You can keep using this site all you want, among trusted scouting services there isn’t a consensus order. Any Joe Schmo throwing mocks around doesn’t matter.
Can you not read? First, the Oregon and NCST games were not bad by any stretch. You keep lying about 4 games. GT was a bad game, but not as bad as Strouds Northwestern game. And the Clemson game was bad for Maye, but they were completely overmatched in terms of talent. Ohio St has the talent advantage over everyone they play, by a lot.
Be careful of the mis-/disinformation campaigns waged by scouts through the media. Warren Sapp slipped on draft day because of "Mary Jane and Coke" rumors and ended up being a HOFer at the 12th pick.
Honestly within this QB class I think you could find a serviceable player in later rounds like Hooker or Cam Ward. They all have question marks and they all need certain things to go in their favor to reach their floors. Too risky for my taste. Build up the defense!
Thought this was an interesting breakdown and believe he nailed the assessment, except for we don't know how his body will hold up in the NFL.
https://theathletic.com/697139/2018/12/06/usc-commit-2020-bryce-young-kliff-kingsbury-texas-tech/ Bryce Young had not yet completed eighth grade, but his private quarterback coach, Danny Hernandez, did what he does with most of his quarterbacks. In order to aid his pupil’s recruiting process, Hernandez had a highlight video made for Young — now a junior at Mater Dei — and sent it off to several college coaches. Hernandez thought the video turned out great. Kliff Kingsbury, then-Texas Tech’s head coach, liked what he saw, too. “Kliff Kingsbury was the first coach to reply to me on the video,” Hernandez said. “He was like, ‘Wow, how many offers does this kid have?’ I said, ‘He doesn’t have any yet but hopefully you’re the first one, Coach.’ ” Kingsbury couldn’t offer Young a scholarship based off what he saw from that video, but he told Hernandez if Young, then 14 years old, came to a camp and looked like he did on film, it would be a pretty good situation. Hernandez conveyed that to Young and his father, Craig. At the time, Young didn’t have any offers, which was fairly normal considering he was only in the eighth grade. Young, who will play for a CIF state title against De La Salle (Concord, Calif.) on Saturday, laughs when he thinks about it, but made the trip to Lubbock, Texas for a camp at Texas Tech. “Looking back at it, it was a little premature,” Young said earlier this week, “but I was kind of offer-hungry.” Texas Tech was the first school that Young visited other than USC. The camp, though, was different in other ways. Mainly, there weren’t a lot of players in attendance. When Young attends a college camp now, he estimates there are about 60 other quarterbacks there. That day at Texas Tech, there were six or seven, he said, which allowed him to work closely with Kingsbury. “I still remember … 30 minutes from the start of the camp,” Hernandez said, “I get a text from Kliff Kingsbury saying, ‘Hey, man. Your boy is as advertised.’” Young thought he performed pretty well that day. After the camp concluded, Young remained on the field and Kingsbury pulled him to the side and became the first collegiate coach to offer him a scholarship. “I was in such a rush. I don’t know why,” Young said. “I was in eighth grade, and I don’t know. I had been trying (to get an offer) for way too long at that age. It was just really a blessing. “I knew the stakes a little bit. … But once I finally performed and he told me I had an offer, I was truly ecstatic. It was definitely, I would say, one of the best moments of my life.” Hernandez still has the voicemail saved on his phone from when Young and his father called him to share news of the offer. Young said he and his father celebrated that night by going to the best steakhouse in Lubbock. In an interview with The Clarion-Ledger two years ago, Kingsbury was asked what it takes for quarterbacks to be successful in the “Air Raid” offense. He replied: “The great ones I’ve coached, it’s that ability to extend the play, keep your eyes downfield. You’ve got five guys out most of the time on every route and if you can extend the play, someone is going to uncover. It’s going to be hard for a defense to keep up with guys that long.” With that in mind, it’s easy to understand why Kingsbury offered Young, who is now listed at 6-feet and 176 pounds. In his three years of high school football, Young — the top-ranked dual-threat quarterback in the 2020 recruiting cycle — has displayed an ability to consistently extend plays and make off-schedule throws. It’s probably his greatest strength. “That guy will (create) something out of nothing,” Hernandez said. “Why I think coaches were not really turned off by him not being 6-foot-3 or 6-foot-4, is his ability to throw off-platform … and his ability to throw from different arm angles.” Young never took Kingsbury up on that scholarship offer, instead committing to USC over Washington and Oklahoma in July. But because Kingsbury was the first to offer him, he always rooted for Texas Tech and the coach to succeed. He’s paid attention to Kingsbury’s offense, the stuff they ran, the diversity they utilized.
So much for fronting like we're going all Defense with Demeco's defensive background. Now everyone is projecting BY. Secret is out.
Why should the Texans be the team that has to find out if Young can handle the NFL when they don't have to be? Because of the media hype machine?
Because maybe they feel he has the ability to lead the franchise for the next 15 years, weight be damned?
Crazy what the Internet will turn up. QBs under 200 lbs that played in the NFL, damned if I know any of them... https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/nfl-quarterbacks-under-200-pounds
Probably because this list is for some odd reason relegated to those that played in the late 30s to mid 40s. It's definitely missing more successful guys like Starr, Unitas, Tarkenton, Staubach, Griese, Theisman, Jaworski, and Jim McMahon. That's just Super Bowl quarterbacks, and doesn't include guys like Flutie. Montana was 6'2" 205...supposedly. There's literally dozens and dozens that were decent quarterbacks or good backups that aren't included on that site... Very odd post... ... Not to mention, these guys all played in an era where the NFL didn't care so much about protecting the QB, defenders would routinely, purposely fall on the QB with full weight, and much more was legal...
Ah, gotcha. My bad, I just typed in NFL Quarterbacks under 200 lbs, should gave spent more time looking at it.
Size being his only concern reminded me of a certain famous power forward with rebounding prowess that was rumored to be closer to 6 feet 4 7/8 inches tall rather than the listed 6' 6 inches .. sometimes, when you're special, you're just special and you can overcome- (ps Jordan was also officially measured at 6′4 3/4 by the US Olympics team- same as Charles Barkley, who he admitted himself, in his book, to standing 6′4 3/4″.)
