Quarterbacks

First off just want to say thanks for being one of the few sites with current devy rankings. All 3 of your rankers have updated theirs within past 5 days. Whereas some bigger sites don't even update their dynasty rankings more than once a year. It's a big reason why I find myself visiting your site more than any other recently.
RB and WR tend to be the focus in devy, and your rankings are very similar to how I have them slotted. QB and TE tend to be harder to evaluate, and thus these positions are often bypassed in drafts. Your QB rankings are quite different from mine so wanted to discuss.
Does anybody have a legit 40 time for Deshaun Foster ? 4.89 is the most common time I've seen for him. But that can't be right. Between his iffy speed and slight frame (6'3" and 188) can't see him becoming an NFL QB.
Curious to see Cardale Jones ranked but not J.T. Barrett. While I don't expect Barrett to be an elite pro, feel much better about his chances than Jones. Jones has too much in common with JaMarcus Russell, and not just their size. There were many off-field concerns about Jones which were never made public.
When it comes to prototypical pocket passers, can't argue with Hackenberg. Expected to see Cody Kessler and Connor Cook on the list though. NFL scouts seem high on both. I prefer Kessler and wonder if recent failures of USC QB's is causing people to undervalue him. I will be shocked if Jared Goff is a better pro than either Kessler or Cook.
Boykin came out of nowhere and seems to be one of those who is better suited for college than pros. Just don't think he has an NFL arm. Glad he is staying in school, as another year of tape will help us determine how he projects.
Looking forward to seeing more activity in the Devy Forum during the offseason.
