2023 NFL Draft QB Rankings 

Drafted CJ in ny dynasty league and I am so happy I ignored this

He was not impressed with last year's QB class draft and he was spot on with only one picked in the first and none in the second.

Yeah I went back and watched the 2021 rankings and he never said "I just don't get it" when talking through Zach's final evaluation. He mentioned that the group of four QBs were very good and an important part of all of it was what organization/situation they were drafted into. He mentioned that he was an excellent thrower of the football and had great upper body but wasn't sure what happened from 2019 to 2021 and was also worried about going from a small school to the NFL where everyone's faster and windows close quicker. He mentioned it would be a really tough decision if he was a GM to pass on Zach Wilson but he liked Trey Lance better. Logically, it makes sense why Zach Wilson would go over Trey Lance. Two small school quarterbacks compared side by side one at an even smaller school than the other and had even less game time than the other. Zach Wilson played two and a half seasons at the FBS level. Trey Lance spent one season as a freshman playing at an FCS school. His arm talent was also not as good as Zach Wilson's. If you're faced with the option of picking between those two because we know that Justin Fields was not as desirable as people were hyping him up to be then you're going to bet on the player who has at least more film and a higher ceiling arm talent wise than the other. Zach Wilson also produced on the ground, not to the same extent that tray Lance did, but all things considered you would rather take someone with superior arm talent and adequate rushing over someone with adequate arm talent and superior rushing.

@@jamesmt95 Oh but he did, he also did a few Zach Wilson vids and was the first one that I saw that pointed out that Zach misses some of those easy throws to the flat.

He also thought Justin Herbert was a 3rd rounder or something Throw enough darts and you'll hit the bullseye

He had ZW as QB 3 so I'm not sure what you are talking about. He liked Zach Wilson just not as much as fields or Lawrence

IT's hogwash at best. Anthony richardson at #3 ? come on man, he's a 50/50 passer and that's where he's gonna stay. I don't know anyone that would put a QB that can't hit the broad side of a barn at the top of the draft. EXCEPT media "analysts" like this dude. NOT a good assessment and time will prove ME right not this guy.

@@unction1 and who tf are you?

@@BasedBurrr who tf are you?

Do you have haener #5?

Have

Doesn't it depend? Eli was a pretty polished QB. For him or a guy like Trevor or Dak they just needed reps because they have the requisite skills to succeed. Mahomes by his own admission didn't know how to take a snap or identify the Mike. That's an extreme example but most guys need to work on themselves and develop supplementary skills in some way. Footwork, understanding coverage, mechanics, maturity, etc. Destroying a QB's confidence depends on the person. You really don't know until it's too late. Troy Aikman was fine. Joey Harrington and David Carr were put in similarly bad situations (albeit over multiple years) and it changed how they played. Ryan Leaf didn't know how to handle adversity and spiraled. I think the general rule is you don't want to give people more than they can handle but obviously that's different for everyone so it's just about evaluating the person and situation and trying to make the best decision and have honest communication.

The funny thing about this is, i say these two have tied because of two elite 11 weeks, it needs to be said that in the competitive initial elite 11 week Stroud showed up as an underdog not originally invited and not on anybody's radar and he dominated the week and Won MVP over Bryce, putting him on the map to begin with. You go to the camp a year later as counselors, noted even that week CJ had really good moments. Bryce edged him, and so in my mind head to head their tied. so it depends how you look at that. both have wins over Georgia, dominant showings over Georgia btw and Georgia had more success the more comfortable they got against Bryce. They got 2 shots at BY and i'd be curious how it'd go if they were more dialed in for a rematch with Stroud. also interesting note if you go to the manning camp Levis and AR had predominant Buzz leaving there over both CJ and BY, and Payton manning wasn't really too impressed with Bryce that week. but again depends on how you wanna view those environments in the grand scheme of the entire evaluation. CJ broke out at the youngest age, and he's been the most prolific over 2 years but then you watch the film then everyone is split again. Everything considered it still feels tied.

The opposite outcome is based on recent throwing and not something from before this past college season. He’s talking about summer of 2022.

@@tvtda1 Bryce Beat GA and Stroud did not

@@alfonsogayman9699 no one should really be using this as a counter to his perfect passer rating vs Georgia, they operate believing their kicker will close that game out.

@@bg693 well 2019 is an officially evaluated, intensive weeklong competitive environment compared to 2022. notice whose coming up big in the biggest lights, it isn't BY. anyone arguing otherwise is being disingenuous. anyone trying to pull this in Bryce's favor really wants to stretch BY's 47 and 7, over CJ's 44 and 6, int to TD ratio their freshman year. it's pointless and if you do it with context you need to acknowledge Jamo and Metchie's existence, which then over a two year period would even the debate up. given Strouds far superior statistical 2nd season and overall officially more dominant statistical career. make it easy, its just 1A. and 1B. with these two if they aren't 2 and 3 respectively because we can go at it all day from different perspectives.

I don't think Stroud has significantly better physical tools than Young. He has a better frame and his arm is a little stronger but that's it. Running ability Young is better because he's more twitchy and nimble.

That's it exactly. Sometimes Young's ability to read the field has him taking off, but he's not a "running quarterback"; he's a quarterback who sees in an instant what most people might get after perusing the all-22 for a few minutes. He takes advantage of the smallest throwing windows for his body and his target.

