Josh Allen i feel is still my target in the draft for a QB. He needs a bit of time to sit and learn but he was a kid who had to walk on at a Junior College and ended up in Wyoming on a bad team.
Now that being said I am drafting him if he has the chance to sit for a season or two along with Kizer. Both guys are big strong protype QBs. We need an actual veteran QB to lead this team. Either like an Alex Smith, aka the older smart QB, or a transitional guy aka a McCarron who knows the offense but is still young and hungry to prove himself.
If I was a team like Pittsburgh I would take him late in the first round. He needs to sit but in the right place he will be a legit QB
Guys like Rosen will be like an Eli Manning. Will be a solid NFL QB, but health issues all the time, will be my only question with him. Mayfield seems like a 15 area NFL Ranked QB. Will never be a top guy, but should be a solid QB. That’s all Cleveland needs. Guys like Darnold are wild cards since they do so much right and so much wrong. Jackson is too thin for the next level, i think he will be an RG3. Good couple seasons then injuries ruin him.
My rank for QB
Rosen
Mayfield
Allen
Darnold
How is Jackson too thin? Goff is thinner. Tyrod is smaller and not as fast and his a top 15 QB. I swear the two most overstated things with these QB's are Mayfield's height and Jackson's frame. Neither are deal breakers. If the worse part about their game is their height and frame it really sounds like people just don't like them and would prefer the other QB's because they think that's what the NFL wants. I urge people to really look around the league and examine just the difference in QB's in the league right now.
There is no prototype QB in the NFL right now. There is no single blueprint to follow.
Tom Brady

These are QB's from the last 10 Super Bowls. There are multiple different styles of QB's on that list. There's statue pocket passers, mobile, guys with big arm, bad accuracy issues, game managers, gun slingers. Point is there are many different versions of FQB's that can get you to a Super Bowl. We have to stop acting like the NFL hasn't evolved and be more open to different styles of QB's. Don't limit yourself to NFL groupthink on QB's.
