I assume you have them listed in order of best to worst. It would be interesting to see that list again 11 months from now.

 

[Oh_Canada]

DeShaun Watson and Kayaa will probably both come out as well.

 

[Aven8]

Just responded to you in the other thread Catch. You're missing Mahomes in that list. Baker Mayfield couldn't hold his jock. If you have seen him play watch some video. He's not your typical spread/Tech QB. He has "it". One of the strongest arms in football, can move, pocket awareness, and is a leader. All that and he's only a junior this upcoming season.

Seen that... I just copied and pasted that list.

 

[Sydla]

Looks like a poor group of QB's compared to this year.

It's list of just seniors to be.

You are missing a ton of guys who will possibly be in the draft........... Watson from Clemson, Kaaya from Miami, Mason from Okie State, the Luke kid from Washington State, Kizer from ND, etc.

 

[funkytown]

This time last year not many had heard of Paxton Lynch or Carson Wentz. Everyone was high on Hackenberg and Connor Cook. I think even Trevone Boykin was being talked about as a potential draft pick at QB.

 

[Plankton]

It's a pretty lousy slate of senior quarterbacks. Joshua Dobbs has some talent, but needs to bulk up and improve on his decision making. Gunner Kiel also has some tools, but has had concussion problems.

 

[knightrider94]

DeShaun Watson and Kayaa will probably both come out as well.

I don't see Watson, Mahomes or Felicia's son on there anywhere.

 

[Hardline]

What about Mahomes from Texas Tech?

 

[Sydla]

That list from CBS is only seniors to be. It doesn't show underclassmen who could enter the draft - so Mahomes, Kaaya, Watson, Luke, Kizer, etc. are under the draft years for when they'd be seniors on CBS.

Not one of the top 2 QB's drafted this year were even mentioned

 

[gimmesix]

Looks like a poor group of QB's compared to this year.

This group was a poor group of QBs until during the 2015 football season, and even after it to some extent.

No telling who will become the apple of analysts' and front office's eyes during and after the 2016 season.

 

[Fla Cowpoke]

Jaylon Smith wasn't listed either.

 

[KingintheNorth]

What about Mahomes from Texas Tech?

My 2017 favorite as well.

He's a much better version of Prescott; not as tall. My fear is that Jerry rarely ever admits mistakes that soon (if ever) and will not draft another QB for a few years.

 

[Sydla]

Isn't Mahomes 6-3 and Prescott 6-2?

My problem with Mahomes is the system he plays in.

 

[ccb04]

Jaylon Smith wasn't listed either.

Amazingly no...coming off of: 111 tackles, 9 TFL's, 3.5 sacks, and being tabbed a 2nd team All-American. Not to mention having freakish athletic traits to go along with it.

 

[Leadbelly]

Any USC fans with expectations for whoever is taking over for Kessler? Max Browne?

I like Gunner Kiel a ton but there's something up with him. Won't surprise me if there are questions similar to Connor Cook in terms of intangibles. And maybe some concussion concerns, as mentioned previously.

Interested to see Kaaya with Richt hiring.

Total flyer but I have an eye on Keller Chryst, more likely an '18 with Rosen.Seems next in line for QB1 at Stanford replacing Hogan. 4* in 2014 and 6-5/235 with a big arm and some athleticism. He's either a Jr or rSoph. He's the son of Geep Chryst (long time QB coach and OC) and nephew of Paul Chryst (Wisconsin HC), who I think are pretty tight with Garrett. I believe Geep was at Princeton w. Garrett. Been in a pro style O his entire career. Could transition very quickly into a top QB prospect.
