Man Falk is crap. Premium bantha fodder

Rosen looks like the best pure passer. One concern is that he's not very mobile and lacks foot speed. You wonder if he's going to be injured a lot when he can't elude the rush.

You don't have to be fast to elude the rush.

This... as bad as we are this year, we got to be undone by the Flush-It-Downs.

Rosen is no Manning in comparison...

From a 2016 article about Rosen, then a sophomore. The tennis player aspect is interesting.
"Rosen's story includes two fairly unique attributes. The first is that Rosen is very intelligent, so much so that his desire to understand things for himself rather than taking coaches at their word was labeled as a potential problem by Trent Dilfer after Rosen's Elite 11 camp. The same ability to learn that saw him prepare for college with AP credits (in subjects like physics, no less) that will allow him to graduate in three years also shows up in his ability to understand defenses.
The other unique skill Rosen brings to the table is footwork. Although he only ran a 4.99 40-yard dash in the SPARQ test as a recruit, Rosen pulled off a 4.25 shuttle time that compares favorably to many of the DBs he's working against.
Rosen is excellent at making quick moves in the pocket to buy time to throw. He's not a scrambler or a guy who should be carrying the ball on designed runs, but his ability to buy time or thwart pass-rushers with a few moves is more than a little valuable. Most interestingly, Rosen's plus footwork sprang in part from his past as a tennis player." https://www.sbnation.com/college-football/2016/6/13/11886520/josh-rosen-ucla-quarterback-jim-mora

He's got some Eli in him. And I still think Rosen's footwork is very much like Peyton.

True,. But ability to run when needed is sometimes a real asset.

brady, ryan, and cousins seem to do okay not getting injured. Its all about a quick release, feeling the pressure, and stepping up in the pocket

Rosen isn't a statue lol he doesn't need 4.6 speed to run for a 1st. He has phenomenal footwork, which is way more important than being fast. That's how guys like Brady and Manning get rarely get sacked despite being slow as f**k.

Gimme Peyton manning/Tom Brady over Kaepernick any day. Just gotta feel the pocket and shift around.
