Sanchez only played 1 year and had the mental make up of delicate China, Mayfield has 4 years of starting experience and believes he can walk on water if you told him he couldn't. What traits do they share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see this comp what so ever. Sanchez was a one year starting pocket passer with limited mobility playing in a pro style offense. Literally nothing alike. Maybe similar arm strength and the ability to go through progressions; that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What traits do they share? Smaller QBs with “some” athleticism that are very cocky. And they look similar in uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems limited athletically but capable when they have to at the next level (much like Sanchez) I always viewed Sanchez as a cocky guy. Nowhere near to the over and beyond level of that of Mayfield. But still cocky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near to the over and beyond level of that of Mayfield. But still cocky. 1) Sanchez was bigger than Rodgers at the combine. He was 6'2, nearly 230. Mayfield was under 6'1. 2) Yes. Stop looking at the combine numbers. Mayfield's escapability and running ability is night and day from Sanchez'. It's not even close. 3) You'll likely be the first then because he was one of the most humble QB's we ever had. If you wanted to call Geno cocky, I would not have argued, but Sanchez wasn't the slightest ounce of cocky. Also, you never replied to my initial comment saying that Sanchez was a true pocket passer playing in a pro style offense, which was nothing similar to Mayfield.

SDotNova Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I've never viewed Sanchez as cocky at all. I don't think you can even say he was a confident QB. Which is not a bad thing to be if you are going to be the QB of the NYJ. Sanchez got eaten alive by the ny press. Both Allen and Rosen are very confident QB's as well. That trait will be a positive for all three of them if they are the choice. I think those three guys can handle the ny press with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player can’t control what kind of offense they play in. I’ve stated this several times regarding Mayfields stats being overblown like completition percentage, TDs and yards. I think you put Sanchez in the OU offense and he shows similar athleticism and increase accuracy. Same as I said with Rosen, Allen and Darnold if they played at OU. The only guys it really doesn’t apply to are Falk and Rudolph bc they played in similar systems. I think Mayfields attributes are overblown and I’ve stated that several times bc of his system.

And there's advanced analytics on Mayfield that indicate that he made more NFL throws than anyone, which has nothing to do with how open a guy is. He also was the most accurate in tight windows of any QB in the draft. Sanchez and Mayfield's playstyles are literally nothing alike. If you compared saying Falk to Sanchez, even though Falk plays in a spread and Sanchez played in a PSO, at least they have similar games. And you can argue that, but every single advanced analytic is on Mayfield's side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I stated I of course will cheer for him and be a supporter of him if we draft him, but I certainly won’t be all for the pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.O Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Yeah the Baker-Sanchez comp isn’t very good . Sanchez had huge confidence issues and was a pure drop back passer, almost the opposite of Baker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance Darnold didn’t even rush for 100yds this season yet IMO he’s more athletic than Baker who ran for 5 times the yards he did. It’s a system thing. USC runs a more pro style offense and OU is not even close to that. Therefor bigger lanes for Mayfield to throw AND run. You look at the skill set not the numbers. I used Sanchez bc they are very close in size (6’2” and shorter) athletic enough, but limited and hey look similar in a uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnaby8787 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 All the beat writers seems to be leaning towards Rosen and Mayfield which is interesting. Haven't seen too many linking Allen lately which is surprising, but hopefully they're right on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
