If they wanted to groom a backup, they could have. But they really need a starter. Not saying Allen is that starter, but I think he has a better chance than Rudolph.

Yeah, that was pretty dumb. I know Bucky Brooks had him in the first round of his mock draft (one of them) and maybe a couple other NFL.com guys. And there were several that had him in the 20s.

Brooks had him going 12 to the Bills because of fit for the culture. Also nuts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrEpsYtown Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 It's obvious to pretty much everyone that this guy was a 3-4th round pick. All I kept hearing on this board was how the Steelers or Patriots were gonna go get him and I kept saying ...sure...maybe in the third. And here we are. The Steelers essentially replaced Landry Jones with a younger version of himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Good for Mason, great situation. It was fun watching him in college the last couple of years. I started this season really hoping he'd take the next step and become a top talent, but it just didnt happen. Still would rather have him over Jackson if we got locked out of the Big 4.

26CornerBlitz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Neither Rudolph nor Jackson were options at 12 for the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means our staff uses common sense and rational thought and understands values and projection. Beane does not seem like the type of guy who will reach.

Zerovoltz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I posted all over this board that I thought Rudolph would go in the first round....clearly you can count me among those that got that completely wrong.....so.....to offer some hope to the fans here who don't like Allen....you can all rest easier now knowing that I have been calling him a bust for months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it turns out he DID get taken with the 12th pick....of the 3rd round! Wilson got picked in the 3rd, some people drop. This happened because 5 QB's taken in 1st round. I know NE was interested too for Brady's backup. Looks like Pittsburg is good for another 12 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullBuchanan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 3 hours ago, Logic said: First, I was only commenting on the notion that Rudolph was somehow a 1st round talent. He clearly wasn't. Second, I love how people always trot out Brady, Wilson, or Prescott, as if that's the norm. The vast, VAST majority of later round quarterbacks fail or, at best, amount to career backups. Always pointing out the .1% of exceptions doesn't make it any more likely that late round guys are going to succeed. It's a little bit more than 1% 11-12 teams (~35%) this year will have opening day starters that were not first round picks, and that's been pretty much the standard for the last 10 years. Among the better QBS you have Wilson, Cousins, Carr, Garappolo, Brady, Brees. It's not exactly the prescribed route, but it's far from a wing and a prayer.
