's, I don't like the idea of taking a chance on Mayfield. Rosen and Darnold are pro style QB's who are adept at reading defenses from the pocket. Mayfield is a guy with a ton of physical talent. I'm just not sure how it will translate to the pro game. Beside the OSU D has been shredded by lots of high powered college offenses over the years How dare you post logic on this board! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I'm still like Darnold or Rosen. Darnold's ability to throw on the run is something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan60 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Which dual threat QBs do you not like? Prescott, Wilson, Mariota? You're right, Wilson is a known commodity at this point and Prescott and Mariota are having success right now. But what about 5 years from now. How many running QBs have won a Super Bowl? What was the knock on Tarkington? Give me a slow footed guy with great mental skills who can throw darts into small windows from the pocket every time.

GunnerBill Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I was out last night so didn't see any of the games. I still haven't watched a Mayfield game.

What I like about him is that he has got the "fire" in his belly to win that it doesn't seem like some other QBs (Luke Falk) have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watkins90 Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 You obviously do not live up to your namesake. But for today, I say what we both can agree on ... Go Bills!You take Darnold before him if both are available. Darnold is just a taller version of Mayfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4merper4mer Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Stafford Dalton Flacco Wentz Flacco is in his tenth year so you are splitting heirs. You have to be kidding me with those other guys. The obvious counterpoint to any of them is Russell Wilson. Stafford is good but costs a mint and has won nothing.

YoloinOhio Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 (edited) I'm a Moderator and I have no problem with this new thread. We have 4 picks in the first 64 and QB HAS to be at the top of the list! What's your problem? Â Go Bills! every time we have tried to start a QB 2018 thread or college prospect thread for that reason, it has been moved to the college forum. I even started a thread in customer service forum asking for at least one college thread on the main forum, given the huge draft coming up for the Bills. We have even had one in previous years. I was denied and told to use the college forum. Edited September 10, 2017 by YoloinOhio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The modern QBs all use their feet as part of their skill sets. I think what you mean is you don't want a QB who relies on his feet as his primary skill set.
