Could you imagine if the bills would’ve listen to the board and pick Josh Rosen instead of Josh Allen

interim coach was the one that drafted Rosen.

Imagine it?  We lived through it for 20 years until #17 showed up!

Yeah my favorite thread ever together with this beauty:

 

 

85-90% of posters wanted Rosen when we were picking. Fun times

Sign him, make him hold our Josh’s clipboard for one game, then cut him

His humility is so heart warming.  He is the “Anti-Josh Josh”. (TM* pending)

 

At least now he has more time to work on his serve and volley. He could probably do a great Djokovic imitation. Except Djokovic can actually play his sport at a high level.

Haha I was digging thru some random cards today and came across a rookie card for old Rosen. I looked at it and said, aw man, wish it was the other Josh.

This guy is right up there with Ryan Leaf as one of the biggest top 10 draft pick busts of all time, especially at the QB position.

 

Thank god the Bills didn't draft him.

I still recall watching the draft with a bunch of guys and when the pick was made, saying to the guy next to me “Not the Josh I expected “

 

Glad I was wrong!!

I remember draft day - I'm usually one of the fans who trusts the front office, and was all in on whoever they picked. So I was fine w/ the Allen pick and got behind it.

 

But I do remember thinking that Rosen was probably more of a "sure thing."  It's crazy when I think about that whole draft now.  I thought Darnold would be amazing, and lamented that we couldn't get him.

 

Man, did things work out. Beane deserves all kinds of credit - I doubt even he saw what Allen would become, but he not only picked the right Josh, but the right QB from that entire draft. Which was one of the most hyped QB drafts in years.

Carolina needs a QB, don't they?? 

[dorquemada]

Oof that draft day thread.  We aren’t a bright group, are we?

In fairness, there WERE 6 big mistakes... and one huge ****ing coup... that occured ahead of him.

Thrown into two bad situations but he surely didn't help himself either.

 

Can't feel too badly for him tho, he has earned nearly $19 million for doing nothing.  Not as impressive as Jamarcus Russel's almost $40 million for doing nothing, but not far behind. At least Russell started for a while.

Set for life, doing nothing- God bless America…😉

I just spent some time reading through part of that thread..

 

Lots of not so great takes from people with "strong" opinions on a lot of other topics..

 

I'll admit to not liking the pick either but I think I said words to the effect of "hoping for the best" afterwards... seems to have worked out ok...

This is an hilarious read. The best quote from that thread came from our very esteemed @GunnerBill:

LOL!
