Matt Flynn, Lee HS

Greg Ward Jr, John Tyler HS

Brad Kaaya ahead of Dobbs is absurd

Ward isn't a QB. guy is electric running the ball, but not great throwing in the two games I watched. Vandy and FSU. some of his pitches were straight up Crompton-esque. 2 yards short or 2 rows deep in the stands. he would find a rhythm and be good then get in slumps where he couldn't complete a toss.

not hating, just number 5 seems really high imo.

no love for Riley Ferguson at Memphis?

Not really, Kaaya is pretty good from the few Miami games I watched. He is a far better passer than dobbs though less electric as dobbs imo. People have loved kaaya for his passing and decision making since he played as a freshman (2 years ago I think).

There is always the chance that some competition for the starting spot could come up and he bolts. So...

Holy cow the SEC is hurting for quarterbacks. Josh is 2nd in the SEC at number 12. Number 3 is Jacob Eason at UGA, all the way down to 46. Also a guy that has not taken a snap in college football... The only other player better than Dobbs at the QB position is Chad Kelly at Ole Miss. We have a big time edge over all our opponents next year.

Yep. Mayfield is over rated on this list too. Russell and Mahomes should be three and four (y'all chose the order). I wonder where these folks would place Jarrett Stidham if he beats out Russell this spring?

 

[LouderVol]

probably just flip them. I am guessing this list didn't cover any back ups, but generally you would think the back up would be lower rated, but Stidham might be an exception.
