RUMOR: Browns to take Wyoming QB Josh Allen #1 Overall per Peter King

if a normal top 5 QB has a 50% shot of being a franchise QB, I'd say Allen has about a 10% chance.  it's not that he's bad, it's that he's such a project that nobody knows so to draft him that high is insane.  he might be very good but there's a much better chance that he's bad like he has been his whole life

 

I heard a great analogy where an analyst compared him to an NBA prospect when they came straight out of high school. It's purely a projection based off his athletic ability, and the odds are overwhelmingly that he won't work out, but in 3-4 years if everything goes right in his development you might have a total stud on your hands. 


He said in the NBA, that type of risk made sense because elite players are so valuable because they're on the court 80% of the time. He said in the NFL, where there are so many players on the roster and QBs are such a risk to begin with that he didn't think it made sense for him to be such a high pick.

We don’t need him to get to 12. We’re moving up 

Gotta have a trade partner.

Do not project the fears of what your team will do onto mine.

Not doing that at all, I'm intrigued at what is going to happen just like all of you. What's being said on here is being said in all message boards of the top ten teams.

I legitimately think you're taking Allen if he's there at 3.

We will find a partner.

Please god no!!!! I know you guys would love that!

The only guy I don't see you taking is Rosen. My guess at your board is Darnold, Allen, Mayfield in that order, and I think their relative comfort with all 3 is the reason they were willing to move up early.

Agreed, I think the Trump thing with Rosen is the reason we will not take him. Which sucks because he is a great qb

Take it for what it’s worth. If true then wow, the Browns are still the Browns. What a mistake in the making. 

 

UPDATE: Broadcast by some social media pages as fact and some more reputable sources as more of a strong rumor. 

You guys are crazy, Allen is a once in a decade talent, smartest QB in the draft, comes off as a hard worker and good kid in interviews, Bills fans are clueless on Allen for some reason. If you watch a couple of his games you will see that his accuracy is great, he just makes a lot of lower percentage throws.

Whoever the Jets take will be locked in the basement like the ones before him. They like to play old journeymen and are scared as **** to play anyone they draft.

I think we can all agree with this F&*! Brady and the Cheats. I hope they have a horrible draft and the 'Phins do something stupid; I really hate both of those teams
