Spoiler!

Glad common sense won out in the end for his sake. Made no sense to stay.

Browns?

So 4 QB's in the 1st? Not one I'd even pretend to want over Mahomes?

Contract that big might come with more than $50,000,000 just to sign. |
Another QB who got Clayed.
Sad! |
I trust whatever Dorsey does honestly

Wouldn't be shocked if Alex played for one year in Cleveland so the rookie can sit a season. |

I just have to think these teams would draw the line somewhere. Surely there isn't one team stupid enough or desperate enough to let Kirk Cousins make more than $25M per year. Don't you have to draw the line at some point and say there's no way in hell we're paying that guy that much? |

They have no idea what Dorsey will do.
I don't see Darnold as a top 10 pick |
Good for the Browns. Roll the dice again baby and take him. They won't though. I promise Dorsey wants that Wyoming kid before Darnold.

Glad Denver decided to beat NY and Indy.
Can’t wait to see them pay Cousins the farm. |
The next USC QB bust in the NFL.

Stud. |

If I was Cousins I would be making the Redskins outbid everyone else. **** letting them match.

I actually think Washington just lets him walk.. maybe a lowball offer. They don't want him that bad, and their coach made it clear in his season ending presser.

---------------------- And Lombardi is the CoMo of NFL front office talking heads. That guy doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground. Him saying Darnold is #1 overall is a kiss of death. |
Quote:

I agree. Mahomed had massive talent.
|
Two scenarios I could see happening at #1:
Cleveland swapping picks with Denver Indianapolis swapping with Cleveland, Denver trades its pick for Andrew Luck. |

Don't follow college is Darnold better than Sanchez at this point coming out ? |
Darnold has the most talent from a USC QB since Palmer, but I think Sanchez was more ready for the pros.
He just had the misfortune of learning from a blackhole of suck known as Brian Schottenheimer. |
Quote:
Reid was extremely involved with the Mahomes pick, as he was with the Kareem Hunt pic. As a matter of fact, looking back on what transpired in the 2017 offseason, with drafting both of those guys, juxtapositioned with letting Poe walk, signing Bennie Logan to an $8 million dollar deal, then cutting Maclin, there are two signs of the coin happening. Andy Reid on one side (the winner!) and John Dorsey on the other (the loser!). Good riddance, Dorsey. Cleveland suits you perfectly. |
As said in planes trains and automobiles, "well, I guess you're ****ed"

Quote:
Allen is the second coming of Jake Locker, IMO. Rosen is a stud QB but from all reports, a dickhead in the mold of Jay Cutler. I've never liked this class, dating back to January 2017. |

Dorsey had ZERO interaction at Texas Tech with the admin, coaching staff and their coach, Kliff Kingsbury. Murray and Hogan were Dorsey picks and Dorsey ****ed up (as I said on Draft Day and since) in that he took Murray, who's out of the league, one pick before McCarron, who teams got into a bidding war over this past season. Andy Reid has had FAR MORE impact since taking over this shit franchise than John Dorsey and it isn't even close. |

Barkley mostly fell because teams figured out he was quite limited with talent, and Darnold doesn't have that problem. Darnold isn't a lock to go #1 overall exactly and could stand to learn a lot more at school. Having Hue Jackson develop you is a nightmare situation. |

Mayfield is the next Ryan leaf.
|
Quote:
He'll probably rattle around the league for awhile as a backup unless some team is dumb enough to draft him high and hand him the keys. |
Quote:
He’s a class A dbag and has the Ryan leaf attitude. |
The only thing Mayfield has in common with Wilson is size. His arm isn't as good, he's not as mobile, and he doesn't have any time in a pro-style offense.

You know, even though I've never liked the whole premise of denying an NFL team of drafting you, I do begin to understand the player's POV as I think about it more...
Because obviously we know that each QB who enters the league has a floor and a ceiling. Everyone talks about them in that manner. For example... Patrick Mahomes was said by many to have the ceiling of Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers. Well, that might be true, but if every single NFL team thought that they could get him to reach that ceiling, he would have went #1 overall easily. Problem is, most organizations probably couldn't provide him the proper situation to allow him to become his best self. This is why the kid falls to pick 10, where the Chiefs obviously came into play. With Andy Reid, Alex Smith, and the weapons in place on this roster, the Chiefs probably provided Patrick the best odds to reach that Favre/Rodgers ceiling IMHO. Just as Tom Brady wouldn't be Tom Brady without BB. How Eli Manning probably never reaches or wins a SB with the Chargers. How Aaron Rodgers may never be quite as great as he is if not given the luxury of development under Favre. Odds are, Darnold, Rosen, or any of these QBs are not going to max out their potential in Cleveland. Maybe not even close. So if they want to tell Dorsey to **** off, I won't blame them. |
None of these guys are even in Mahomes league as a pro prospect. Denver is going to get a piece of shit like Allen ROFL

Darnold = Sanchez 2.0. Should have stayed in school another year since he has less than two seasons of starts and this last season wasn't terribly impressive.
Rosen seems to have a little Ryan Leaf in him. Loads of talent but a self-centered asshole (seemingly). The Jake Locker comparison for Allen is apt, imo. Too inconsistent and inaccurate. The rest are meh. |

Something else to think about: Sam Darnold would be the 2nd youngest QB to start a game since the merger.
Even more reason to get Alex and have him start a year. |
Quote:

I think the Jags are the trading partner... believe I read on here yesterday they an move on from Bortles, take Alex and come out ahead on the cap. They pick late R1, so maybe they give KC their late R2? I dunno... but I think they would be an ideal place for Alex to land and maybe plan for him to play out the next 1-3 years, potentially.
|
Darnold has been underwhelming in games I watched. His O Line was poor. Less than average mobility. The NFL today needs a highly mobile QB.

Quote:
I see what you’re saying though and it is realistic. I could see a more probable situation of Nagy being hired by a team like Arizona with no QB and taking Alex with him. |

Just imagine if Cleveland had taken Patrick or Deshaun last year. No way they have as good of an experience their rookie years as they did in KC and Houston. They would have been thrown into the fire by Hue Jackson, only to fail because the team is in such rough shape. The coaching is questionable at best. |

I'm so glad the Chiefs drafted Mahomes. This class is severely overrated. The only one I'd even consider with the first pick is Darnold but he'd need a year to sit. Rosen is by far the most polished and ready but his mental makeup, attitude and concussion history scares the hell out of me.

I watches his Bowl Game. I was not impressed. He reminded me of Andy Dalton.
