With UCLA football’s “Chosen One”, QB Josh Rosen, going 10th overall in the 2018 NFL Draft, Bruin fans took to Twitter to voice their pleasure about the strong armed signal caller heading to the Arizona Cardinals.
Former UCLA football QB Josh Rosen has been waiting for this moment his whole life and once it was announced that he was the 10th pick in the NFL Draft, Bruins fans took that moment to show support for their Blue and Gold turned Cardinal Red signal caller.
RELATED: Josh Rosen is picked 10th overall by the Arizona Cardinals
Rosen has had an up and down journey in Westwood which included missing half a season in 2016 and missed two games in 2017 due to injury, had to work with three offensive coordinators in three years and was not able to win a conference championship or a bowl game.
Yet, he put up some of the best stats in the county last season. One of the most telling stats produced by the Chosen One were his 341.5 passing yards per game which was second best in the country. Pretty impressive for a player that everyone said had injury and durability issues.
So now he heads to the Arizona Cardinals who are in the NFC West, one of the toughest divisions in the league, but don’t think that will deter him. He is ready to ball out in the hot Arizona sun and apparently can’t wait to put those pads on for the Cardinals.
But that will come in time. Right now, Rosen is living in the moment (and apparently “pissed” that he was the fourth QB picked in the draft) and fans are right their with him. With that in mind, let us check out what Twitter had to say about the QB heading from Westwood to the Wild West.

Truly believe that @josh3rosen has as unique of a mind as I've ever been around. He loves the game, competes in every element of his life and believe he will thrive in the NFL. + he is the purest passer over last few years to be selected in #NFLDraft cc: @ESPNUonSiriusXM

This night actually unfolded very well for Josh Rosen. Stays on the West Coast and in a QB friendly situation with a stud RB. Plus, if he ever actually needed some added motivation, he got some more tonight.

In a post-draft interview with @NFLNetwork, Josh Rosen said he was 'pissed off' that he had to wait until pick No. 10 to be selected. Also said he just wanted to fly to Arizona and start working right after he was picked.
