NFL - Josh Rosen's footwork and mechanics make him as pretty a quarterback as you will find in this year's draft. The biggest concern with Rosen is that his on-field success requires many elements to stay on schedule. He lacks plus arm strength, so identifying coverage (pre- and post-snap) and throwing with anticipation takes on added importance. Rosen has the pocket poise, accuracy and intelligence to become a good NFL starter, but he needs to be willing to take what defenses give him more frequently. Rosen will need to quell concerns surrounding leadership and coachability early on in order to establish a strong first impression and get his career off on the right foot.
DLF - Combine review There were few surprises with UCLA’s quarterback Josh Rosen. He is considered by many as the top prospect at the position for dynasty leagues, although he may not be the first signal-caller drafted in the NFL. Rosen has ideal size at 6’4” and over 225 pounds, but that was never really in doubt as it was for other quarterback prospects. Rosen did pretty much everything at the Combine, but what is most important for him is likely to be the behind the scenes interviews with teams. There are evidently still some concerns about Rosen’s personality and attitude, which could slightly hurt him in a crowded quarterback class.
CBS - Smooth pocket passer with textbook delivery, consistent spiral and great arm strength. Accruacy isn't an issue. Good, not great moving inside the pocket. Same goes for downfield ball placement. Has tendency to force throws into dangerous situations, especially when improvising.
DLF - PROJECTED ROOKIE DRAFT RANGE Our Rookie ADP currently has the top four quarterbacks going within six picks of each other, starting at pick 19 with Baker Mayfield. Rosen comes in behind Lamar Jackson with an ADP of 22, but if you feel strongly about Rosen I wouldn’t hesitate to grab him in the mid second round. He likely won’t be there by the next time you pick, and you wouldn’t want to pass up on someone who can be your QB1 for years. Personally where I would take any quarterback would depend on the construct of my team, how old my current QB1 is etc. In a vacuum, I would take Mayfield and Jackson before Rosen, and wouldn’t take any before late round two in a one-quarterback league. Players such as Michael Gallup, James Washington, Dante Pettis, Anthony Miller, and even Mike Gesicki are going right before them and will likely have well-defined roles and a path to targets in year one, which should only boost their dynasty value and help them see more targets in the future.
