Jay_Fixit Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Rosen: The good for Buffalo: Big hands (needed for the weather) Big Arm (combined with the hands, Good for spinning it in wind etc) Accurate But have to balance vs: Statue in the pocket Potential personality issues
PIZ Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 I really like this article and love the way Joe B writes. After reading through this, I would be excited about any of them.

Just because the guy has a brain and opinions, he's a potential problem child? I'll take a top rated quarterback with a brain anytime over someone with low intelligence and an inability to have a feel for the game and what's happening in front of him. The real concern about someone like Rosen is how long he'll be dedicated to football since he has other potentially lucrative options. Plus, he's already had injury issues. 3

The real concern about someone like Rosen is how long he'll be dedicated to football since he has other potentially lucrative options. Plus, he's already had injury issues. It's just not going to end up working in the locker room if a starting QB has a personality with traits like... Thinking he's better and smarter than everyone else. Having no filter (strong opinions inevitably would lead to the alienation of about half the players in the locker room). Being simply flat out spoiled. I'm not saying Rosen's any or all of the above, but that's the concern with that guy. I do think those are legitimate concerns that have to be looked at and researched. I'd much rather have a Lamar Jackson who may be a notch below but everyone loves, rather than a QB who is a notch above in talent but not very well liked by a significant amount of team mates.

jr1 Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 I see Rosen being out of the league after a few years like the players that retired early from concussions

It was a big reason why Buddy Nix drafted him

I’ve listened enough experts and read enough on how his personality is a HUGE issue for teams. Issues with authority, being a good teammate, love for the game etc. I just wrote words that were true. So maybe enough with you saying enough? You bother me. Edited March 2, 2018 by Jay_Fixit

NewEraBills Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 I don't want the Bills anywhere near Allen honestly. I have Luke Falk ahead of Allen as a QB. Much better accuracy, ball placement, processor and decision maker. 1

But it will be an issue for others. I don’t personally care. The reason it matters to me is your QB has to be the leader on the field. And I believe the best leaders are the ones people want to follow. I guess the specifics of the personality order risk are important. Like if he’s just an arrogant prick but uses that to work his tail off and drive others to perform its perfectly fine

I get that too. I read Jeff George when I saw personality issues not Jim kelly but... who knows- it’s all roulette
