Which QB prospect would you take first?

I could easily see 5 QBs going in the first round this year between the Jets, Jags, 49ers/Redskins (depending where Cousins goes), Giants, Steelers, Saints, and Cardinals. In what is supposed to be a loaded QB class, who would you take first?
Prospects in no particular order:
Mason Rudolph (OK State)
Nick Fitzgerald (Miss State)
Sam Darnold (USC)
Lamar Jackson (Louisville)
Josh Rosen (UCLA)
Luke Faulk (Washington State)
Josh Allen (Wyoming)
Jarrett Stidham (Auburn)
Clayton Thorson (Northwestern)
Jake Browning (Washington)
Kyle Allen (Houston)
Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma)
Personally I'd take Allen from Wyoming or Rosen from UCLA first. Allen has a strong arm and has good decision-making whereas Rosen has both those plus that "It" factor. I like Darnold but I need to see more. I like Fitzgerald but I'd take him in the second and develop him. Same with Mayfield but I'd go with him the second/third.

Right now I'd take Rosen

Allen's TD:INT ratio and completion % would worry me too much to pick him as a franchise QB. Would be more comfortable with Rosen or Darnold

Darnold
Rosen
Mayfield
Rudolph
Browning
I would not take a Leach QB ever, do not know why everyone is so high on Falk.

Good point but watching his highlights, he seems like he may be pretty good behind a decent offensive line.

Falk
Sounds like this year's Mahomes.

My top four in no order:
Fitzgerald
Rosen
Mayfield
Rudolph

Rosen is the guy that immediately comes to mind. But something about Mayfield, Rudolph & Falk intrigue me.

Does the dumbest things.
The minute he gets in trouble, instead of taking the sack he just chucks the ball up.
And he locks onto one receiver. He's way too loose with the ball - doesn't protect it. He's Cutler 2.0.

Fitzgerald will be back for his senior year. He still has a ways to go with decision making and accuracy.
Hopefully he develops a lot like Dak did from his junior to senior season

So he is a 7 plus year starting QB in the NFL? I would take that.

I'd take Darnold. At first I didn't believe the hype on him and Rosen. I put them both in this box of over media hyped LA QBs. But after watching both play, I think Sam Darnold is the real deal. He's got a great arm, big frame, and makes big plays. Rosen to me is still Overrated. He's got an NFL arm, no doubt, but his consistency and accuracy is off. So Im not buying Rosen, but I'm Buyin into Darnold so far.

Take Fitzgerald and Browning off your list, those guys currently aren't that level of prospect
I think Rosen is the best prospect. He is the most well rounded guy when you look at measurables and performance on the field as a passer.

we can eliminate Rosen as about 5 or so More Sportsers told us he was garbage in week 1

Rosen seems like the best prospect but he does make some iffy decisions. Rudolph has a really nice arm too.

I almost forgot about Browning. Wasn’t he considered the potential first overall pick at one point? Wonder where he’s projecting now.

Allen threw for 64 yards against Oregon. You could give him a mulligan for going against a better team. Then he threw for 92 yards against Hawaii.

When he is rolling, he is a great driver leader. I just don't think he has much to work with at ucla. I think Rosen could be a really good NFL QBs.
On several drives during the Memphis and A&m games he just gets locked in and you knew they were going to score.
