then let's hope he doesn't get drafted by the bills. 4 years of woods' career wasted in that place.

Appreciate everyone's input here. My rookie analysis starts and largely ends with these kinds of threads and some perusal of pundit rankings and articles. At the very end, I'll watch some tape to see if the guys I like (through osmosis) pass my eye test.

Wish I had more time to devote, so I could do a proper study...

How do you guys rank this years QB class vs last? I have Burrow ahead of Kyler, and I would have had Tua ahead of him, but due to injuries I have to knock him down below. I have a tough time with Herbert. He has way more experience than Haskins did, and he can move a bit better, so I am tempted to say I have Herbert slightly above Haskins, and Jones. Sorry. As prospects. I would have Jones above Herbert now.

Is this based on how you viewed Kyler as a prospect last year or now? Kyler just had an amazing rookie year and QBs are so hard to predict.

I’ve got
Kyler
Burrow
Jones
Tua(never loved Tua)
Haskins
Lock
Herbert

Burrow has a high ceiling no doubt but can’t put him over Kyler yet. I have not been doing the most in-depth QB scouting the last couple years ever since my jets took Sam Darnold finally so grain of salt.

My rankings were based on college, not with Kyler's rookie year as part of it, so I get it.

Great work and analysis, thanks man! Curious to find out what you think of Cam Akers.

I can't seem to get a read on Akers, done analyst have him as possibly the best RB in this class (potential) and others have him going undrafted.

Hopefully he rises close to the draft or goes to chiefs as I have basically picks 1.05 to 1.09. would push more talent my way.

I'd stop reading anyone that has Akers going undrafted. That's next gen level of stupid.

With Najee and Chuba likely returning to school, it leaves the back half of the 1st round pretty devoid of RB options, Akers seems like the only one you can get past 1.6.

Players typically don't announce while they are still playing in the CFP, Tee Higgins is another big name in that game who has yet to announce.

I figured, just thought there may be some indication. We basically knew Swift and Jeudy were declaring. Higgins would shock me if he returned, but Clyde wouldn't surprise me, even though I believe he should declare.

With Burrow leaving, it would be insane for Clyde to return.
