|
|
|
I really followed this class of QBs that entered college a couple of years ago. Most of them seem to be making a name for themselves. Most of them present a dual threat capability. Who will be the bigger prospect by the time their done? Rank em if you can.
Off the top of my head
Brett Hundley
Teddy Bridgewater
Johnny Manziel
Braxton Miller
Marcus Mariotta
Evert Golson
Jeff Driskel
Max Whittek (sp) USC QB

Manziel, Golson, and Miller are way too high on your list. _________________

| I dont like any of those guys except Teddy and Wittek. Johnny might be able to pull it off but Im not 100% sold yet. Your other guys are better athletes than QB's. |

Bridgewater and Brett Smith are the clear 1-2, after that it's still too murky. _________________

Smith is not a "clear" anything at this point. |

| Anybody else see Golson as a Russell Wilson type guy? He is obviously not as good yet but he does have a huge arm and is pretty mobile. |

No. Wilson was an amazing QB who was too short. Golson is an amazing athlete. _________________

Way too early labeling him as a RB playing QB. He's done pretty much what we've asked him this year. Make plays with his legs and limit his mistakes.
I think Golson can progress to be a heck of a QB. _________________

Let's not compare him to RW, who if just 3 inches taller, would have been a first round pick, probably top 10 at worst. _________________

Golsons physical traits remind me of Wilson's traits. Golson has a huge arm, like I said, Golson needs to develop more but I don't think it's too crazy to think Golson could be the next Rus Wilson. |

They're pretty similar in terms of physical traits...It's a good comparison... _________________

If he is not he is at least very close, he is far better as a prospect than anyone the OP named other than Bridgewater and possibly Mariotta.
Wittek has yet to take a collegiate snap, we have zero clue of what he offers as a prospect, you cannot rank him period at this stage. _________________ Patrick Peterson - 92 targets, 40 catches allowed, 602 yards, 6 TD's, 7 INT's

Golson's velocity is nowhere near that of Russell Wilson. Wilson's velocity was near elite coming out of the draft last year. He can make those stick throws outside the numbers, Golson cannot. _________________ Patrick Peterson - 92 targets, 40 catches allowed, 602 yards, 6 TD's, 7 INT's
