What happened? Wats the reference here?

Charlie Campbell, who's pretty well connected, reported that Josh Rosen was declaring for the draft in December. Rosen basically got pissed that he reported it before Rosen had had a chance to do it on his own terms. Campbell said something stupid along the lines of "I know my source is correct (and to be fair, everybody knew Rosen was declaring...it didn't even really need to be reported in the first place) and if it turns out that my source is NOT correct and you stay at UCLA, I'll pay you a month of my salary. If my source is correct and you do declare, you owe me a month of yours" or something childish like that.

 

Walter, the main guy at WalterFootball, is just a despicable person. Charlie is usually fine, and he's pretty well connected so I think his stuff is generally valuable to read, but he just came off as such a douche with the Rosen thing.

He won't be there at 21. The ones that might be there would be Mayfield (unlikely) and Lamar Jackson (I'm guessing a 50/50 thing).

 

I think this year will end up going like 2012.  Luck 1st, RG3 2nd, Tannehill 8th and Weeden 22nd.  Darnold and Rosen one and two.  Mayfield in top 10 and then I think Allen falls a little.  Supposedly the talk is that the media likes Allen a lot more than the teams do.

As far as I know, that's just Ben Allbright, who's notorious for being wrong about damn near everything he reports. There's also been reports that Allen might go #1, that GMs think Allen has been by far the best QB at the Senior Bowl, etc.

Sounds like he and Baker have both been pretty amazing today from all the reports I've been reading.

I watched the QB's in practice today on ESPN.  What stood out to me:

- Josh Allen has a superior arm.  Everyone else looks like they are throwing change-ups vs his fast balls.  It's a shame that he is so inaccurate and doesn't have good touch.  He is so big and has such a strong arm that he really stands out and you are like wow.

- Mayfield absolutely takes charge and controls the offense.  He is the type of guy that you draft him and then all you hear about in training camp is how he is taking over and before you know it he is getting the starting reps and your veteran is now the backup.  I predict that whatever team picks him, he will win the QB battle and if he doesn't start it will be because the coaches are holding him back on purpose.  There's no way he goes through a training camp and doesn't come out as the starting QB of the team.

- Both guys started out pretty slow with some really inaccurate passes but then turned it up a notch and delivered some good balls.  You can tell the coaches really like Mayfield.  He's either taking a rep or he's cheering on the guys that are or he's talking to the coaches.  He's not standing around and waiting his turn like the other 30 or so guys that were on the field.

- Luke Falk had some nice touch on some fades into the endzone but overall his arm looked pretty weak.

- Josh Allen has so much potential that if he gets picked before Mayfield it's only because a coach thinks he can get it out of him.  Mayfield is the better pro right now.  And that's coming from someone who didn't think Mayfield would pan out.  I wish we could get all of the top QB's on the field so we could watch them compete. Watching them at the combine throwing vs air isn't the same as watching them with the pads on in practice vs defenders.

Isaiah Wynn and Darius Leonard in the second round please.  Although Wynn came off with a minor shoulder injury, he's dominated this week.  Has great versatility for a lineman.  Leonard is fast and all over the field at linebacker.  Mayock compared him to Telvin Smith.  He was flying all over the field sideline to sideline.  Both players are trending up and might not even make it to our picks in the second if so, I hope they are strongly considered.

I was thinking Russell Wilson. I'm fine with either lol

 

He isn't good enough of an athlete to create like Wilson does

 

but he's a much better pocket passer.

 

Brees is the most accurate QB I've ever seen but if Baker can even come close to being as accurate he can be great

Are you coming over to the dark side?   I know you would still take Rosen over both of them, but it was kinda cool to see you talk up Mayfield a bit.

after watching that practice and how he's all over the field being the general i don't think there's any way he doesn't win a starting job in the NFL.  will he be successful?  not sure yet but his arm looked strong enough and he has the "it factor."  he wants it bad though and he will put in the work i think.  so yes, I now think he is worth a 1st round pick!

Good deal!   Thats the thing about these guys, you really are just making your best educated guess.    Whatever happens he was still my favorite college player ever.  Really enjoyed watching him play this year, and for those exact reasons you mentioned.   If you want someone who loves football he is your guy.
