The only positive scouting report I’ve seen on Allen

He coached at colorado state for 3-4 years. It's in the same conference as wyoming, and i'm suggesting homer-ism.

He also coached his own ass right out of the NFL here in Buffalo doing absolutely nothing with the Offense.  This assessment is about as reliable as a meth head showing up for work.

The hate for Allen on this board is insane, it borders on derangment.

Get over it.  He's a really bad draft pick and most pundits in this country have said that for a long time.

 

It's gonna remain like this around here until if and when he can start to prove his detractors wrong.

Meh, those same pundits had him going no worse than the top half of the first round.

Phil simms on wgr 550 had Allen as his number 1 ranked qb. He also said alot of scouts and gm did as well. He watched many Wyoming games and felt the offense was not qb friendly. Was asked to throw alot of deep posts and seam routes. Not as many screens as mayfield did. Plus wr were terrible. 

Pete prisco also had Allen as number 1 qb.

I have been against Allen because of his 2 years of community college and 2 years in the 7th rated conference.  He hasn't proven that he can process things at the high college level/NFL level and hasn't proven that he can do tight throws against NFL speed.   I considered it too much of a risk and looking at the first round, we would have been better to take Rosen and a lineman (or two).    If Allen is able to learn to the next level,  we are in good shape- I didn't think it was worth the risk.  Now that he is here, he has my full support.     By the way, I was wrong when I was saying that the McBean's would never go the way of a QB at any cost.  They did.

These analyses always make me shake my head.   

 

It's like saying LeBron would make a great jockey if the damn horses were bigger.    Well, they're not, so don't try and make him a jockey...

Or this one

The final outcome on these reports are not exactly horrible.. He could do really good or really bad.. Fact the matter is.. no one really knows

including you, Including the bills staff...

 

Trust the process

NFL evaluators have tended to like Allen more than the fans and internet scouts. There has been a disconnect between the two sides and over time one side will be proven right. 

 

Personally, I have liked Allen as a prospect but I admit to have a tendency to place a higher emphasis on “tools”. Not my top choice (Darnold) but I would have taken him over Rosen. I believe that in time he can be a Big Ben type Quarterback.

Most pundits have him going in top 15. Practically everyone does. How does that make for a "bad" draft pick?

NO the blind acceptance of Allen is insane..

 

We've been down this exact road before and I don't have the patience for this anymore

 

Yeah I will give him a shot but my optimism is in the dumps. Now I have to wait till mid preseason to see if I actually should have hope because I am not doing that wishy washy its gonna be ok BS like I do most every year
