Since you love Josh Rosen I thought you'd appreciate this

 

Ouch! But it is the very reason I never wanted Rosen, I think he is one good hit from being done with his football career.

I don't care if Y'all call me dumb or non-football savvy but Josh has always been my guy. Him and Baker. I honestly thought that the Browns would take Baker at 4th and the clue was Tyrod for the 3rd rounder. Both guys can run the same offence. Similar size, mobility. Tyrod will teach this guy to be more serious and professional. It's a perfect fit. As for Josh, He and Baker were the only 2 I felt that have the "it" factor. He's no dummy folks. He will get more accurate even if PFF beats it thinking/hoping he'll flop. He hasn't had enough time with great coaching and that is a plus, in a way, but I feel like the most pressing issue is getting him great coaches. I've been more worried about Daboll than the QB we were getting in the 1st round.  BILLEIVE IN THA MCBEANE PROCESS...even Daboll I guess.

[HappyDays]

My heart is all in, my brain is not. I won't be 100% on board until he proves it on the field but I'm excited to have a legitimate top 10 QB talent in Buffalo for the first time this millennium.

I'm not sure if you saying Josh Allen is injury prone, and I'm not trying and delegitimize your viewpoint. I do think that concussions are a whole other sort of injury when it comes to contact sports. Rosen may have entered 2017 healthy, but he certainly didn’t finish it that way. During his junior year in 2017, Rosen suffered two concussions in less than a month. As we’ve seen with many other players, subsequent concussions in a short time period raise a major concern about a player’s long-term health. Research suggests that players who experience more than one concussion throughout their career are more likely to experience an additional concussion at a later date. This effect increases as a player suffers more concussions. Rosen isn't worth the risk of a high 1st round pick with his concussion history combined with his much maligned attitude.

Baker needs to listen in order to learn. Tyrod may not be a strong enough personality to make him listen.

I'm pointing out that Allen has a repeated serious injury history that can't be dismissed and since Rosen was selected with the 10th pick in round 1 your point on Rosen is moot.   Hopefully Allen doesn't try to take on LBs in the NFL.

I am s glad that we have a redneck and not some "boy who cried wolf" social justice warrior. Allen has a strong arm to handle the wind they say.  While I say the wind may have given Rosen a concussion.  I also say there are enough snow flakes in Buffalo during December.

Agreed you have to play smart if you want to last in the NFL. Too many QBs wait too long to slide. I wouldn't have spent the 10th pick on Rosen, it's the 10th pick in the draft, especially with players like Vita Vea still available. I'm just saying that a list of 3 injuries one of them is from his sophomore year in High School and another had him missing 2 games is not as damning as as 2 concussions in less than a month. Just sayin....

And nf still I question that the Bills have the offensive coaching staff in place to develop Allen.

 

This should be everyone's biggest concern, imo.

Yeah, that's an awkward pairing. Will make for an interesting QB room in Cleveland.

I noticed you didn't mention 2015 with regard to Allen.  Vita Vea?  Are you serious when all ARZ had at QB is Bradford and Glennon?  Terrible idea.

[Wily Dog]

I am an Allen fan and have been leading up to the draft and was ecstatic when the Bills chose him . Now it seems that a lot of the true professionals  in football  are saying they were and are Allen supporters. I took a fair amount of flak for my position but everybody is entitled to their opinion.

I didn't mean to convey that Vita Vea was a good fit for the Cards. I was simply naming a highly touted player that was still available when Rosen was chosen. I would rather have Mason Rudolph than Josh Rosen. I honestly believe that time will show that he was the better value pick. If I was the Arizona GM I would have traded down like Baltimore did and still land a QB. I do not think that Rosen will be a pick that the Cards will be bragging about in 3 years. Mason Rudolph may be one that Steeler fans are crowing about.

Thank goodness for Cards' fans you weren't in their war room with any clout. Yikes!

I was a fan of Nate Peterman while he was throwing interceptions in Los Angeles, as he was the QB under center. That being said, I was heartily relieved when Taylor started the second half. If Peterman had started the following game, I would have been his fan then, too. But, I wouldn't have been happy about him starting.

 

I'm cautiously optimistic about Allen. It's weird how polarized the usual suspect talking-head pundits seem to be about him. If I were to believe what they're saying (I don't), he's either going to be the next GOAT, or the next JaMarcus Russell. And after watching his game tape, I feel like I can see the valid points to both sides. My fear is that he lands somewhere in the middle, hangs around a little too long, and becomes as polarizing to the fan base as so many of our past quarterbacks have been.

 

But, for now, I'm a fan.

Time will tell my friend. Feel free to throw it in my face when the Cards are riding high on Rosen and the Steelers are still searching for Big Ben's replacement (give it 3 years). I'll happily bow to your superior football vision if that comes about. Until then let's get back to supporting our team and watching the cracks in the Patriots organization expand

I really don't know how anyone had him graded out as a 1st rounder... Seems more like a guy you'd take in the 4th since he's such a project. 

 

Really? What do you know grading?

 

Please.....

Lamar Jackson 

[Buffalo86]

He wasn't my first, second, or third choice for QB, but I've decided to leave those decisions up to the guys who get paid for it, completion % be damned.  There's something to be said for the Bills getting the #1 guy on their list.  This, of course, is not to be confused with the Cardinals, who merely lied about getting #1 guy on their list.  And... I know, I know... watching youtube videos, particularly the Senior Bowl, has given me some added optimism.  I'm in.
