Riley Ferguson (Memphis) Potential Riser: Chase Litton (Marshall) No Thanks!: Tanner Lee (Nebraska)
FearLess Price Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 Interesting read. I could def see a team taking a chance on Lamar Jackson in the 1st round. The upside is ridiculous, and you could always make him a WR or Slash type player if he flames out at QB.
26CornerBlitz Posted February 15, 2018 Author Posted February 15, 2018 Here's another draft ranking for positions on offense. I’m still working my way through the film from the 2017 season. Every player listed here has been scouted in at least two games. If you see a glaring omission it’s because I just haven’t gotten to enough exposure to have a proper evaluation. Quarterbacks 1. Josh Rosen, UCLA 2a. Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma 2b. Sam Darnold, USC 4. Lamar Jackson, Louisville 5. Kyle Lauletta, Richmond 6. Mike White, Western Kentucky 7. Mason Rudolph, Oklahoma State 8. Nic Shimonek, Texas Tech 9. Luke Falk, Washington State 10. Josh Allen, Wyoming 11. J.T. Barrett, Ohio State 12. Kurt Benkert, Virginia 13. Riley Ferguson, Memphis 14. Brogan Roback, Eastern Michigan 15. Tanner Lee, Nebraska Notes It’s still very undecided in the top-3 and more team- and scheme-specific than most years. Rosen is the most ready to play in a traditional NFL offense right away. Darnold has a higher ceiling but his mistakes and funky mechanics are an issue. There is a steep drop after Jackson, who should definitely be a first-round pick. I wouldn’t draft anyone else above the third round, not based on what I’ve seen thus far. Shimonek stood out during Shrine Game practices and has a better arm than expected. Falk could be a gem if he adapts from the spread-spray offense. Allen’s overall numbers and ball placement are pathetic but his shining moments, notably the 1st half of Wyoming’s bowl game, are enough to gamble a 7th-round pick.
