They actually think that Allen from Wyoming has the most potential but is the most raw. Both agree that Rosen is the most ready to step in immediately but might not have as high of an upside as several of the other guys.
Kiper and McShay don't work for or in the NFL. The fact that his numbers are better this year than his Heisman should tell you something. It's hilarious that you mention him playing WR in the NFL

But they are well known as basically reporters who concentrate on the NFL draft. I was just letting people know what the guys who do that for a living think. They have sources among the NFL scouts so they aren't accurate all of the time but they aren't just some message board jockey typing away. They mentioned the possibility of WR just because that would increase his draft stock. If Lamar does have a problem with his accuracy which is more important than actual arm strength in the NFL then he could always switch to WR. It was probably what the Broncos thought when they drafted Tebow but he refused to play anything but QB.

I'm with you bro but Jackson is on another planet in comparison to Tebow. Petrino does a great job at devolping Qbs add well. I would even say better than Mullen with his versatility of style and playcalling.

where are you seeing this? Every draft projection I’ve seen has him 6 or 7th QB
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

I'm not talking NFL analyst I'm basing on my belief. I know there is absolutely no way 5 Qbs better.

The thing is Lamar Jackson is dangerous as a dual threat but he hasn't been consistently accurate enough. The NFL requires at times for QBs to be pocket passers. The big question is during those times is Lamar a good enough QB. That is why Rosen, Darnold, Allen, and Mayfield will go before him.

Check out his stats for this year. The only Qb better is Baker Mayfield
