A lot of the top college QB's were at the Manning Passing Academy a week or so ago, and apparently Josh Allen was wowing everyone.
DJ and Rhett Lewis were talking about Allen and some other QB's in the most recent MTS Podcast... http://www.nfl.com/podcasts?id=d1211...9&sf94564899=1 |

If Tebow operated out of a pro system in college, would he still be in the NFL?
Probably not. Why? Accuracy. Tebow couldn't ****ing hit a bull's ass with a bass fiddle. Josh Allen has a lot to prove in that department. He doesn't have to be Drew Brees-accurate, but he's got to demonstrate better control on his throws or else he's going to wash out just like all the other inaccurate QBs who possessed all that size, talent, and experience, but struggled with precision. |

Darnold saying teams shouldn't tank for him bc he might not come out.
http://ble.ac/2uR9ZfA Glad we got Mahomes bc Clay's stupid ass plan was clearly stupid. |

I LOVED Allen. Loved the build, the arm talent, the gambler's instinct. I started a thread about him in the draft forum when there was talk of him coming out and said I'd probably use a 1st on him if he did. Allen's going to be exciting as hell. But apart from having a slightly better build (love the height advantage), what sets him apart from Mahomes? They're remarkably similar players with Allen having the added concerns of competition level. The major distinction I see is that both guys rarely show their 'good' mechanics but when they do, Allens are closer to ready than Mahomes are. Mahomes does so many things wrong with his lower half that it's going to take a long time to change them. Allen's problem isn't that he can't do those things right - it's that he rarely does. Mahomes might need to be re-taught whereas Allen needs to have them re-emphasized, if that makes any sense. If Allen would've come out early, I'd have taken him over Mahomes. But he didn't and if it turns out he's the top 5 prospect that many think he can make himself, well the Chiefs were extremely unlikely to get him anyway. So in the end, why should I still lose sleep over Josh Allen? |

I'd still favor Mahomes over Allen, if you've got a coach like Andy.
Pat has that unique arm talent. |

I said it before the draft and still believe, people are going to be a tad underwhelmed by the end of January, with this upcoming class.
I wouldn't bet on Darnold giving up multiple years of remaining eligibility, at a place like LA where he is now famous, to play for a shit franchise. He's going to stay for at least one more year. Josh Allen has a nice mix of arm and athleticism and yeah he plays in a pro-style Offense, but his play is allover the ****ing place and I want to see him do something meaningful against a real team. He needs a strong year if he wants to cement himself as the top QB. Rosen needs to show a lot this year. Lamar Jackson does intrigue me, and I think he'll declare if Darnold stays. |

Same shit different year. Like others have said, lets wait for the season to end and see how things really go.
Remember seeing Matt Barkley and Tyler Wilson fighting it out for top picks? Oh and Tyler Bray another potential 1st rounder. |
