Bucky Brooks: The Book on Josh Rosen


Recommended Posts

I can see the Giants taking him. It simply makes too much sense. 

 

The Giants havent drafted in the top 5 since they drafted Rivers in 2004; before that 1996. A winning franchise like the Giants rarely ever drafts this high and now has a chance to reset for the next 15yrs by taking a blue chip QB simply by staying put. Eli plays one more season and Rosen starts in 2019.

Book on him is simplest of the top four. He's a good player. Not great. Negligible star potential. Most likely to have a long unassuming career. Matt Ryan/Phillip Rivers ceiling.

 

That all his good stuff.

 

His bad makes him a gamble.

 

Not a leader. Won't carry team on his back. Might not be willing to go extra mile. Varied interest outside football. Flaky personality. Might be sulky. Willis McGhee lifestyle.

This makes a ton of sense. And I can well imagine Beane and Gettleman having had a conversation where Gettlemen told him Rosen was their guy and, after thinking Darnold and Rosen are gone after 2, Beane and Co. just don’t see enough separation among the other top prospects to justify a big move. If the guy you want is gone, it’s not a bad idea to let the draft fall to you. The QB frenzy is going to result in several more highly ranked blue chip talent dropping down, after all.

What price are you willing to pay? Any price too steep?

  For the guys who say move up at any cost they seldom are willing to show their cards on that because they don't want to be called out if it all turns to crud.  It's easier to criticize others than take a stand and deal with it when it does not work out.

Not for Matt Ryan type play for the next 10 yrs. Whatever it takes

Which of the Fab 4 are you looking to land? One in particular? Are you convinced they're worthy of the price. 

 

If one of these 4 turned into Matt Ryan you wouldn't take him?

So very true.

Wait until Beane teases them with Jerry Hughes and the #12 pick!
