Yes...actually wildly entertaining to be honest hahaha watching all the panic.  The same people who screamed to give up 3 first round picks and 2 second round picks to get Rosen that was still on the board at 10.  Maybe they don't know as much as they think and should just be patient and see what Josh Allen does on the field before they declare what his career will be.

This is reasonable.

 

but right now, if you had to bet your house on it, would you bet on Allen being a star or a bust?  It’s so hard to predict college qbs transitioning to the pros but a low completion % is very troubling.  And it was in a low level conference.  

 

I think they fell in love with his size and arm and this BS that it snows every day in Buffalo.  I hate this pick but I’m rooting to be wrong.  But there’s so much evidence that he is going to struggle to make it.  His ceiling seems to be Joe Flacco.

Love his deep ball... but without a deep threat or protection it’s a hold your breathe and hope for the best move.

 

fingers crossed 

 

He won't start for at least another year.   They will have to rebuild the offensive line in the meantime somehow.

I don't like the pick, I wanted Rosen, but stop making things up.

Allen wouldn't have been available @ #12.

That's just a fact.

Arizona was trading up, Miami was ahead of us.

Rosen and Allen would have been gone.

Oh yeah, just a fact? Ok :thumbsup: In fact you are making up your own "facts" thinking he would have surely been gone.

Beane effectively fired himself with this draft.... All chalk, not much research ... Prepare to WEEP over all the 2nd round GOLD this bone-head erased.

Not much research? Is that a joke?

 

You think Beane just half assed this decision?

I think Allen could turn out to be the perfect fit for Buffalo and the weather. If he can sit behind McCarron and learn for a yr or two. He's big, smart and has a cannon. It's a risk but Cleveland took as great a risk in my opinion with both their first round choices. I love Edmunds. Wouldn't have dreamed we'd get our franchise QB and one of the 2 premier  lb's. In the draft. Home run.

Allen and Mahommes are the same type of prospect. You are kidding yourself if you think otherwise. 

 

Mahomes was a better prospect.

 

Exponentially better college production, better accuracy, more moxy. 

 

List any trait except height, and Mahomes did it better than Allen.

Well.

It's a fact that Rosen or Allen would be gone, since AZ traded up and took Rosen.

Miami was very high on a QB as well, which is why AZ leapfrogged them.

So while nobody knows for sure, your assumption that Allen would still have been available @ #12 is much less plausible than my scenario.

You're "confused" about Rosen being a prick?

 

Josh Rosen, on getting drafted by the Cardinals: “I dodged getting drafted by the Browns, Jets, AND Bills. I’m the luckiest man on earth.”

 

He is, and will continue too be an !@#$.

 

That's hilarious. I would justifiably feel slighted as well. He dropped because he's been under public scrutiny for so long. I will root for Allen, deeply, and pray I'm dead wrong.
