Should we draft a quarterback 1st overall?
-
So does Mayfield male his team better or does he have a good supporting cast?
Coaching always matters. Sooners did a smart thing to go get OC Lincoln Riley from ECU before Stoops retired. Riley is so damn young but if he wants the NFL game, he has the offensive mind for it..Take a look at Mayfield's stat line when Riley was first brought in, in 2015-16 as OC/QB coach..Now in 17, Baker is blowing Riley's system up, in Riley's 1st head coaching season.

Taking any QB out of this upcoming draft #1 scares the hell out of me. There's so many red flags for a lot of them. Rosen, Allen, D'Arnold, even Mayfield scares me at freaking #1. Lamar Jackson I think is the safest and most athletic out of this draft class. He might be the only QB i'd take at #1.

Then boo hoo. Wentz had questions, so did Watson. Sooner pun intended- or later, you have to pull the trigger. Lamar Jackson might be Michael Vick- he might be RG III.

How many sub 80 yd games does barkley have on the season? IMO Him at #1 is insane. Maybe if a guy was getting 150+ yds a game it'd be worth considering, but Cmon.
The most important position is qb. They've failed to draft a blue chip qb since 1999. They need to take a shot here.

So baker is the blue chip?
At this point, any qb at #1 is preferred over another #22 pick or an over drafted 5th rounder.
Rosen plays on a garbage team and runs a more pro style offense. If mayfield totally crushes the combine and the playoffs, maybe he'll move up. The big 12 is an offense only division it seems like.

Rosen plays in a pro style offense and has arguably the best arm out of the draft, but from my intel he's the biggest headcase, immature, and in my opinion, has the highest probability of busting. It should be a red flag to you guys that majority UCLA fans hate Rosen, his former head coach had negative things to say about him, AFC scouts said negative things about him, christ even his high school coach had negative things to say about him. I've read plenty of articles, and the one I read where that Rosen "cared about owning the world more than football". "I have connections that will do me well in life," Rosen said. "I will be OK without football. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/unfiltered-josh-rosen-speaks-out-about-indentured-servitude-of-college-football/
In my opinion, he comes off as a spoiled entitled brat, and the real life Bo Callahan.
Baker has HIGH UPSIDE. Like Tebow said, if you tailor a spread offense to him like how Houston did with Watson, he'll absolutely kill it. At least Baker plays with passion and finds a way to win. Has Rosen fired up his whole team and led them to victory after victory? You can go ahead and make excuses for him, but one QB is a leader, and the other one has lots of potential, but danger too.

So the undersized qb who gets tackled by the cops is less of a red flag? I think not. Manziels history will hurt mayfield i think. Nobody wants jff 2.0
UCLA is not a good team. They're not going to win a ton of games in that division. Their coach got fired before the season was even done.
Like others have pointed out, can mayfield read defenses and play under center? I don't know. I love watching him play, but he seems to be a huge gamble.

Wishful thinking. He'll never be ready. Kizer is a bust.
"He's still young" is not an excuse for overthrowing, throwing in the dirt, or unable to throw in stride to where the receiver has to contort his body to catch a ball giving him no time to do anything after the catches it. --- That is the opinion of Jim Donovan heard on KNR talking to Tony Rizzo.
Never mind about learning to play QB at a higher level, he looks like he's never played the position before and is trying to learn it.
Terelle Pryor would have been a much better QB for the browns.
Kosar was about the same age -BUT- with way more experience in college, surrounded by a better NFL team, maybe better everything including drive and ability.
To totally judge Kizer now is difficult to do the jury is still way out on that one, potential maybe, I think so......with this band of gypsies who knows if we'll ever really know, if he survives this season. Name me one other NFL quarterback past or present in his exact situation right off hand, how'd they do?

Mathew Stafford was drafted #1 overall by an 0-16 team. He went 2-8 he had 2200 yards 13tds vs Kizer 1500 yards and 5 TDs.

CBS Sports and maybe a few others have Rudolph ranked as the number one overall prospect. Not just the #1 QB, number one overall at any position.

The big knocks on him it seems is he's a Big 12 QB with a mediocre arm.

Could be why DraftScout has a 2nd round grade on him...

Mistakes happen but we make them over and over. The Peppers pick is turning out to be just terrible. Here's a first round pick that literally had zero impact stats. He's basically done nothing.

Funny, aside from a couple nice returns and some prime positioning - that was essentially what he did in college as well.
If only there had been people with the foresight to see these things...
And if he wants to pull an Eli Manning- we extort the living daylights out of whoever wants him and take Mayfield.
Brilliant. Let's get a ton of draft capital then waste it again.
Lamar Jackson I think is the safest and most athletic out of this draft class. He might be the only QB i'd take at #1.
Out of the previous QB's you listed this is literally the most butt backwards. Again, when you cut out the athletic ability - do you see an NFL QB? Because opposing defensive minds WILL take away his legs. The only time that doesn't happen is if you're Vick and run a 4.3 coupled with incredibly lateral agility. Jackson isn't that compact, I'm afraid.
Actually strike that. Pick freaking Barkley #1 and then pick a QB with our second first round pick. Mayfield should drop because of the crotch incident.
...then you found a way to come up with a worse idea after suggesting Jackson @ #1.
Tim Tebow most likely thinks the world is 6000 years old and is a 30 year old virgin, so....
In all seriousness, it is going to be very entertaining to see draft scouts debate Mayfield. He's going to be polarizing.
Not really. You'll have a handful of people that will recycle the same trash over and over about QB's like him. A few will see through the nonsense. We went through this process 4 years ago.

Might as well just re-sign Weeden.
