(TM* pending) At least now he has more time to work on his serve and volley. He could probably do a great Djokovic imitation. Except Djokovic can actually play his sport at a high level. .

blacklabel Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Haha I was digging thru some random cards today and came across a rookie card for old Rosen. I looked at it and said, aw man, wish it was the other Josh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god the Bills didn't draft him. I still recall watching the draft with a bunch of guys and when the pick was made, saying to the guy next to me “Not the Josh I expected “ Glad I was wrong!!

Success Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I remember draft day - I'm usually one of the fans who trusts the front office, and was all in on whoever they picked. So I was fine w/ the Allen pick and got behind it. But I do remember thinking that Rosen was probably more of a "sure thing." It's crazy when I think about that whole draft now. I thought Darnold would be amazing, and lamented that we couldn't get him. Man, did things work out. Beane deserves all kinds of credit - I doubt even he saw what Allen would become, but he not only picked the right Josh, but the right QB from that entire draft. Which was one of the most hyped QB drafts in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't feel too badly for him tho, he has earned nearly $19 million for doing nothing. Not as impressive as Jamarcus Russel's almost $40 million for doing nothing, but not far behind. At least Russell started for a while. Set for life, doing nothing- God bless America…😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll admit to not liking the pick either but I think I said words to the effect of "hoping for the best" afterwards... seems to have worked out ok...

Steptide Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 He really wasn't THAT bad in Arizona. Rosen, Mayfield and Darnold have fallen prey to bad coaching and poorly run organizations. Not that I think any of these guys are or could be as good as Allen, but I definitely think had the bills picked any of these guys, they would've been more successful under the bills front office. Either way, I'm glad we got allen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Man it is so hard for me to understand why a guy that had that much talent in college can't take the jump to the NFL . We've seen it before with others like Losman, EJ & others here in B/lo i guess it's the coaching & how they put people around them as rookies to progress . I'm so glad the Bills have gotten that part figured out it kind of makes you wonder if he could have been a different player if he had been given a different path I wanted him to be the Bills draft pick when he came out i am so glad i'm not the Bills GM that would have been another disaster of the Bills !!

Now we all pray to the altar of Allen. I got to say i think it was the Local Radio personalities that formed a hive mentality together and persuaded you all in B-lo that it was the wrong pick, leading up to the draft. I wasn't listening to them much and thought nothing of it and was excited based on his highlight reel and Mel Kiper having him #1 overall at one point on his big board It wasn't really a National opinion that the pick was all that bad at 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As bad as the "nine mistakes" comment was in retrospect, I can almost admire the guy for his belief in himself. The part about thinking about pretending to be happy though, that's it. That's the part of his personality that made me believe he was going to trouble in a locker room. It went hand in hand with his pre-draft political comments and how he would debate anyone who disagreed with him. To be that much of a d bag and thrive as a Qb on a pro team, you gave to be really, really, really good. Is this a veiled reference to Aaron Rodgers?
