cage Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 This is one of my favorite clips and this exchange happened back in April. I'm sure Kiper was doing plenty of smirking last night! He also is one of the only analysts that thought Allen should be taken #1 overall 23 9 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Lucky guess. He’s not even close to as accurate as Mayock was before going to Oakland. None of these guys are always right, but Mayock’s batting avg was better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SydneyBillsFan Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 Remember that like it was yesterday. Contrary to rumours and speculation, Kiper is a good judge of college talent and footballers in general. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 People love to hate on Kiper, but he was a major Josh Allen fan going into the draft too. Pretty sure he had him as QB1. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel get a ton right...more than anyone else What i like is the passion and confidence in his words while McShay ?? (who are you Mel Jr.- actually ESPN tried to make you a cheaper Mel but couldn't) sits there giggling like he has a clue. Obviously Mr. MCShay not a clue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob in STL Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) Great point about liking one player does not mean you have to not like another. A real football fan knows this. He is correct. 1983 draft first round - Elway, Marino, Kelly were all great HoF. Blackledge, O’Brien and Eason were all average or below. I don’t recall the media hating the other three. They had years to play and prove themselves without ridicule. Today the expectations on QBs are unrealistic. The media coverage is over the top. The media has lowered their standards to the same thing that fans tweet about or spout out on forums. They should be better than that.

BurpleBull Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) Mel Kiper Jr. Jr. at the far right seems to believe that he's arrived and can now mock the original draft analyst. Edited November 29, 2019 by BurpleBull 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan692 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 (edited) I say we just give josh the gold jacket and the Lombardi now. Why wait? Afterwords we can let him lay with our wives and the ritual will be complete. Edited November 29, 2019 by BillsFan692 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 So many people are impatient and impulsive today. Technology has given us access to more information than ever. We also are able to share our instant thoughts and emotions with the world. Those of us old enough to remember watching games before cell phones, Twitter, message boards etc can recall we just shared our thoughts with those unfortunate enough to be in the same room as us. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If both were available to us on draft night, my first choice would have been Darnold. Glad we have Josh, but I think Darnold is going to work out for the Jets.

bilzfancy Posted November 29, 2019 Share Posted November 29, 2019 How many teams are kicking themselves for not drafting this kid? I'll bet one John Elway wishes he took him over Bradley Chubb, thank you, Lord, he didn't. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
