Easy to have "it" playing for USC.

Maybe 10 years ago....he carried that team on 3 big drives all over 80 yards.

Darnold has all of the physical tools to be a franchise NFL QB.

Nobody has more physical tools in this draft than Josh Allen.
Tools alone, however, don't equate to a great quarterback.

I think Sam Darnold has all the potential in the world, he just needs to be coached up and have a great work ethic. i dont know if he is getting either of those right now.
He has an incredible arm and consistently throws into beautiful tight windows, but he also has thrown too many picks and had a lot more lucky breaks on the pick being dropped.
I think he should do another year of college and then go into the draft and still should sit a year in the pros learning.
He reminds me of stafford!

LOL You have to be joking if you think Darnold cant win big games. The kid is 15-2 as a starter at USC including leading the team to 52 points and a win over 5th ranked Penn St in the Rose Bowl. Oh, in that game he only threw for 5 tds and 453 yards. SO much for your big game theory.
As for Allen, he has played 2 decent teams all year and lost to both of them. Against Iowa his offense could muster 3 points. 0 TDS and 2 picks. Against Oregon he was 9-24 with 0 tds and 1 interception and his team got smoked. What big games has he won again?
There isnt a chance Allen gets picked before Darnold or Rosen in the draft.

The guy who completely and utterly s**ts the bed against every decent team he faces? Yeah, there's a winner. Are you his dad/brother?

Darnold isn't draftable right now. His mechanics are poor at best and his mental game needs lots of work.

I don't agree. He's clearly draft able and if he comes out may just be the #1 overall pick. This said he's only 20 and I think would be better served to stay another season in college...it's too bad his coaching staff is incompetent.

umm he played phenomenal in the rose bowl last year. I am not a huge fan of Darnold and his mechanics but he is slowly growing on me. But Josh Allen?? if we pick him in the first round I would be livid. I grade him as a 3rd rounder that will probably get inflated to the 1st due to his position and potential.
