From earlier today on GR-55.

 

On Allen: 

 

"I had him as a third round pick, my 90th player on the board, so I was very much a Josh Allen skeptic and nothing's changed.  Two major concerns: processing skills/reading coverage and footwork skills impacting his accuracy.  Those are 2 areas of concern that not a lot of quarterbacks have had success overcoming."

I think theres no question there are red flags all over the place on this kid regarding his projection into the NFL. He is quite polarizing. However, at this point we already picked him, so lets just get on board the hype train and let it play out.

The crusading of the OP is tendentious, employing ridiculous hyperbole to cast a wet blanket.  Plenty of respected football minds think Allen has a chance to be very good and most acknowledge that he has a fairly exceptional skill set that needs development.

I knew it was going to be a negative article on Allen before I even clicked on this thread. All I needed to see was the screen name of who posted it under the thread title... lol.

His concerns about Allen are valid.  But if this guy was any good, he’d write for a better site than a second rate website like  FanRag Sports.

You should change your name.  Reading your posts, the pain is only getting worse

Ridiculous hyperbole?  I quoted what the man said.

Good.  I've obviously made it known that the Allen pick was ridiculous and the record is well established on where I stand.

 

When we are going through all this crap again in 2 or 3 years with a new regime at the helm, I'll remind everyone.

 

Don't you people want to get it right?  Or do you just try to make yourselves feel good? 

 

I guess this team is a religion for you, and faith is all you need.

that's how you distinguish yourself as an analyst. have a hot take and then get headlines for saying it. no one is going to remember joe marino's comments five years from now if josh allen is good. 

Pointing out a few of Allen's debilitating flaws is not a "hot take".


It might not jive with what you hope Allen to be, but that really isn't relevant to the discussion on Allen as a draft pick.

We need to bring in Crash Davis to coach Josh Allen......  Hey Josh-- hit the Nose Tackle in the balls...

Rave scouting reports on pro QB's prospects based on having prototypical size and cannon arm talent more than anything else never pan out.
