1billsfan Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 (edited) I was listening to WFAN this morning and Boomer Esiason said that he thinks the Browns and will select Josh Allen Because he matches what Todd Haley is looking for in a QB (big arm, Rothlesberger style). He also said that he thinks the Giants can not afford to not go QB and will select Sam Darnold. Gives Pat Shumer the young QB to groom behind Manning for one year. Eli Manning is due 23 million next year and ODB’s contract is going to be too huge of a deal to have both players. That would be about 40-50 million tied up in two positions. He then said that he thinks the Jets will pick Mayfield at #3. He didn’t go into much detail as to why other than he felt they were a good match. The Giants picking a QB is not being discussed much. The Bills might even have to give up a prime pick to trade up for Lamar Jackson (if they think he's a potential franchise QB) so that the Cardinals don’t jump ahead of them.

Royale with Cheese Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I would feel sorry for this first time for the Cleveland fans if they take Allen. I think though I would rather the Jets take him. I would laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnCoke11 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I have a feeling they stay at 12 and take Jackson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hemma Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 No mention of Rosen, but regardless of the desperation level, no way do I see 5 QBs taken in the 1st 12 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Rosen falling to 4, us moving up with 12 / 53 / 65 maybe a conditional 2019 2nd / 3rd is my all time best case scenario. Being able to walk out with Rosen and pick 22, one of 53-65, and the 2019 1st would be amazing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 If Darnold is there I think the Giants have to take him. I don't love him, but everyone seems to agree he should clearly be #1 overall. If this is true, the Jets jumped the Broncos for Mayfield and we may see Rosen fall a bit, which is good for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why take Jackson we just had Tyrod, sorry same run first QB that is not a pocket QB. They want a big pocket QB and Jackson is not that guy. Allen is both but very inconsistent. Allen/Jackson both projects to sit at least a full year. Rosen all day if the pocket QB is what they truly are after. Rosen is ready to fight for job day 1 or at least start by end of season.

Browns go Barkley, Broncos Nelson, Colts Chubb. We would probably have to trade to 7 or something to jump the Dolphins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the last few seasons if people trashed the Bills my go to was "They could be the Browns" The Browns are the team that I don't want to succeed before the Bills. We've had some misery over the last several years and I've enjoyed them being bad. But now, again, having the top pick and still not addressing the QB position? I would feel for them. Of course this is me thinking Allen will bust. I could very well be wrong on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s not because he is just like Tyrod. I don’t see this comparison. They are both fast. That’s it.

Some of those projects just never work and you're using a ton of draft capital, as well as burning through all the cheap years on his contract.

Magox Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 One of the things that Beane always eludes to in the sort of DNA that he looks for is that they are a "competitor". If there is a knock on Rosen, it's that he is perceived to not be that much of a competitor. By the way, Rosen and Mayfield are my two favorites and from my untrained eye would be the ones that I hope we get. But the comments from Beane is something to consider. Maybe they aren't all that high on Rosen. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen = JaMarcus Russell is pretty popular too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
