Interesting kid - don't know if he'll stay in school...
Clayton Thorson completed his third regular season as the starting quarterback for Northwestern. The 6-foot-4, 225-pounder from Wheaton, Illinois, threw for 2,809 yards, 15 touchdowns and 12 interceptions as a junior. Thorson's season was a step back individually compared to his sophomore season. In 2016, Thorson threw for over 3,000 yards and 22 touchdowns as the Wildcats went 7-6.
Thorson enters the game with 7,513 career passing yards. That's second all-time in career passing yards for Northwestern.
He's flying way under the radar right now - but if I was drafting, and he was there 4th round/5th round? I'd pick a second qb in Thorson. or maybe he goes higher after the combine - maybe though, he'll stay in school one more year. He doesn't have a bigtime class of offensive players around him...
I say under the radar...but check this out:
This is Mel Kiper (for whatever that's worth?) list last year of qb's to watch:
Quarterbacks
1. *Mitch Trubisky, North Carolina
2. *Patrick Mahomes, Texas Tech
3. *Deshaun Watson, Clemson
4. **DeShone Kizer, Notre Dame
5. *Brad Kaaya, Miami (Fla.)
6. *Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma
7. *Luke Falk, Washington State
8. **Wilton Speight, Michigan
9. **Clayton Thorson, Northwestern
10. *Mason Rudolph, Oklahoma State -

As each day gets closer for me, it's all about the Josh Rosen show. He's without a doubt the most polished prospect this year. He played extremely well despite having to literally carry the team throwing the football week after week. He compares extremely favorably to Jared Goff, and is an extremely "safe" pick. It's also apparent that this whole bad teammate thing is overblown, which is almost always the top "con" for him Darnold may have more upside, but we don't need that crap again. Rosen has just about everything you look for in an elite draft prospect, so it's time to make the obvious pick.
Not to mention, the dude is also used to starting early and often.

I don’t think “literally” means what you think it means.

I do, you're just foolish. Look at the stats, look at the tape, and come back with a straight face and tell me he didn't literally carry the team to the record they have. I'll eagerly await-feel free to read the dozens and dozens of articles agreeing with me along the way.

I love Rosen and have seen him make many great, nfl quality throws, but I have never seen him literally carry another person, let alone an entire team. An entire team weighs tens of thousands of pounds, how could anyone expect a skinny California boy to literally carry that much weight?

Ahhh, fliteratively...now it makes sense.

What skinny pouty qb kid from California would be happy to play in a blue collar, high wind, bad winter weather
city on the Great Lake like Cleveland? Sure, Brian Sipe sure did. But we knew Brian Sipe, and rosen,....

Josh Allen and Drew Lock if he declares for draft in later round.

I am seeing what seems like Rosen being a big Chicken arse. He didn't play yesterday due to a concussion? Why do I think that is subterfuge...in that he just didn't want to jeopardize his draft status.
He doesn't want to play for the Browns? Why? Because it is too cold in Cleveland? That would be a Vaginal attitude? Because the Browns lose all the time? Well...if he is as good as he thinks he is....they would not lose all the time because he would have the kohones to be confident that HE is a winner...and could bring winning here.
I have not done that much research into him....but these things do seem rather Kuntish, do they not?

Concussion protocol. He didn't skip it just to skip it. I wanted to see him play also.
