The Now Moment Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 As if there aren't a million threads complaining that Allen didn't throw for 5,000 yards in college. STATS DON"T TELL THE ENTIRE STORY! He's a project, everyone knows that. However, he is regarded as the QB with the highest potential in this class. 1

That he throws hard and long. The statistics on him are as damning as I have ever seen in regards to a prospect. Actually, nothing tells you more than statistics.

The statistics on him are as damning as I have ever seen in regards to a prospect. Expand Why has any expert/NFL scout fallen in love with him? Of course his size, mobility, ability to throw the home run ball and he has shown glimpses of the Arron Rodgers throwing out of the pocket down the field. Every single QB in this class needs to get better. Nobody is good enough right now. Why not take the guy with the highest potential, especially since he doesn't have to start right away.
MarlinTheMagician Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 How does this thread not get merged in the Allen thread? Anyway, it is a joke. Allen is a tremendous talent, we will see how he develops. 1

noacls Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Not as bad as this thread. Rosen was not picked get over it 1
MarlinTheMagician Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Don't feed the troll. Rosen was picked - by the NFL, to be the 4th QB drafted. Just not 1, 2 or 3 material.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Allen is a much better QB than his stats say. I've been watching a lot of his games and it's easy to see that his WR's get zero separation. The O-Line also had some very bad games. At the very least we have a big, strong, mobil QB that can clean up his footwork and be a better than average QB.
Where’sLloyd Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Haha “stats tell the whole story” good luck with that

TheBrownBear Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Phil Simms was selected #7 overall with a 53% completion percentage and 32 TDs against 45 INTs.

Teams paying attention to analytics understand it's not about feelings, projections, and "upsides". Still waiting for someone to explain what gives him the most upside. Arm strength has failed as a barometer over and over.

"unbelievably bad" title Expand Can anyone think of another place this may have gone, like....maybe, in the Josh Allen thread? It would be easier to miss there. Time will tell people. Love it or hate it, nobody knows how this turns out yet. You can have an opinion, but we don’t KNOW.
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Yikes... If you want attention atleast make it a worthwhile read. You've brought nothing to the table. This opinion could've been shared in any of the numerous Allen threads. You've been on this board before right? Ugh... differing opinions make for meaningful debate but this pop up Mommy, Daddy, Look at me, attention seeking ish is getting old. 1
