I'm not sure that was his point...

I’ve been watching Colin slowly turn from critic to fan. He’s all in on JA17 and McBeane.  Joy is still only grudgingly going along. She acknowledges he’s good and her assessment was wrong but inevitably brings up year 1 and says something akin to disaster.

There are quite a few countries where they pay that and more for football ️ players.

 

Cowherd’s message here is a refreshing break from the onslaught of Equality™️ that endlessly spews from the media and politicians.

I think Colin has been more favourable to most on Josh from day 1. While he said at draft time he wouldn't have taken him ahead of Rosen and Darnold he always said you take a chance on a Josh Allen ahead of a chance on a Baker Mayfield because if he hits his gifts make him special. I think his view on Josh has developed in the same way Josh's play has.

Well he did genuinely laugh and sneer at Allen getting in the top 100 players after his second season. By all means disagree but he was just laughing like it was a joke, then said he wouldn't put him in the top 200, which was insane and showed he never bothered to watch the games. I at least expect these experts who get paid to talk about football to watch some of the games.

Bear in mind that 90 plus percent of these guys and gals are NOT experts in any way shape or form. 
basically they are Sh-t talkers like one sees at the local pub,

Yeah he was like that about Josh for a while there.

I still think we should have drafted Josh Rosen though. Isn't he one of the experts who said that at one time

His point in that segment was that Lavonte David was #100 which was way too low (correct) and his argument against Josh was unravels a bit in games v the Pats and in the playoff loss. None of that was untrue at the point he said it. I think the "not in the top 200" thing was a bit of hyperbole and I agree ridiculous but the nuance behind his argument was not so ridiculous.

People like Joy either fail to see or ignore what a ***** show Josh‘s offense was as a rookie.  It’s annoying but par for the course.

No but there are countries that pay soccer stars $148.5 million a year to play striker(Messi's last contract with Barcelona...$594 million over 4 years), and NBA stars make close to $50 a year now...

I wish it were a little longer.  The Josh Allen leap is equally part of why he’s so special.   What he’s become as a passer from where he was 3 years ago simply doesn’t happen. 

 

He’s become the example of what every GM, Coach, and fan hopes for in the draft.  I openly admit to being pissed when we drafted him and I don’t feel guilty about it because his ascension simply doesn’t happen.

I think, in context, it was accurate to say Josh didn’t belong in the top 100 after that season.  Now after last year.. there’s just no arguing he’s one of the best at the biggest position of impact.  To me, if I were building a team, purely on performance, he would be my #2 choice as things stand right now. Now if I were building a team and I had to coach it or just generally be around it, he’s my number 1 pick.  Maholmes is the better performer thus far, but JA is close and his attitude/work ethic/general likability, it’s great to be a fan of.
