There were some decision making risks with Darnold, to be sure. I just liked his potential as a pure pocket passer more than Mayfield. If I were going pure upside (which I would've been doing at 1.1 in all likelihood) I think I'd have gone Darnold and hoped to coach the bad decisions out of him.

Rosen would've been the safest choice because he was the most polished guy. Maybe I simply got tricked by the narrative because I've obviously never talked to the guy, but there's a chance he really doesn't give a shit about football and in the event things get rocky, you can't lead with that attitude and he may simply pack his shit and shut it down.

Oh, side note - anything OU related can die in an AIDS fire. So, y'know, there's that.
