NFL: 2018 NFL draft prospects thread

[What the Faulk]

Mayfield and Josh Allen are linked most to the Broncos. Apparently Kubiak really likes Mayfield and Elway likes Allen. I think I'd go with who Kubiak wants tbh.

All the guys on Twitter whose opinions I trust like Sharp and Barfield and Jahnke are all over Mayfield. Seems fitting that Kubiak feels the same way. Someone is going to get a bit of a steal if he can put it together at the pro level.

Well he fits what a Kubiak/Shanahan offense likes in a QB. Moreso than Allan.

A writer for the Athletic did an interesting review of Josh Allen. Mostly, he's asking why people have Allen rated as high as they do. One thing he did was look at the college stats of all 28 1st round QBs from the past ten drafts to see where Allen's college stats compare.

Here’s where Allen’s junior-season stats would rank if included in that group (out of 28).

Completion percentage: 27th
Yards per attempt: Tied for 27th
TD-to-INT ratio: 19th
Pass efficiency rating: 25th

Mandel: Josh Allen’s analogue is not a No. 1 NFL draft...

Allen is giving me Kyle Boller flashbacks.

Judging from the RB measurements..these are some big dudes. Except for Ronald Jones.

 

[Celly4Celebrini]

The Broncos already have Paxton Lynch and Josh allen is a slightly more talented Lynch. AKA all the tools but wont be a actual NFL starting QB

You said before that Jones was the second-best RB coming out this year.
Which one is the most Lynch-like?

Royce Freeman.

With Norwell looking to walk and Kalil retiring after 2018, Price is probably a guy Carolina is now interested in. f*** Kiper for being right.

They also met with Sony Michel.

 

[Avs_19]

That's rough.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

That sucks for him. Usually the bench press isn't a big deal but for him it was.

[Gene Parmesan]

That's so f***ing insulting and I'd say the same thing.

 

[Terry Yake]

yeah that's absolutely ridiculous

 

[Avs_19]

For his sake I hope he's better at football than he is at exercising. I've heard some say he's raw but has potential and others have said he's big but that's about it. Louis Riddick ripped him on ESPN for both his tape and combine performance.

The Strength & Conditioning Coach at Penn State now held the same job at Maryland back in the day when guys like Vernon Davis, Darius Heyward-Bey, etc. were there & went on to have big combines.

It's disappointing. It's like he didn't even prepare for this.

Vernon is the combine GOAT.

It’s downright racist.

This is probably going to make him fall. It’s going to cost him on his rookie deal, but some team is going to get a good player at a bargain price. He played too well against too good of competition for too long for these combine numbers to mean he’s a bad player.

The only red flag I’d see is maybe he just doesn’t want to play enough to treat it like a career.

The dude worked his ass off at Oklahoma. It's shocking that he mailed this in.
