Darnold is still the #1 QB (Rosen is just another Matt Ryan)

Jarret Stidham, fam?

He is one of the last QB's you'd want when facing pressure. Cuz literally threw the game away on the last play vs. UCF because of it...

you realize if Rosen was guaranteed to be another Matt Ryan he'd be the 1 pick in literally every draft and teams would be trading up to get him right ?

your expectations are way too high for any #1 pick if you are assuming they are better than Matt Ryan

I prefer Darnold bc he makes more special throws

A good QB coach can tweak his mechanics but the kid is big, mobile & can make special throws...also played in a pro style offense, which is HUGE in this age of spread offenses

Ryan's gotten good enough with his legs that it's become underrated. He's not a track star by any means, but he's not a statue either, he's bailed the pocket all year to keep plays alive.


Darnold the prospect is a less polished Jameis with a worse throwing motion and the same goofball turnovers. It's impossible to justify taking him over Rosen.

Darnold can move better than Jameis, which is imho Jameis biggest weakness.
