iinii Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Yes, there is a possible scenario where he could have been the first overall pick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 In the 2013 draft where Geno Smith and EJ led the pack I certainly think a player of Allen's profile would have been a top 5 pick. I think in most draft classes he isn't viewed as the top 1-2 selection at QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbRiddick Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 He did consider entering the draft last year but apparently got some advice from Wentz and his coaches and decided to play an extra year. Imagine how raw he would have been if he'd declared in 2017? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VW82 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) I think it would be very unlikely he'd go number one overall in any draft. Too many question marks and not enough success coming out of college. Allen profiles as the third round guy who a few teams fall in love with and take in the 10-20 range of the first round. He's Kyle Boller. There's someone like him every few years. To be clear, I'm not suggesting he's going to bust or won't be any good, just that he's another QB in a long line that entered the draft with superior physical attributes but not much success at the college level. Those guys almost never go number one. Edited September 30, 2018 by VW82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) I think if he entered last year, he would've been a 3rd round pick at best. He benefited greatly from hype leading up to the draft (there's always 1 guy who shoots up based on size & arm strength), but you also have to look at which teams were where, and who needed what at that same point. In hindsight, I think every team who even semi-wanted a QB would now have opted for Mahomes without question. The guy is having a record-breaking year, and its his first season as a starter. Yesterday on ESPN, all the "experts" were talking about earlier favorites for MVP candidates, and Mahomes was the consensus #1 for all of them. So would Allen be taken before Mahomes? No. Would he be taken before Watson? Unlikely. But if he strings together some more pretty good games, the hindsight people might decide he could possibly go before Watson. 9 hours ago, whatdrought said: I think he goes # 1 in most drafts that weren’t stacked. Probably would next year (although Herbert is well liked). Will Grier will probably be a 1st round pick too. 8 hours ago, Seanbillsfan2206 said: If my uncle had a a vagina, would he be my aunt? I dunno, it's 2018...does he also identify as your aunt, or is the vagina just there for show & he actually identifies as your uncle still?

FeelingOnYouboty Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 If his 2017 season looked like his 2016 season he’d go #1. Heck if he came out after his 2016 season there was serious talk he was a Top 3 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norcalbillsfan Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 We will see how Baker does, but people are kinda sleeping on Barkley cuz hes not scoring TDs, but if you really watch him play hes a game changer, he breaks the first tackle attempt amost every single time and falls forward for 2 yards every time. And he catches as good or better than any rb in the nfl. Hes a special talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
