I wasn't impressed with Baker's accuracy or Allen during the practices. Thought they both missed some gimme throws. Allen was a little better in the game. After a slow 1st half stepped it up in the second half.

I like Baker as prospect. Posted about him earlier. But I expected him to show much better then he did at the Senior Bowl practices and game.
Maybe it was just the portions that I saw...but he didn't live up to my expectations or to the reports I saw from the Senior Bowl practices. I thought both were easily out played by Mike White and Kyle Lauletta. Some of that could be due to coaching...i thought O'Brien and Ryan schemes were just better imho BUT those QBs still had to make the throws and they did.

These are the players that flashed to me....they span the gamut from top prospect to "late round" picks.......

Gesicki TE Norte Dame
Blanden FS UVA
Reaves S
Henderson FS Hawaii
OLB - Ogbonnia Okoronkwo

I agree. Baker Mayfield did not look good in the game.
I think it is easy to look good in practice. You know you are not going to get hit.
In a live game in a pro system I thought he looked slow and out of sync.
I really liked the tall skinny QB WKU Mike White. Looked relaxed and much more accurate in hooking on the long throw to LSU WR, who also looked good.

All of the QBs in this draft have some serious questions. Glad we don't have to hang our season on a rookie QB. We can draft a guy this year or next year to learn for a couple seasons first.

Yup, Mike White and Kyle Lualetta both looked good and they're supposedly mid to late round prospects would love to see either of them picked up by Jay.
