Thank you for posting this discussion.   It seems like Beane may knew what he was doing by drafting Allen. 

 

I am getting really pumped up to see Allen in action.

As much as I don't want summer to already be over with, because I live in northeast Iowa and the winters suck here, I just can't wait for the upcoming football season. The kid has all the physical tools, can he put it together mentally. If he can, we have our franchise QB for the next 15 years.

Wow, they had some strong and positive things to say. He still needs to grow, and show he can develop. But that certanly gives me hope that he can be special.

 

I didnt like the pick, but I never saw him play, just what the "experts" showed in some clips, but as I keep watching closely I get why he was the pick.

Some high praise here.  Pours gasoline on the fire of hope burning inside me.


But the fire of doubt didn't actually get any weaker.   There are legit concerns about Allen and we just don't know yet if he'll overcome them.  

 

Maybe I'm being b*ll-less in my lack of strong opinion but I'm firmly in the wait-and-see camp.

Me too. I hated the pick, but my Bills fandom is just too overpowering.

The ceiling of Josh Allen is extremely high......I just want them to bring him along right.  He needs to be developed.

The fact of the matter is that McCarron and Peterman are not much competition. I'd like to see the rookie sit for at least half, if not all year. 

 

But, it's just not gonna happen. I have a strong feeling they'll just start him day 1.

If they do.....regardless of potential we should expect a lot of growing pains and a down year.

There's a name i haven't heard in a while.    

His name gets brought up from time to time. And when it does, it’s nice to let it shower over you.

 

Oh mykidsdad!

I've been skeptical of Allen all along. He wouldn't have been my choice at 7. But it's always been easy to see why so many were enamored with him. He's a physical specimen, played great at the Senior Bowl, smart kid, etc.

 

Now that he's a Buffalo Bill, I'll be cheering for him on Sundays. I can't wait to find out that I would make a horrible GM. I feel like some people secretly hope he stinks just so they can point out that they were right about Allen. I, on the other hand, want to be wrong.

Mykidsdad, you are spot on per usual my good friend!

 

YE OLE was fortunate enough to catch this segment of the Rich Eisen Spectacular and YE also came away impressed. It sounds as though “Hacksaw” Josh Allen could indeed be THE WHIP... and that’s the fact Jack!

Josh Allen is our biggest, bestest big toe.

Can’t wait to eat some crow!   

Honestly, after hearing his story...he's gonna make sure you eat that crow, that boy is determined as anyone I've seen since Aaron Rodgers when he slid to 24.  Was told no by 900+ schools and was drafted in the top ten of the draft.  I'm not doubting this one.
