I still compare him to Josh Allen in regards to floor and ceiling.
Love makes sense as a Rd 2 QB, as you said. If a team with an established veteran (like GB or NO) liked him enough to gamble on turning that potential into reality, I could even see him late Rd 1. I don't want him as a Bengal because I don't have confidence the Bengals can adequately groom a QB. We gave them optimism last offseason, but after watching how abysmal Finley was (whom they traded up for), it'd be an uphill climb for any QB who isn't NFL-ready already.
His floor is to wash out after his rookie deal because he never proves he can read a complex defense. He is about as risky of a pick as you can make in the 1st round as it stands and nothing from the senior bowl or his tape of the season makes you feel "safe". He is a project QB with some upside and a ton of risk. The fact he compared his floor to Cousins is comical because what makes Cousins so safe is his willingness to check down and avoid turnovers, that is about the opposite of Love.
