JimKellyTryouts Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Did this honestly need its own thread? I guess it's someone else's turn to make a CJ Spiller thread now, too. That's somehow relevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are going to coach this kid up we need someone who has at least done it before...... I agree with this. I don’t have a problem with drafting Allen, as long as they get a top QB coach to develop him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the old "I can" vs "I can't". "Lack of experience" vs "permanent inability". If you were a smart student who blossomed late and went to UB and did well, and then I threw you into a Harvard exam room, and you only started to figure things out during the 2nd exam, would you be mad if I said I had my doubts about you? Or would you rather I said "good, he's already figuring things out in his 2nd exam in the toughest conditions"? He did better than any QB at the Senior Bowl, and he only started to figure things out in the 2nd half. That sounds like great potential to me. Highest Wonderlic score too. Rosen is a schlub if Allen reaches his full potential. I really hope you are right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I will take the mudder of the elite thoroughbred in the end... Even though, it is tempting thoroughbred from time to time and I have my doubts that mudder can get done. I have more Duke of Argyll in me. Rosen is good fit for Sunny AZ. Allen, BFLo. I will take the Higlander over The Fop. The powder blue is so UCLA. Brown & gold so Wyoming. So what should we wager, guineas again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I wanted Rosen. All we can do now is sit back and hope the staff can develop him? Rosen had durability concerns which are valid. If Allen turns into EJ, McB will both be gone. Trust the process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 2 hours ago, dave mcbride said: I'm no longer upset and have decided to just roll with it. My approach going forward is to treat Allen as an interesting experiment given the very real huge upside. I'm gonna try and make it fun for myself regardless of the outcome. Maybe he'll be great; who really knows. Exactly where I am. Didn't like the pick at all but now he is our guy. I hope he's great. I'm on the Josh Allen train unless he goes off the tracks in a couple years. We need to give him some time. I don't expect him to play well this year but wouldn't expect that from either of the other three with this line and these WR. I expect him to start game one and the Bills to be a running team but let him air it out several times a game. We desperately need a speed guy now.

I'm itching to know if part of the reason why a lot of the people wanted rosen so much is because he said f trump. fact is every one of the qbs picked early has an equal chance to make it or bust. So it comes down to opinions formed by other reasons imho. I was all in on TT until I became exhausted. I'm all in on Allen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Rosen more than Allen but I also am good with Allen. Is that OK with you, Simpleton? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans made the right call in those cases over the Bills' Front Office.

I'll say this. This is the most competent management we've had for a long time. I hope their work pays off here. So far so good so I will wait and see.

TSOL Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Allen over Rosen reminds me of the time I chose a Chevy Malibu over a Camary. Needless to say I was car shopping again after 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Gotta give the kid a chance though. You certainly may be right but he hasn't even played a snap in the NFL yet. I get that he has red flags and I understand the concerns, but I just don't see why its necessary to rip on him when he literally hasn't even been a Bill for 1 full day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
