Many on here suggest Allen isn’t too bright or can’t read defenses...this suggests otherwise. 37 on the Wunderlic, pro style offense, took 45% snaps under center, mobile QB who can make ALL the throws....I’m happy with the pick. Good video, Allen seems to be a great kid with a great arm and brain. It shows why he was the #1 QB on the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Wyoming assistant went to scout another player (a TE maybe?) at Allen's JUCO. Came back and said "let's look at the QB". So you're saying Josh Allen will be the Michael Jordan of the NFL? Should I start on my Three-Peat Rockpile Review? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Applying it to live action is completely different. He is definitely sharp though. You just had to go there didn’t ya ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the pick you can yell at me right now if you want. i had said to anyone that asked that this was the guy that scared me the most out of the "big six". yes, i was even more comfortable with mason rudolph (at 12). but as soon as they drafted this kid, he was immediately my number one guy. he seems like a good kid, he has loads of talent, and i am all in. i am actually getting pretty excited about him being our qb. and just for the record, i was one of the few bills fans NOT at the comeback game.

BillsSbSoon Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Great stuff. I could watch x's n o's like that all day. Rosen was my guy but im warming up more to allen, we have no choice. He does seem like his football iq is high. His arm power is on another level we know that. Preseason cant get here fast enough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally will support any player unless a player is holding out while under contract or has been tagged and refuses to play under it - it is your union which agreed to rules. Same for players who while being paid will play soft ("run to the bus") because they have a new contract coming up; if you are that worried talk to team about putting you on list where you do not get paid and you do not play. I am wishing he has good luck. I see the potential but not see the coaching staff to develop the potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transplantbillsfan Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 This is awesome! Thanks for posting!!! There was a moment in there you could see Cousins was a bit surprised at Allen's football acumen. My main hope is that the kid can clean up his mechanics and footwork so he can be consistently accurate. That's obviously the biggest worry.

I was bent. Admittedly. But I will say the comparisons to Losman, Manuel are just lazy. And wrong. Allen is way more grounded and humble than JP ever was. No ones going to break his leg in practice. And Allen is way more aggressive then EJ ever was. He may have been all over the place with this throwing motion but he was obviously carrying Wyoming on his back. I think that says a ton and that’s being undervalued. Edited April 28, 2018 by bobblehead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong. I also hope you are wrong. In fact, the people who want you to be wrong numbers in the hundreds of thousands! At least! It’s become personal for many, I’m sure. We may start a club with a secret handshake, all hoping you are wrong! OK, I’m worried too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Who Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I rather despise ESPN, but if they were smart, which they aren't, they'd get Kirk Cousins to do pre-draft segments with qb draft prospects. More interesting than Russell Wilson, imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prickly Pete Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Kirk Cousins looks like he is trying very hard to emulate Jon Gruden in this. I had never seen an interview with him. He's pretty annoying. I'm glad the Bills didn't chase him. 6 minutes ago, Dr. Who said: I rather despise ESPN, but if they were smart, which they aren't, they'd get Kirk Cousins to do pre-draft segments with qb draft prospects.
