It is common in guys who did a lot of roll outs or did a lot of scrambling in college. Allen actually fits in the Wentz/Dak mold he can break tackles in the pocket and can run when he needs to. I like to use the Big Ben comparison but Wentz is a good comparison footwork wise. Wentz had issues over throwing guys when his footwork got bad and it was pretty inconsistent at times in college, but he had a better supporting cast around him to make up for it. 

Go back and watch the tape, when Allen gets a chance to set his feet in the pocket accuracy isn't an issue. The problem was he didn't get that chance to throw from a clean pocket often in college. I was actually impressed his accuracy was as good as it was when he was on the run. 

Dak still had a higher completion percentage every year in college than what Allen had. Wentz too.
And Carson Wentz had better receivers at a D2 school compared to Allen, who played in the MWC? MWC should pull better players than a D2 school overall.

I get what you're saying, but Josh Allen's stats still reveal a guy who was incredibly inaccurate.
I don't think he'll go to a team that constantly gives him a clean pocket, and therefore he'll likely really struggle for at least his first couple years while he develops.

All I'm saying is the team that drafts him has to understand the risk and be willing to accept he's not NFL-ready out of the gate.
