He takes some chances, but that is somethign that I would welcome with AJ on the field. It seems like Dalton is always airmailing the ball out of bounds. With our defense, he can afford to take a few chances with AJ.
Now, if we are sitting at #5 and it looks like a QB that we want might go ahead of use, we need to use some of these comp picks and move up a couple spots and get somebody.
I didn't much for Josh Rosen previously because of his lower completion percentage in college compared to some other QBs. I like QBs who have 65% or higher at least in their final year in college. Rosen's first two years were 59-60%. I was really worried about his accuracy, as I've read the same concerns in some scouting reports.
From watching some film on Rosen though, his receivers did drop a lot of passes. This year he's at 65% but I'll be keeping an eye on him to see if that holds up.
I'd be fine with either Darnold, Rosen, or Falk. I will be irritated if Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson are picked by the Bengals. I don't think they will succeed in the NFL.
Mason Rudolph may be ok, but from the few games I've watched of him, he didn't feel pressure well. Plus, I get worried Rudolph is a clone of Brandon Weeden.
Also, I disagree with Dalton not taking chances downfield. He's actually thrown a decent number of interceptions when trying to force it to AJ Green downfield.

Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. Ended 9-8 but barely missed playoffs
Changes needed to do better in Sept/Oct moving forward.
