Message: [QUOTE="Melancer46, post: 2418603, member: 1674"] I literally like all of them except for Rudolph. Before really playing around with these numbers, I had them ranked: 1. Sam Darnold 2. Lamar Jackson 3. Josh Allen 4. Baker Mayfield 5. Josh Rosen After all of this, I think I'd move Lamar up to my #1 spot; I just think he's incredibly underrated as a passer (ex: Todd McShay is quoted saying it would be irresponsible for any team to draft him in the first 3 rounds unless they want him as a WR) while also being the best running QB we've seen since Michael Vick, if not better. I still like Darnold, but his numbers really surprised me. I knew he struggled with his deep ball this season, but I expected him to fare much better than he did. I still like Allen; I knew the numbers would hate him and his bust rate is probably very high, but his potential is just out of this world. Mayfield is a really gifted passer while also playing in a great college system. Rosen looks a bit better than I expected; people knock him (myself included) for really struggling dealing with pressure, and he has struggled to an extent (see his passer rating when under pressure), but his adjusted completion percentage when dealing with pressure is definitely better than I expected it to be. I think flipping Lamar and Darnold is the only change I'd make despite some of that flying in the face of the charts. If you don't have much of an appetite for risk, I'd personally go with Lamar or Mayfield. I just think Lamar is so gifted as a runner while also being adequate as a passer, that most OCs will be able to find a way to make it work with him. Mayfield throws with tremendous accuracy; as long as you can create a system that gives him lanes to see around the O-Line, I think he's going to be a starting QB for a long time. [/QUOTE]
