Gotta say, if Jake Haener has another great game or two, definitely think he needs to get back on radars.  He was going into the year, looked awesome upsetting UCLA, then injured, now back and crushing it.  Had a beautiful NFL level fade route on the money in the Friday UNLV game.  He's really looking interesting to me.  Young, 6'1 (but needs to fill out his frame), nice arm, really nice anticipation and quick with progressions.  No glaring mechanical issues either.  Just a bit light framed.

Haven't seen any of his games.

Didn’t realize he was back. These West Coast guys are flying under the radar. Apparently Tanner McKee has a lot of good qualities, just has a bad OL and not many weapons (similar to Levis). Penix is shredding it every week and needs some taking heads to take notice.

Totally.  It's the same group people were hyping up ~1.5 years ago, think a lot have either gone through a lull or the preseason hype of a few was louder and muted the others.

Haener is a bit more of a longshot due to his size, but him and all the transfers in the Pac-12 are actually quite interesting.  I do know McKee is high on scout radars per my one connection I have in pro football (scouting side in the bay area).

Not in the SEC and generally late games, so the national media doesn't pay as much attention.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
