Okay, so WHAT exactly is so goddamn great about the 2018 QB class?

Losing 2.5 times more games than we did this year is unlikely. Moreover if we got there, it is unlikely Dorsey would trade the farm for a guy.

RE: Darnold. He had 3/4 of a season, was beat out in camp and is from USC. Why are people all over this dude's junk?

USC's season totally turned around when Darnold was named the starter. He has leadership, he can scramble, he has a lightening fast release, is accurate on the run. He isn't the prototypical USC QB in the Palmer, Booty, Leinart model. He had to play with less talent due to sanctions.

Falk is Brady-like. Very accurate on short passes even to the side lines. Has a surprising deep ball but it is not his main weapon. He can scramble a bit but prefers not to. The knock on him is that he holds the ball far to long sometimes.

Rosen I am not totally sold on. He had a great beginning of a freshman year but has cooled off a lot since then. There is also injury history there that might be concerning.

Right. He did that on 3/4 of a season. He looks the part but how many have and have taken steps back during their college careers?

It is really pretty dumb to make decisions for the now based on what some college kid may do in a year.

He may regress but I think the kid has it.

Let's say it's Darnold and Falk.

Again, what good does that do the Chiefs? We have no shot at them.

Let's say Mitch Trubisky falls to 27. How is he not just as good of a prospect as Josh ****ing Allen, a guy who threw a zillion picks playing in the Mountain West?
