Would The Jets Pass on The Best QB?

I also have that feeling for tonight too tbh the Jets might pass on josh rosen,It makes me throwup to think that.

 

It’s been obvious for months that there is no consensus best QB, the best QB won’t be proven for years.

 

All I'll say if you believe Mayfield to be so inferior to Rosen AND if Mayfield ends up being the pick: have an open mind about it. Don't go into full meltdown. There is enough evidence available out there that he is at or even above the level of Rosen overall that this shouldn't be a meltdown on delivery pick. Enjoy it, regardless of the pick. We'll be living with the pick for quite some time.

 

He is the best talent in one, important, regard: traditional NFL passer mechanics. We aren't watching traditional NFL schemes anymore. The skill set still matters but there is more to it. The evaluation has to go beyond the one factor.

 

I don’t know how true this is. I don’t know how you could even really make the claim that someone has the ability or inability to learn unless you’re the one teaching them. Rosen has a better understanding of the game than Mayfield because he played at UCLA? I dunno. Not buying it.

I’m fine with either. As long as one of their names is called tonight I can go to sleep a ridiculously happy man.

 

I understand what you're saying, but you also have to bear in mind what they can become. Rosen might be the best now, but will he be in 2/3 year's time? As far as I'm concerned that's more important than what they are now.

 

Wow somebody else that forgot to add IMO at the start of their post.

Imo Rosen Is the best qb will the jets pass on him, man it is my big worry, they won't take that smart mouthed pumped up qb will they.

Now I will dribble a bit and claim things but not back them up as per usual for this kind of post.

I will decry my love for the guy I want drafted to head off any smart ass who may want to argue about it.

Job done.

ABM

Anyone bar Mayfield.

 

All 4 of these QB's have their strengths and weaknesses so its anyone's guess who will be the best. If the best QB in this draft ends up in the AFCE then I just hope he is wearing green and not blue.

 

Footwork, throwing motion, and release are all strengths of Mayfield. Mayfield is sometimes correctly criticized for having frenetic feet, but that is balanced by his ability to retain his full arm strength and accuracy when throwing off balance, something Rosen has never really shown with any consistency.

Also, regarding the intelligence factor, that is a weak hill to die on. You can reasonably assess that Rosen is the most intelligent of these guys, but only with a low degree of confidence. Neither you nor I nor anyone outside of the NFL or the press covering it has sat 1:1 and worked through whiteboarding and schematics with any of these guys. You and I, we just don't know. There are a lot of reports that say Rosen is as bright as advertised, the same way that there are a lot of reports that Mayfield is absolutely blowing teams away on the whiteboard. We don't have facts as to what is true and what is smoke. You can fairly suspect where they rank, but you don't truly know. If you want to look at something concerning game knowledge that we do know, it is games started, and Mayfield stands above the class in this factor alone. Being a senior with 4 years starting experience is something that mattered to Bill Parcells (and I would assume Bowles having come from that tree, though I don't know that either). This is definitely not something Mark Sanchez could claim.

So I see you making analogies for Mayfield to compare him to Sanchez and whomever, while building up Rosen, but you really ought to check the facts behind your evaluation. There are tons of good reasons to love Rosen, but he is not as clear cut above the rest as many here believe he is.
