  1. Accuracy - Allen is the only one who fails completely in this area, however, he may have the most upside I have ever seen in a QB!!! 
  2. Poise - Darnold , Rosen and Mayfield lead the field in this category! 
  3. Footwork/Pocket Movement - Darnold, Jackson and Mayfield are all solid!
  4. Arm Strength - Allen is elite, however all the rest, have solid pro arms!
  5. Deep Passing - Darnold and Rosen seem to lead the pack!
  6. Decision Making - They are all potential 1st rounders, so I would have to say, they all are pretty solid.
  7. Mobility - Darnold and Jackson top the field, but Mayfield is quite OK!
  8. Toughness - Jackson and Rosen carry a red flag here, Jackson, because his lower body is small and Rosen has had numerous injuries including a concussion!

Why isn't Mayfield number 1? Just curious what traits is he lacking in that won't translate?

Height. And he gets a lot of easy throws because of the play action spread offense he works in. He's going to have a harder time transitioning to being a traditional NFL QB working under center and running pro style concepts. 90% of Oklahoma's pass plays came off of play action in an RPO-style attack. A lot of QB's would have put up good numbers in that system. I don't totally hold it against him or anything, but it's certainly worth noting.

Mayfield's height and college scheme are the only reasons he's not going #1. If he was 6'4 I'd take him #1 regardless of scheme, but those are his flaws.

But you think his traits translate don't over think this draft bro