Bryce Young plays the position like Joe Burrow. Escapes to throw down field. A little more athletic but also a lot smaller. Who knows if his body can hold up to the nfl but he seems like a star if he does.

Did you watch Alabama last two years? Most the time dude had zero pressure…I hope he can make reads when he is standing there by himself

@@louielogicsxxx3669 I think you mean Ohio state

Chris Ballard should be unemployed!

Didn't have to do either. He had an excellent draft

Running QB’s get injured.

Love Bud it's sad he passed away

Zach Wilson’s best ability is unavailability. BOOM! GOT ‘EM!

​@@billytheweasel ALL* qbs get hurt

Skol rip 🟣🟡

Have you seen the others lead their locker room? Haha…everyone loves their QB😅

22 summer

@@TheQBSchool Good to know! Thanks for what you do!

@@TheQBSchool non popular opinion I think duggan and Bennett are the best two in this draft I hope they get a serious chance to start. I want duggan on my cowboys

@@YellowDogAnimationsit’s not popular for a reason you’re just wrong

He could go before Hooker and Levis honestly

dominated the pre draft process as well...

Never watched

@@TheQBSchool *All good fun and prolly don’t remember me but I gave you a bunch of shit about your Kenny Pickett evaluation. Where are you with Pickett now ?? “The Natural Feel” for the game and the QB position is something you can’t teach. And I’m curious why you don’t ever mention or take this into account nearly enough with all these QBs ?? I feel this is one of those traits that sorta seperates the good or great QBs*

I really like Hall too and don't get why ppl aren't discussing him more.

@@stevensmith5784 *Not discussing b/c the BYU offensive scheme in general sorta holds or stunts QB growth. We seen it with Zack Wilson at next level. And as a BYU fan I can tell you it’s real. Even still J.Hall has some NFL type traits and ability that when compared to other QBs in the class, Hall comes out ahead. He has a chance and some teams will like Hall*

@@TheQBSchool *Kenny Pickett would be #2 on my QB Board with this 2023 class. I just don’t understand why the “QB School” doesn’t see what I see with Pickett*

Compared to the massive rifle arms I. The league yes. My arm was fine. I never went out and measured distance. I threw a ball in a college game over 65.

@@TheQBSchool thanks for the response! But damn, I was a qb in high school but I was never able to throw it further than 55 yards. Crazy to me how far some of the top guys can sling it

That part is outstanding. His run game superb and injury is a risk there too. Just so many open WRs not seen and bad passes. Can that stuff be taught? He gets drafted high, he WILL get thrown in there.

@@billytheweasel It can be, QB's do improve. Joe Burrow got outcompeted by Dwayne Haskins and had to transfer before he got better. He had to work. Richardson hasn't had the time to develop. And when he throws off balance or under pressure, its much more accurate. He just needs time for the mechanics to match his natural ability.

@@deathhimself1653 Joe Burrow was winning that competition until he got hurt.

Lamar won a heisman. Richardson won like 5 games with no stats. He looks like he’s good but is he tho?

@@cincydooley Not true Dwayne beat out Joe in the spring. Joe may have had the edge in the previous season before his injury. But they had a fair competition.

I forget how i stumbled on to his tape, but that kid is going to be a steal for somebody. I know he played at a lower level, but he was damned good. You could even see it when he was at the senior bowl.

With the length of a QB's career I don't think that an injury or his age are that much of a factor.

He took until 24 to break out and played in a super easy system lol at 22 he sucked

Stetson Bennett is better than Levis imo. Both older QB's but Bennet is the more cerebral, decisive, accurate QB of the two and is a sneaky good athlete. Levis throws every ball like it's a 100mph fast ball and has poor pocket presence. Bennett to Atlanta in the 3rd or 4th makes too much sense.

@@ren2871 Bennett has a lot of turnover worthy plays he’s just on the best team by far

@@isaiahh4108 by far? He was also a big reason why Georgia won. As good as Georgia is, I'm not sure you could say their offensive players outside the QB position were that much better than Alabama's and Ohio State's.

@@isaiahh4108 Its tough to just chalk it up to being on the best team when he was down by 2 scores in a playoff game and brought them back. Where was the rest of the "best team by far" for the first 3 quarters?

@@adamfoxstolethenorris4727 that’s a one off he came through the team carried him more often than he did by a lot

Cj number one and AR number 2 Bryce could be 3 or 4 at best

Ha

Nevermind just saw your answered this question lol

2022

Being a NFL scout is a horrible job. Long hours. Too much travel. Low pay. Fuck that.

No

@@TheQBSchool cool, thank you for the response. Love your analysis and content!

Hahaha

@@TheQBSchool Last year everyone was hyping up Willis for his athleticism and arm strength but clearly Purdy was the better actual Quarterback. I could see Tune being better than both Levis and Richardson in the NFL.

Wtf? Tebow and Fitzpatrick are nothing alike.

@@mitchellapple9184 big, physical players that are capable of starting if needed that can get the ball down field, though with inconsistent accuracy

Levis quick release isn’t comparable to Tebows windup delivery

@@timedell2012 his accuracy at times is comparable though

nice call!
