BleedTheClock Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 You've all heard of this game before: Fudge one, marry one, kill one. Well now the QB edition (any of this draft's top QB's can be used *Darnold *Mayfield *Rosen *Allen *Jackson) One of these guys is likely to be a superstar while one of them is likely to be terrible. Let's take guesses. Franchise QB: Solid QB: Bust QB: Mine: Franchise QB: Baker Mayfield Solid QB: Sam Darnold Bust QB: Josh Allen *Josh Rosen becomes a solid starter a tick below Darnold. Lamar Jackson eventually moves to WR and stars in the role after failing at QB.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWood21 Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Franchise QB: Josh Rosen Solid QB: Baker Mayfield Bust: Josh Allen Sam Darnold essentially turns into Eli Manning, and Lamar Jackson spends a couple of years at QB before moving to WR.

ClutchDJ Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Franchise QB: Josh Rosen Solid QB: Lamar Jackson Bust: Sam Darnold Baker Mayfield becomes a QB that’ll experience very high highs & low lows. Josh Allen moves to TE after failing at QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayfield's personality scares me as much as Darold's rawness. Solid QB: Josh Rosen Bust: Josh Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopherwrestler Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Franchise: Baker Solid: Lamar Bust: Don't think any of the top guys will really bust. Choosing? Rudolph, if you consider someone outside the 1st round busting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year was obviously a major let down. He's never going to be an efficient quarterback, that's for sure. But I still have hope that he can be an effective one.

Pitt would have been one of my preferences for him with Haley (not sure now that he's gone) and if you could have gotten him late first or even in the second.

The top 5 that I think Allen is going to go is just not supportable Obviously could be wrong about him, and admittedly, a team like the Steelers would be ideal seeing as he could sit back and learn for a couple years....but I would personally be sick if we ended up drafting him even at 28. I personally would be pretty upset if we drafted him at any point before late round 3. Thats how little faith I have that he will be anything close to a franchise QB. At least if we draft him in round 3, there is a chance the team would move on after one year if he wasnt good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tugboat Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Franchise: Josh Rosen. Solid: Josh Allen. Bust: Sam Darnold. I don't even really know how to play this game this year though. It's a weird group of QBs. Frankly, i'm not entirely convinced there's a true Franchise QB among the top guys. It actually looks closer to assorted flavours of potential QB Purgatory right now. I think Rosen is probably my safest bet to hold down a starting QB job and be "good enough to not move on" for a long time. So i'll call that a "franchise QB" in the same vein as an Andy Dalton or similar. Enough to win with and build around for a long long time. Close enough for rock 'n roll. I also think with Pro coaching and a bit more refinement, Josh Allen has the sort of "upside" that could keep a team transfixed for a good long time. And probably another team after that. My comp for him is "bigger Jay Cutler", and i could absolutely see his career playing out similarly. "Solid" on the average, but by averaging the high highs and low lows, rather than just consistent average play. Winning games and always teasing that "something more" element in his good moments that makes a team hang on for a long time. Many years as a solidly entrenched starter, but wildly contentious the entire time. Sam Darnold will probably hoodwink some team into giving him the keys to the car for a while on draft status alone. But i just don't see it with him. He's a project, with some really difficult to correct flaws. He's my bust pick. I was tempted to pick Lamar Jackson as both my Franchise and my Bust. I think his landing spot is going to be absolutely critical. More so than any of the others he's going to need the right situation, flexibility, and people around him. As well, i think some luck in his ability to stay healthy will play a huge role in where his arrow ultimately points as a QB. He's my pick for brightest early flash of "franchise changing QB potential" in the NFL though, as long as he goes to a team ready to embrace his game.
