 Mayfield has had some off field issues that will drop him...Rosen 3rd is a head scratcher...I still like the son of Zeus as our #1 and maybe we double down Norman style and grab Mayfield in the second and catch lighting in a bottle twice with a talented prospect falling to Day 2 because of off field concerns...Price in the 3rd and we have our OL rebuild done and a QB to possibly build on...

I have no idea who son of Zeus is or what Norman style is, and I guess I could google all linemen named Price, but thanks for the cryptic cool kids code ring info...

I guess the depth of your college football knowledge is limited to Ann Arbor. 

Son of Zeus: Orlando Brown
Double down Norman style: drafting two players from Norman, Oklahoma
Price: Billy Price from Ohio State (you'd think a big time Michigan fan would be at least somewhat familiar with the roster of their chief rival)

Don't be a dick to me. I'll have to be a dick back...and I'm far better at being a dick...

I've come to realize I want a bigger QB. That crosses Mayfield off the list for me. I will stay in Oklahoma though. I'm going to start researching Mason Rudolph of Ok State.

I am a huge fan of Rosen. I really think he has something special to him. Sucks we have to look for a QB yet again.

Very sad indeed. So - who do you want doing our shopping?

What I really want is a decent developmental QB.  Maybe we got that with Sloter finally.

Mayfield seems pretty slippery...he does look maxed out already...but, Brees isn't any bigger nor is Wilson...definitely worth another look...

Not a big college football fan but I am now watching QB's for us next year.  Sam Darnold from USC was god awful last night.  Some really poor decisions, bad throws, several fumbles could not have looked worse.  Hate to judge on a one game scale but that performance will be very difficult for me to get past.

Comps to Chase Daniel, Colt McCoy, and MANZIEL?? Wow, Mayfield scares me badly. We see a million stories about Brees and Wilson but little mention of the hundreds of undersized college QBs that just slide from their rookie training camp to the waiver wire.

It hasn't been just one game. He's been off the whole year. This after being called the best QB since John Elway by one scout. He's going to drop dramatically. But I'm intrigued.

Oh, he'll go back to school, have a fresh shot for the 2019 draft...

It hasn't been just one game. He has major flaws it seems
