Josh Rosen: will he want to play here? ESPN discusses

He will be fine. Media is full of it. He also never said he didn't want to go to Cleveland. He basically said sometimes it's ok to drop in the draft because the right fit is more important an anything. The media turned this into "he doesn't want to go to Cleveland." It's all media driven BS.

Bruschi is an idiot. If there is ANY chance Rosen has intimated he doesn't want to play in Buffalo, that will have been fleshed out long before they draft him. 

 

Did I mention Bruschi is an idiot? He should think more before spouting nonsense.

Good post, but you forgot to mention that Bruschi is an idiot.

Sounds more to me that Bruschi is speculating and trying to plant an idea in the kids head. Notice how he says Cleveland first then basically keeps saying Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo. 

 

Tell you this much. Rosen has more then just a football career in mind. Being drafted and refusing to play is just bad business. Now on the other hand, he's a smart kid. He sits back and sees the name that Jim Kelly made for himself helping turn around the Bills and make 4 Super Bowls. Rosen has to see this as an ultimate opportunity. He comes here and wins a Super Bowl? He's not only a Super Bowl champion...he's a legend until time ends in Buffalo. He now going to be seen as the guy that turned around a team that is considered a perennial loser. Investors love that.Fans love that. Josh Rosen winning a Super Bowl in Buffalo is best for business.

  As far as Rosen hinting that he does not want to play in Buffalo that can not be proven or disproven.  If he is listening to his agent he should be keeping his mouth shut as negative comments might make teams shy away from drafting him affecting his slotting which could cost Rosen and his agent money.  As I said before he might take a chance in an interview with Beane to throw it so the Bills might not draft him.  At that point it would be his word against Beane's word  if nobody else (who would be impartial) is in the room to verify it.

It's not that dramatic. If Beane or anyone gets a whiff of an anti- Buffalo attitude in an interview, they won't waste their time. But nothing this kid has said publicly about where he wants to play suggests he won't want to play in a certain place. People point to his quote about going later in the draft if it's a better situation, but taken in context, that's a totally benign comment.

It's nuts how twisted that one got, and then ran with as gospel. 

Nuts, but not surprising. Like Buddy always said, everybody is trying to rob the same train. 'Tis the season for information warfare.

The way the Bills are run today, I'm confident Rosen would be happy to play here. If this was the Buddy Nix/Chan Gailey years, y'know, maybe not. 

Bruschi is trying to connect dots that don't exist anywhere but in his tiny little brain....

Bruschi is hating on buffalo.  Simple as that. 

Complaining about the weather, but he played  his career in New England?   

 

Im glad Shefter mentioned Jim Kelly and stood up for Buffalo a bit. 

 

I get why players wouldn’t want to be in Buffalo, but I think it surprises many of them.

I don't get it. Original poster said Rosen to Buffalo talk begins at 3 minutes but all I heard was that Bruschi was an idiot... sorry IS an idiot.

 

Like everyone said. If Beane & Co. are that convinced of Rosen being THE guy, then concerns such as him not wanting to play here wouldnt be an issue.

I just can't see us paying that stiff price to move up to #3 for a guy who doesn't wanna play here. Maybe back in 1983 but not now, not with this regime.

 

Stranger things have happened of course... such as Bruschi being asked for his opinion when everyone knows dudes an idiot :P

Who the heck is that guy? Seems like he is pulling everything he says out of his @$$. He is spewing a bunch of nonsense about things he has no idea about, including what's going through Rosen's head.

not sure where all this Bruschi is an idiot stuff is coming from.     hes usually right,  and  everything he said about Rosen is a potential problem.

 

not sticking up for Bruschi,  could care less about him.   just find it funny the hate for him.

 

he mentioned the other day that he loves everything the Bills have done recently and he was impressed with the past season as well as the moves this off season.

 

actually one of the few who objectively looks at teams.   dont find him to be much of a homer.

I think Bruschi is an idiot but there is some truth to what he says.  I grew up in Buffalo and hated the winter weather and the summer humidity.  I jumped at the opportunity to move to California and I would never move back there or anywhere else in the North. 

 

If the Bills sense Rosen doesn't want to play in Buffalo, if they move up, they can still draft him and then try and work a trade like Elway to Denver or Eli to the Giants.

Personally, I wouldn't want Rosen anyway. Maybe I'm just biased because I don't like pompous, self-righteous SJW douche bags, but a guy with durability concerns, average arm strength, questionable leadership, and poor pocket presence isn't the guy I want to bet the farm on.

 

He may prove to be the next Aaron Rogers, but he could just as easily be the next Kevin Kolb.

The draft process is way too long for the national media.

 

For all of its shortcomings, at least 'Draft Twitter' uses the three-month lull in actual action delving into mid-late round types. Alas, there's no real money in ESPN etc talking about a running back from Back Of Beyond State.

Yeah Bruschi is an idiot... Interesting tho. A panel of guy was asked winners and losers of free agency and Teddy chose us as a winner and said he loves the culture change in Buffalo... I was shocked.
