HereComesTheReignAgain Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 If the league had a do-over and drafted teams, there is not a single GM that would pick Allen lower than 2. *I know that is not what this list is about, but Allen at 12 is laughable. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DapperCam Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 10 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: Yeah. If you think about it most of his turnover heavy games last year happened to be on Prime Time starting with his worst game of the year against the Jets. Sets the narrative for the season. It's 100% voted on by players. I don't think many even watch football games outside of their own prep for each week. It's fully a popularity contest, and Allen seems to struggle to win those. Putting on my conspiracy hat, I think players in the league hold Allen's tweets from when he was a teenager against him. I also think he's known as one of the biggest trash talkers in the league. So, down the popularity rankings he goes. Like another poster said, if there were a NFL-wide redraft, Mahomes would go #1 and Allen would go #2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DapperCam Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 The number of people online who think this list is some sort of objective truth is too high. A player is handed a ballot in the locker room to write down 20 names after Thanksgiving during the season. Only a subset of NFL players are polled. I don't believe each team or position group get the same number of players polled. Just whoever the guys handing out the ballots can get to fill it out. Each ballot probably has 10 players from their own team on it, and then 10 players that they are most friendly with. Dawkins at the bottom of the list probably only got votes from Bills players because there is no way a player from another team that isn't his personal friend would rank him as a top 20 player in the NFL. /rant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriorspikes51 Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Allen should be Top 7 easy. He's QB2 and it really isn't up for debate. TD Machine and has shown up in Playoffs Burrow is not a threat with his legs + injuries. Lamar has not risen even close to the same level as Mahomes or Allen in the playoffs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetermansRedemption Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Ah yes, I’d definitely rather play against Josh Allen than Fred Warner 🙄. List is a joke every year and I never watch the actual broadcast, just look up the final rankings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobbRiddick Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I personally love all this. I love Josh being called overrated by one exec (and that quote going viral), I love the rhetoric of the Bills being terrible this season because they "lost so many guys", and I love this too. I'm a big believer, rightly or wrongly, in things being set up a certain way, and all these signs keep pointing in my mind to Josh having an amazing season and the Bills doing something special. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Digg? Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 I just looked through the list-did I miss where Burrow is on that list? I assume he would still Be voted onto this list (if Rodgers is on there, he has to be on there)…No way he’s top 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayjent Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 (edited) This list is much like the “overrated” quote - all manufactured controversy. Tabloid tactics to create something to talk about. Everyone sees Josh’s talent and it is undeniable, but there is also no championship to go with it so it’s an easy target to make him the center of disrespect and then get people to talk about both sides of the argument. There is only one guy ahead of him that any team would want first - that is Mahomes and it isn’t unanimous. You’ll be able to laugh off the other 10 guys as a joke starting with Fred Warner. Warner is a good player but he plays behind a great DL, and you can’t tell me that any player, fan, or coach thinks he is more valuable than Josh Allen in terms of Ws.

This may be controversial but if Josh Allen was black he'd be top 5 every year imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
