Alonzo Highsmith explains why he flipped from Darnold to Mayfield

[YoloinOhio]

The Rosen comments ?

 

[Kelly the Dog]

That's kind of a ridiculous article. Someone tells him he should go ask Rosen's girlfriend, then he doesn't go ask her, but he thinks that's a bad sign? I am personal friends with both Troy Aikman's college GF of several years and Aaron Rodgers college gf of a few years, they are both awesome women, and I wouldn't take their word for whether they were good guys or not, or whether or not it was a good idea to draft them.

[george c]

What happens when there are other alphas on the team?

The mojo crap is fine if the Browns are desperate for someone to lead that perennial loser, but to think one popular frat boy will make the difference in a mans world?

‘Then, what happens when the interceptions pile up and the whispers start?

I can tell you this...I know people who know Rosen personally, not one of them says anything positive about him as a person.  They all say the same thing, he is a total deuche and has been for years.  And they know even more people who know him and again say the same thing.  There are a lot of people who just flat out don't like him, and its a pretty well known thing here around LA.  

 

Thats my issue with his character.  He's a fake tough guy competitor.  He sulks when he doesnt get his way.  Even in his post draft comments he talked about how he was mad he didnt go in top 3 then tuned out the rest of the draft with plans to fake a smile.  He's mentally weak, self absorbed, and seems to care more about himself than his teammates.  Baker on the other hand is a true fiery competitor that people rally behind.  

 

Who knows what happens in the future, but I felt Baker was the best QB prospect in the draft, and Rosen would be the last of the big 4 drafted.  And in the end, thats what happened. But none of it matters at all anymore, all that matters is how these guys do on the field.  And while Rosen reminds me more of Jeff George, Jay Cutler, and Ryan Leaf in terms of his personality and mental make up, it doesn't mean I am right about it.  But its concerning when so many people are turned off by him and teams need to research how to "manage" his personality and "get through" to him.  

 

I think the biggest risk with his personality is how he will handle the inevitable adversity he will face as a young player.  I dont have much confidence he will do well with it.

I live in LA too and know a bunch of serious UCLA fans and most of them loved him, and don't think he is a douche at all. It depends on whether or not you think a guy that speaks his mind is a douche. Not to mention that it was a fact that Kelly, Thurman, Andre and Bruce were all douches and egomaniacs coming out of college and well into their careers.

[PirateHookerMD]

I think its interesting to know how they had them ranked. I don't think its cool to **** on a kid after you pass on him.

Even after getting Allen, Beane still won't give you the order of how he ranked the QBs, which is fine. You want everyone to believe you got your guy.

[YoloinOhio]

Looks like the Browns won the offseason 

[Alphadawg7]

Just now, Doc said:

Yup...the two guys he reminds me the most of are Jay Cutler and Jeff George.  Guys who had all the tools but personalities and mental make up just weren't there.  I think those guys are his ceiling personally, and thats not a bad career per se, but also not exactly the bench mark you look for when taking a QB top 10.  Neither of those guys really put what they needed to put in to be great either, something else thats questioned about Rosen...his desire and love for the game to be great.  

 

I wouldn't have been upset if we drafted him, even though I would still have the same concerns.  He still has a lot of upside like any of the top QB prospects did.  But he was the guy that I felt had the most risks of the top 4 between this issue and the durability concerns.  But now...F him, he isn't a Bill hahaha.   Go Allen, F Rosen.

Bean has said that they had a few guys they liked and would have taken. Im sure Darnold would have been the guy if they had the first pick. 

[Kelly the Dog]

And Highsmith shouldn't go around badmouthing kids in college, he was one of the Miami Hurricanes who wore army fatigues to the Fiesta Bowl National Championship game because they thought they were warriors, then got embarrassed and lost to Penn State 14-10. Miami may have had the best team of all time and were punks.

I am sure there are a lot of people who think highly of him...but the point is, he has created a divide with his personality, where you didnt have that with the other prospects.  So that alone adds a layer of risk.  

 

Again, all the prospects had pros and cons, not just Rosen.  But the reason people dont like him isnt because he speaks his mind, its his me first attitude that people see in him.

He worked his ass off, was fearless under the rush, and got murdered on and for that team. Never did a thing selfish on the field. Was VERY prepared, super smart, studied film. The "selfish" is just stupid criticism.

