This class could be MAJORLY overhyped.

 

What do you think?

 

And does this force the Bills hand to sign Cousins since this class could be unimpressive?

 

Nope it is a very good class. And will go down as the best class in a long long long time

of course that is is those declare that people thibk will like Rosen, Darnold, Jackson etc

I'm underwhelmed with the "hyped" picks of Darnold and Allen. Darnold is way too inconsistent and makes too many turnovers against Pac-12 D's.  Allen scares me.  He has the size, but has under-performed in a very weak conference.  However, I think there are some good QB's in this class.    My top 2 are Rosen and Mayfield.  Although I doubt the Bills draft Mayfield.  I haven't watched enough Rudolph to have an opinion.  Luke Falk's numbers intrigue me.  70% completion 2 years in a row.  Anyone like him?  Likewise Furgeson also impresses me from a numbers standpoint, but have not seen him play.  

 

I'd grab one of these guys in 1st or 2nd: Rosen, Mayfield, Furgeson, Rudolph (perhaps). 

 

And then grab either: Falk or McSorley in a later round.

Sam Darnold didn’t look good vs Ohio St at the Cotton Bowl. 

and all season. 

He is a product of draft culture. They need to hype the draft early and often. 

 

If anyone bothered to watch him play you see a kid that needs a lot of work to make it in the NFL. 

 

I hope Beane and team can see through the hype.

Josh Rosen will be in the hall of fame...if he wants to be. Not sure if he does. Best QB prospect since Andrew Luck. But he might get a concussion and get freaked out and about brain damage and quit. He doesn't need the game, has money, highly intelligent, other interests. Does he have the desire to be the best? What is his motivation? Everyone needs something to drive them. If you watch the Elite 11 program (it's on YouTube) he said he was using football to meet people and pay for school. He was the #1 QB in the country and surprisingly he didn't say "I want to be the best ever." I think if he gets picked by Cleveland he will lose interest and flame out and do something else with his life and be just as happy

Yes but you know when it comes to QB, this league drafts upside

The league drafts QBs and spends big on them, the Bills are in a different league not knowing it's a QB driven league and OBD makes excuses to draft them early. If you don't buy a ticket you will never win.

We'll be drafting anywhere from about 15-22 (didn't do math beyond a quick wins and losses).  I don't make a move to the top of the draft but I'd be looking into that 10-15 slot, if there's a QB there I like.  

Perfect spot to take Rudolph

Always next year's class, it is why we never have a potential franchise QB. Tannahill isn't all that but is better then nothing while Miami looks for better, in fact he even got them to the playoffs once. QB driven league and some fans will never pull the trigger on one because no one ever is good enough as a prospect. This team is forever doomed if they continue to avoid it.

Fans have nothing to do with whether or not the Bills draft a QB.

No I am sure they do not hear the fans yelling for change at all...SMH

 

Fans buy tickets and if OBD opens there eyes they will see fans have waited long enough, if a QB is not taken this draft they will have a revolt of fans wanting this new staff fired by the end of 2019 IMO. Fans buy tickets and when fans want something they will let OBD know it. Remember the booing at TC? Remember Chan sticking with Fitz even with fans wanting him replaced, well fans won and Chan Fitz got fired.

Remember the last time we reached for a QB?  We got EJ. Let's not be hasty.

SMH, of course stick to the biggest fail even though they still got Kiko and a cheap backup out of him for his full contract. Didnt they also trade both to top it off.

 

Goes to show how bad OBD is at drafting QBs when EJ is the best they can do.
