If we're talking whose made consistent Sunday-level throws...I'm ALL in on Clayton Tune.  My suspicion is teams have noticed; he just seems like a dude. Stone cold.

O'Connell and Haener have impressed me as well.  Even with the school returns, there's a lot more mid-round talent than usual at the QB spot.  Not many top-of-draft guys, but a lot in the likes of how ones like Minshew, Prescott, Cousins, & Love were viewed as prospects.  I like them better than last year's round 3 batch, but not enough to have as top-end 1sts.  

My Current Rankings:

1. Bryce Young (Top 5)

2. CJ Stroud (Top 12)

3. Anthony Richardson (Top 20)

*4- Jayden Daniels - Return to LSU? (Rd 1)

4. Tanner McKee (Rd 1-2)

5. Will Levis (Rd 1-2) Yes, I'd rather have Daniels & McKee over Levis

*6- Cameron Ward - Return to WSU? (Rd 2-3)

6. Clayton Tune (Rd 2-3)

7. Aidan O'Connell (Rd 3-4)

8. Max Duggan (Rd 3-4) 

---this is around where I'd peg Corral & Ridder---

9. Jake Haener (Rd 4-6)

10. Jaren Hall (Rd 4-6)

11. Hendon Hooker (Rd 4-6)

I'm pretty much all in on Anthony Richardson at this point. Go big or go home. Take a swing on the boom or bust guy with the highest ceiling in the draft. Yeah, he very well may bust. If he does, swing again. But when you're mired in mediocrity you have to take chances. Taking a "safe" QB is just asking for more perpetual mediocrity. Stroud and Young are going to be out of reach. Hell, depending on the interview process Richardson very well may be too.

I agree on the philosophy and we may honestly end up in a very ideal spot to land him. 

The Richardson, FA/Darnold, & Corral route may be one to go for our QB group.  

And then, if we like a guy later to take a stab on in R4-6, might as well.  Competition never hurts.

Knowing Young is going before we can pick, Richardson has as much upside as any of the others.  He gives you redzone and short yardage gold as well.  If he has the desire and work ethic to be great he can be a difference maker.  
 

I think you better to be ready to always be wanting more with passing accuracy with him.  He is wildly inaccurate at times.  Just fact.  Still, I can’t wait to see Stroud against Georgia because Richardson as the #2 guy in this draft isn’t a stretch.

If Young doesn’t go #1 I will be shocked.  He is clearly the best QB

Todd McShay had Detroit taking CJ Stroud in his mock today.  Gotta say my first thought was is CJ Stroud better than Jared Goff?  Really don’t think they would pick him.  Not seeing it.  They need defense and they are seriously on the rise.  
 

CJ dropping is a possibility.  Average athlete and he is being a bit overrated right now

You have Jayden in the first?  If he gets told he has a first round grade he might leave early, but I am not 100% sure he will...

Right there was a solid 3rd round that suddenly went poof!image.png.b08b7739c6489f8d062b221c3fd98375.png

I'm honestly not sure if D.J. would've even been signed as a UDFA. Dude looked legitimately terrible. He's probably headed to a non-P5 school because I'm not sure there's a P5 team out there that will guarantee him a starting spot.

That's me, may not be popular but totally think he could be a first rounder.  Has too many tools to pass on from my view.  He had a phenomenal year and has as much upside as AR but is miles more refined as a passer.  Had some great wins, tight throws, accurate, NFL arm, and is a madman on his feet.  He beefed up from 185 to around 200 this year, so has conditioned himself into quite the ideal size.  I think he's the total package AZ State fans thought he could become.

He is definitely flying under the radar. Only threw 3 INTs last year playing in a tough conference.

      2025 QB Draft Class

      By Martin · Posted

      Ward could fly up the rankings with a good year.

      What do you grade this draft?

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Ask me in five years whether this draft class was good or not. Having said that, I'll grade the 2019 draft... R1 P16: Brian Burns - I'll argue this was a good pick. At the minimum, he was worth enough to have gotten a seriously good offer of picks which, in retrospect, we should've taken. But we still got something for him and his new team gave him a ton of money. R2 P37: Greg Little - Utter and complete flop. Only real value was somehow getting a 7th rounder from the Dolphins. R3 R100: Will Grier  - Played godawful the rare times he was on the field. Somehow still in the league. R4 P115: Christian Miller - Nothing of note. R5 P154: Jordan Scarlett - I don't think he even lasted two years. R6 P212: Dennis Daley - Some flashes of promise but we eventually traded him for some picks. Was terrible in Tennessee. I'll consider this a success since we got picks back. R7 P237: Terry Godwin - Did not last here long at all.  In summary, we got one quality starter... who is now gone. Daley might've been the second best player of this class and he was a middling backup at best. Burns saved this class from being a complete disaster.  D+

      You can add that to the assessment of the whole offseason, but not the draft itself
