The problem with sliding is that while you wait for the player to fall to your pick, another team may jump in front to grab him. Damned if you do (give up picks to trade up), damned if you don't (loose out to another team that trades ahead of you)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't wait but so long before jumping up if that scenario were to unfold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the Texans did last year with Watson and Mahomes, they were willing to wait as long as both were there, once one went they hit the phones hard.

Domdab99 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 If you want Rosen, go get him. Waiting for him to slide seems like (in poker terminology) fancy play syndrome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see teams being scared as heck on Rosen's durability prospects and see him as having a clone career of Bradford. I think one of the draft shocks might be Jackson going before Rosen.

I don't think they have the coaches or mentors in place to develop him. Even on the Patriots he would be a 2-3 yr project Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean his ceiling is well stated as is his floor, and sure that ceiling makes ya think its worth the risk. However, my main concern, its widely considered FOUR guy, not just one or two. I could see if it was just say, Baker and Allen in the entire class and you had to basically take Allen because hes what the class offers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not buying the Allen to the Bills. If you get to a position where you have a choice between Allen and one of the other big guys; it doesn't make sense to take all the risk of Allen for what would be hopefully an incremental improvement a few years down the road. I think Darnold and Rosen have been the targets all along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think any team that gets Allen is going to be in a hurry to get him on the field. You use a top pick (or many top picks in our case) and you want results, I get it. But he is so much farther back than someone like Rosen it's crazy. He will just continue to do what he's been doing and it's a good way to play yourself out of the league.

But tell me...if it were you, who do you take? And why? Rosen is the best, by far.for many reasons. Smoke clears, Rosen#1.
