Here we go with comparing stats from today with the nearly 40 year old college stats again.  Please make it stop.

I could say the exact same about all the negative Nancy boys on the forum as well. Please make them stop!

He did show really good accuracy at the senior bowl.

Shhhhh... Haven't you heard? The kid will never be able to throw an accurate pass and will be a complete bust.....

I'm cool with the Allen pick...

 

I probably would have taken Rosen, but I also get why they took Allen instead.

 

That said, people need to stop comparing his comp% to players from 2 generations ago. It does not help your case.

 

Just go with, as Mayock said yesterday "projection over production", where you realize he had inferior talent and coaching and believe you're staff can mold him. He does have the highest ceiling of anybody in this class, but also the highest bust potential by a mile. There is no way to spin that horrendous comp % positively. It's bad, but hopefully he improves his fundamentals and becomes what they drafted him to be.

Its' a message board.  Fans "whining" and expressing their opinion is what it is made for.  I would rather see the "whining" then see useless, non-applicable college stats from 40 years ago brought up again.

Couple things..

 

Comparing college stats from 30 years ago is hilare. 

 

And I see a guy in Kelly who improved each year. Something Allen didn’t do..

What point are you trying to make comparing QBs whose playing years are over a generation apart?

I don't like the Allen pick over Rosen but I'll have to convince myself it was the correct move..  I trust Beane and McD so we'll see.  On the upside I'm hoping he turns into a more athletic Big Ben.  On the downside Allen's ascent into the Top 10 reminds of Jake Locker (who i hated at the time)...and turns out my dumb opinion was more accurate than highly paid Tennessee Titans GM and scouts.

It’s directly relevant.  The Anti-Allen gang contends that (1) Sub-60% completion in college equals NFL failure, and (2) QBs with poor “accuracy” (as measured by completion percentage, apparently) can never improve. The Kelly and Favre college stats seem to directly contradict both points.  The burden on is on you to show why those stats don’t mean anything.   Just saying “they’re old” doesn’t cut it.

Pulling out stats from the Carter/Reagan administrations and thinking it proves your point <<<<<

Guess what? Completion percentage is calculated in the exact same way it was in the 1980s. Just in case you did not know that.
