College pass attempts: 1,685 Straight up: I just love the arm talent. I know about the injury history, but this guy throws a beautiful deep ball. Other than CJ Stroud, I can’t really think of another recent college quarterback that has thrown a better deep ball. You’d have to go back to Joe Burrow, I… Read More 2024 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #4 Michael Penix
Career college pass attempts: 713 Okay, I’m doing this out of order, but I just wanted to write about McCarthy before I get to the other guys, because to me, this is more of an interesting topic than other guys. So let’s get into it. I’ve been one of the biggest McCarthy haters, full disclosure.… Read More 2024 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #5 JJ McCarthy
I do this annually before the draft, and I like to think I’m pretty good at it–or at least that I can see when the “consensus” is wrong.

I understand the hype around this kid. Really, I do. I get why people say he shares a lot of the same traits as Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers. He can throw on the run; he’s got that flair where he makes impossible throws look easy. Really, I understand the hype. I’m sure everyone has… Read More 2021 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #3, Zach Wilson
For most of the past two years, Justin Fields has been the consensus #2 quarterback behind Trevor Lawrence.

He… Read More 2021 NFL Draft QB Rankings: #2 Justin Fields
When news broke last week that the 49ers had traded up to the #3 pick from their original #12 spot, you didn’t have to be a genius to surmise that they did so with the intent of taking a quarterback. And since it’s almost a certainty that both Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson will be… Read More 🤯 Did the 49ers Trade Up to Draft Mac Jones?
People are looking at the rookie season successes of guys like Justin Herbert and Joe Burrow and already concluding that Tua is a bust for the Dolphins and that he doesn’t have what it takes to be a Super Bowl-caliber NFL quarterback. Since Justin Herbert and Joe Burrow were NFL-ready and hit the ground running… Read More The Dolphins Shouldn’t Give Up on Tua
Today as I was listening to some sports talk shows, the topic of Matt Stafford’s likely departure from Detroit after the season came up. Naturally it didn’t take long for the show’s hosts to speculate about the potential of Matt Stafford to the Patriots. The Patriots are always rumored to be among the top destinations… Read More Could Matt Stafford End Up on the Patriots in 2021?
