2018 NFL Draft: Key strengths and weaknesses for Josh Allen
Josh Allen is a projected top-10 pick, but not everyone is sold on his abilities. What are Allen’s strengths and weaknesses entering the 2018 NFL Draft?
When the 2018 NFL Draft officially begins, few players will be monitored as closely as quarterback Josh Allen. The Wyoming Cowboys standout has earned top-pick hype and top-15 guarantees from a segment of fans and analysts alike.
As the 2018 NFL Draft nears, however, skepticism continues to grow as far as how realistic Allen’s franchise quarterback potential truly is.
Allen comes from a school in the Mountain West Conference, which has inevitably limited his exposure. A vast majority of his internet critics haven’t dissected his film, and a fair number of his supporters are basing their evaluation off of upside alone.
That makes for a polarizing situation, as Allen is projected by some as the potential No. 1 overall draft pick and by others as a player who doesn’t deserve a Round 1 grade.
Regardless of which side of the debate you fall on, Allen is a player who’s garnering significant attention at the NFL level. There are weaknesses that he’ll be tasked with working through, but there are also strengths that few others possess.
The question is: What are the key strengths and weaknesses that make Wyoming Cowboys quarterback Josh Allen such a compelling prospect in the 2018 NFL Draft?
