Josh Allen

[Professor Chaos]

One throw is obviously a small sample size but here's a good display of Allen's accuracy (or lack thereof) in comparison to Heisman winner Baker Mayfield during Senior Bowl practices: https://twitter.com/NickiJhabvala/st...28021945618437

Not a good look when you are missing targets badly during senior bowl practice:

"But as Allen told Cleveland’s 92.3 The Fan this week, “stats are for losers.” The one thing Allen doesn’t lack, after his cannon for an arm, is confidence. He continued: “While at Wyoming, we won games and I definitely think that’s how quarterbacks are judged in the NFL.” Allen went 16–9 in his last two seasons at Wyoming and didn’t win a single game of much importance. But the dude’s Senior Bowl press tour has been a delight.

In that same interview, Allen said he has “qualities that Aaron Rodgers has,” and that at Wyoming, “I had to put everybody on my back.” He compared his gunslinger mentality to Brett Favre’s and said he wants “to be the guy that turns around the Cleveland Browns.”

to be the guy that turns around the Cleveland Browns

I'm not sure if even the return of the Messiah could turn around the Browns.

Yeah, he sounds just like Carson Wentz.

Stats are for losers? How about accuracy stats? Intangibles? He talks about "carrying the team" but vs good competition he carried them by throwing 1 TD to 8 Picks and the team got their ass kicked.

Browns should draft a QB with all of their first round picks.

The Uker meme was hilarious.

Josh Allen for the week in 7 on 7 drills. Passes over 15 yards he was 1-7 with a pick. Reading media reports you would think he's the greatest QB ever.

Listening to 104.3 TheFan (Denver station with former Broncos) the past week, and they felt Allen was terrible for the first day, but worked his butt off on the second day and reestablished himself as the second best QB in the draft (Mayfield killed everything outside the deep passes, which was won by Allen). The broadcasts were done while the hosts were watching the practices live in Mobile.

With that said, I'm hoping the Broncos trade up to get Saquon Barkley, or draft an O-lineman. If they want Mayfield, I hope they can collect a few more picks by dropping back a few spots first.

Looked horrible at half time and looked like he was done for the day

But he came in the 2nd half he's looking pretty awesome even though the rules say you can't blitz. He may have saved himself from falling out of the first round. The plays were more good design but still looked great. If I had to predict, probably looking like a mid to lower first round unless some team is desperate and willing to pay top 5 money for a player that's 2-3 years away. Cleveland is dumb enough to play him right away and kill his confidence. He needs a year or so to work on accuracy which sucks pretty bad.
