Interesting take from Hobspin on AFCN

Yep! 

And people keep forgetting that Mayfield had a pretty good cast last season but aside from beating up on us and Atlanta he looked pretty ordinary at best with a real turnover problem. In fact there were only two teams he played twice - our all time bad defense and the Rats. Our defense was a total sieve and unable to stop either run or pass. The Rats made him look bad. 

Jackson I maintain is essentially Terrell Pryor II. He should be moved to WR as he has zero touch, one speed on his throws and no real pocket play skills. I suspect after this season the Rats will take a real QB early and do exactly that.
