Serious accuracy issues with this guy. Jemarcus Russel was a better passer in college.

In no scenario would I be ok with drafting Lamar Jackson. It will end up being a wasted pick.

Johnny Manziel nailed it. Think he score upper 30. Means nothing IMO. Many pro bowlers did awful on it. Nothing to do with football instincts.

He's a bigger armed, more athletic Aaron Brooks. Now, sitting for two years behind Drew and with Payton, the Saints could do worse. I personally say no. I really believe Mayfield is going to fall. Other than him, I think the Saints need to draft at any other position.

Aaron Brooks had an absolute cannon. I watched him win the long ball contest at a QB challenge one year throwing the ball 78 yds. Aaron Brooks had a cannon he just had a long windup and slow release. Personally, I say Taysom Hill is bigger and just as fast as Lamar Jackson. Why draft Lamar Jackson when we've got a similair athlete on the roster already?

Can he read a defense because most qb can make throws without a rush and not needing to read a defense..

I would pass...

Strong arm. Amazing athlete.

But... weird mechanics. inaccurate passer. Never looked like a game changer in the big matchups.

He’ll definitely be there at 27 because he needs time to develop. I’m hoping we nab a player who can be a day 1 starter.

He has accuracy issues but I'm not worried about him learning the playbook. Bobby Patrino has a complex playbook. I Hate Louisville because I am a Kentucky fan but this kids skills are crazy. His character is top notch and his offensive line sucked badly. My only worry is accuracy and mid range passes.

Pass on QB this year. The ones at the top aren’t worth being selected there.
Darnold is a turnover machine, Allen misses open receivers, Rosen will more than likely be injured more than he plays.
