It's all dramatic stuff. I want him because he's good at playing quarterback. On the field his arm can cut through the wind, he is able to read coverages and make amazing throws from inside the pocket. He has good size and height, hands etc. This is the type of quarterback we haven't had in a very long time. I think the biggest issue is the concussions. I have no problem with the spoiled white kid stuff..or the cockiness. People seem to love the same things about Mayfield but it comes in the form of small, unathletic white trash, so he is confident? We can call him a quitter for leaving Texas Tech, or call him out for making excuses for the 8 uncatchable balls he threw at his pro day. We can frame things up to be anyway we want them to be. To me all that stuff is all semantics. It is the job of the coaches and GMs to make sure a person works in your locker room. This is the NFL, not cumbaya. If McDermott can't get a guy like Rosen to work in his locker room, he should not have a job. If they decide they don't like him, fine, but I think, based on talent and the way he plays, that he is the best quarterback in this draft. With the concussion history, I don't want him for a boatload of picks when we have so many other holes.

That's a good point and I do think that is the biggest issue with Rosen. All the other stuff doesn't bother me. His talent is certainly worth a trade up, but if team doctors are concerned then it isn't worth it.

I could be wrong, but I just don't see teams trading up and taking Rosen in the top 5. He's talented but there's way too many questions about him. In addition to the concussions and ability to avoid NFL pass rushes, it's not a good look when he has to spend all his time in interviews defending his love for the game. I've got no problem with players speaking their minds and having interests outside of football, but I just think GM's will roll the dice on Darnold and Allen first at the top of the draft. I also think Mayfield will be taken before Rosen. Edited March 18, 2018 by BuffaloRebound

Hackenburg was never thought to be the best like some do with Allen. Yes, I know Hackenberg wasn't as highly touted as Allen seems to be (although he was considered a potential #1 overall pick after his first season). But I feel that he does share some similarities with Hack, as I described in my last post. What you mentioned is actually part of the reason why I think he could go to the Jets at #3 though. Allen seems to be thought of highly enough to be considered at the top of the draft. He's a much higher rated prospect than Hackenberg, but still shares some of the same traits Hack has that may have helped Maccagnan fall in love with him (Hackenberg). 1
