Josh Rosen says NFL teams made 'nine mistakes' by passing on him in draft

It was surprising, but it wasn't. If you've watched UCLA football for the last three years, you've seen this before.

In Josh Rosen's final play before becoming an NFL quarterback Thursday night, his protection collapsed, his coach offered no help, and the kid was sacked.

The UCLA quarterback was the best quarterback in the draft, yet he was only the fourth quarterback taken because some teams didn't understand him.

The Arizona Cardinals traded up and smartly grabbed him, but only after he was repeatedly ignored by some teams who clearly felt he was just too smart.
