CEDAR FALLS, Iowa — The leading candidate to be the next Carson Wentz isn’t quite comfortable in his assumed role.

It’s Saturday night, and Montana quarterback Brady Gustafson just led his team to a 20-14 road upset of Northern Iowa in front of a crowd packed shoulder-to-shoulder at the UNI-Dome. Gustafson didn’t play great—14 for 30, 118 yards, scoreless in the second half—but he’s doing all the right things otherwise. He pats an opponents shoulder on the way off the field; he credits the defense in his post-game press conference. Now, he’s leaning his 6'7" frame against a cement hallway wall during an interview.

Interesting QB prospect, but I dont think he will break the first. I can see him being a day 2 guy. Closer to this years Lynch then Wentz. And Lynch may not go in the first inna stronger class.

If we didn't have Prescott Id be very interested in the 2nd round or so

The lack of accuracy worries me.

Yes, the article says that his receivers drop a bunch of balls. But, is it because of them, or because he doesn't throw a catchable ball?

Plus you want your QB, especially at that level to be around 65 percent. Thats a whole lot of drops

I haven't watched this guy but guys like Carson Wentz are so rare that I can't imagine history repeating itself a year later.

Montana quarterback Brady Gustafson was 47 of 59 for 418 yards and two touchdowns, although he threw an interception and lost a fumble