And yet others dont feel the same.  So theres that.  And 5 teams in the top 9 picks who could use a QB, 3 of which drafted one, also passed on him.  So theres that too.

Don't feel the same about what? Name one time that he was "selfish" in a game or that affected the team. He was the complete opposite. Abused his body for the team.

I know, right? 

 

" Highsmith did lots of traveling to prepare for the draft. “I was at an airport,” he said. “UCLA’s volleyball team was in front of me. You heard so much about Rosen. He’s this or that. We all know how people talk. “So I asked one of the volleyball coaches, ‘What’s Rosen like?’ He said, ‘Aaaaa, you should probably ask his girlfriend. She’s one of the players. She’s over there.’ “I’m like, ‘All right coach. That’s good enough.’ “I don’t know what all this means, but there was something about him that bothered me.”

 

Literally "something about him that bothered me".  If this is the best effort of a high-level NFL FO scouting executive, the "right hand man" to the GM, I gotta say I'm kind of under-impressed here.  Maybe it's a good thing for Green Bay that Dorsey "lured him away"

[PirateHookerMD]

As someone nervous about Allen but on the train, I don't love hearing they had him 5th...

Kevin Cole, who is one of these PFF type data analysts, talking about it's too early to give grades or badmouth draft picks before seeing these guys play, tweeted,  "If you're at the blackjack table and someone hits on 16 with a 6 showing you don't say, "let's wait to see how the hand plays out before saying it was a bad decision"

I too know people who know Josh personally as I live in Orange County and am very close friends with a former bruin (now in the nfl). People don't like him for 2 reasons: 1. If you are dumb, he makes you feel stupid, 2. If you are smart, you realize Rosen isn't nearly as smart as he thinks he is. 

 

Look, the wonderlic isn't exactly a direct measurement of intelligence, but it is relevant. I am 100% confident if you asked Rosen before the wonderlic how he would fair against Darnold and Allen, he would assume he would destroy them in any intellectual endeavor....alas he did not.

 

Ultimately, I am not sure how much his likability matters. I think there are a plethora of borderline narcissistic/jerk quarterbacks like Rosen in the league. Some struggle (Cutler and Ryan Leaf) some flourish (Cam Newton and Aaron Rogers.) If Rosen isn't great, his personality will be a huge problem, I guarantee it. If he is a pro-bowler, he will be like Lebron, an egomaniac, but it won't matter.

Actually, you're wrong. Rosen would know, as I do, and you should, that the Wonderlic is not a good measure of intelligence.

 

And if you live in Orange County you would also know you are surrounded by 90% USC fans who of course hate him.

it sounded "highsmith" had him 5th, at the end of the season. Not sure how he had him come draft day. Also, sounds like Dorsey had Allen higher.

I disagree. Wonderlics, just like SAT/LSAT ect., do have a strong correlation to IQ. However, your excuse does sound like something Rosen would say.

 

Also, I live in Newport Beach, so it is actually 95% USC fans...

[Adam727]

So the Browns who were supposedly considering Allen at #1 overall actually had him ranked 5th (or lower) behind the other top 4 QBs.  And Arizona who we supposedly had to outbid for Allen at 7 wasn't willing to part with even one 2nd round pick to move up for a QB..

 

I think I need to stop reading football related articles for a few weeks.  I keep waiting for the disappointment from the draft to wear off but articles like this one don't help.  

 

I really hope Beane turns out to be the smartest person in the room and makes all his doubters look stupid, but it feels more and more like there weren't many GMs other than Beane that thought very highly of Allen..

Oh, I'd talk to 'em.    I used to get all sorts of good gouge that helped me better manage people who worked for me from their SOs.  I wouldn't stalk them or call them up or anything off-bounds like that, but if I called to speak to them (this was before most people ditched landlines) or they were trying to reach them away from their desk at other numbers we had, I'd be friendly and let them talk.  Not that I'd take it for gospel or let myself be told anything too personal, but sometimes things said would go "clickclick" and fall into place with something I'd noticed or be "hmmmm, so that might be why that assignment didn't work out too well".  Just stuff that helped me be a better manager and help people succeed.

That's why it's so weird to me that this guy was offered basically a chance for a casual chat with a Rosen girlfriend and he passed it up.  I wouldn't take her word for whether he's a good guy or not and certainly not ask her opinion on whether it's a good idea to draft him, but it would be a source of insight from someone ID'd as close to the guy.

I think that is right.  They asked Beane if Allen was their first choice and he declined to answer the question.  Leads me to believe that Darnold was their first choice.  I don't imagine Mayfied was ahead of Allen too, but you never know.  Clearly Rosen wasn't.

 

I give kudos to Beane for not lying and saying that Allen was first on their board when he wasn't.  It would have been easy for him to lie and say Allen was first.  I respect people who shoot straight and this was an instance where it would have been easier for him to lie... and he didn't.

 

I have really been impressed with Beane and McDermott. Not just their football moves as far as the roster goes, but also the straight forward way they conduct themselves.   For the first time in a long time, I feel like we have a management team that can be successful.  I'm optimistic for the future.

What bothers me is that there is an insinuation made in public about a prospect that shouldn't have been made public. There is no need for someone from an organization to "hint" that there were questionable personality traits that factored in to why he wasn't selected by the Browns. It seems to be unfair and unprofessional. There was no need for it.

 

Especially because of the position it is certainly understandable why a person's personality is considered when selecting a prospect. His personality is different from Mayfield's and the other qbs he was vying with. If his less than warm or congenial personality is a reason which contributed to separating him from another prospect then so be it. There's nothing unfair about it. But what is unfair is making a public aspersion  on a player when it wasn't necessary. That to me is unprofessional.

I'm assuming the issue was the volleyball coach had nothing good to say, which seems like it would be a red flag. He's probably asked other sport coaches before and the input was at some level useful to him. It even seems this particular coach would have more contact with Rosen since he's probably around the volleyball team a little more often.

All I got from this article is that Highsmith has been smacked in the head so many times he can’t tell the difference between Evander Holyfield and Mike Tyson when he tries to name drop when attributing a well known quote.

You know, I’m starting to wonder.  I was convinced he was the guy for us at 7 and I’ve been pissed about it since.  And I tend to agree with the notion that these supposed character concerns are made-up and overblown around draft season, and Highsmith’s knife-twist seems unprofessional and unfair.

 

But yet... I’m starting to wonder.  Something about these stories is starting to stick with me.  I suspect there is more that Highsmith didn’t say.  It does seem like Rosen just isn’t very well-liked, regardless of what his left tackle has to say about it... 

 

There is something there, I think.  

[BadLandsMeanie]

Well this is a good thread for me. I'm starting to see that something isn't right here. There is something different.

 

As has been mentioned it is outside the bounds of professional, or even adult, behavior, for Highsmith to have said what he did. And it is the same vague, no substance, non-specific whispery kind of gossipy stuff that implies that they secretly know more, but won't say. We have some poster or two in this thread with the same sort of thing. Never specific. Never a verifiable event. Always just the "If you knew what I know, you wouldn't like Rosen either".

 

But we got guys like Jameis Winston who had way worse stuff alleged and also worse stuff that was proven, who went #1. So besides the stealing and alleged raping he was a heck of a guy in college I guess.

 

I don't want to land on Baker especially but he was indeed drunk and did indeed run from and get arrested by the cops. Everbody loves him, and he goes #1 overall.

 

Joe Mixon here actually broke some poor girl's face. He is very strong and women's facial bones are not as strong. He hurt her bad. This was hushed up until it leaked out much later.

I guess besides things like this he is a joy to be around, right?

 

 

 

Josh Rosen on the other hand is so bad that his presence is near intolerable. But unlike the others, and unlike nearly every other college and NFL star,  who grow so used to having their misdeeds and behavior hushed up or ignored that some few even wind up thinking they can get away with murdering people. Josh Rosen is exposed as a trouble maker before, during, and now after the draft. And the evidence we get is this. He had a girl, in a hot tub.

 

 

He had an F Trump hat on.

 

He is inquisitive of his coaches and wants to understand the game. 

 

These are the specific charges against him. Everything else is whispers which I have to tell you, nearly always means lies.

 

But even if they are not, what is so different about Josh Rosen that he catches all this heat and EVERYBODY else doesn't? Even when they hurt people. Why is that? What is going on here? It seems very, very odd to me.

I don’t think anyonr was afraid of drafting Rosen because he is a “troublemaker”, they were scared off because he is a jerk. If you are phenomenal QB, you can be a jerk and still lead a successful NFL team. But you have to be great; will Rosen be good enough to overcome this, we will find out.
