How do you feel about @McShay13 way too early 2027 Draft QB Rankings ? 1. Dante Moore 2. LaNorris Sellers 3. Sam Leavitt T4. CJ Carr T4. Arch Manning 6. Darian Mensah 7. Trinidad Chambliss 8. Nico Iamaleava 9. Julian Sayin 10. Brendan Sorsby 11. Jayden Maiava 12. John Mateer
I have no idea who Nico Iamaleava is, but when l saw her face, now Iamaleava.
I have no idea who Nico Iamaleava is, but when l saw her face, now Iamaleava.
He played at Tennessee when Ohio State ran all over them in the playoffs after the 2024 regular season. The Volunteer fans talked a lot of shit about taking over the Shoe, their players walked out of the tunnel during warmups shirtless in the freezing night weather, then they got absolutely trucked. Iamaleava got hit so hard when he tried to leave the pocket that his helmet got cracked, then he started demanding a ton of NIL money and left for UCLA of all places.
I'm not Flugs, nor do I play him on TV, but I'm still intrigued by Lenorris Sellers of South Carolina. I love his measurables. Big arm, can run, built like a brick shithouse... but good lord, his offense was hooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibbbbbbbbbbbbbbble last season. Bad scheme, bad OLine, just bad. I'm kind of shocked he didn't leave and go to Miami or somewhere that loves them some one-year rental transfer QBs.
I suppose I'm solidly in the Moore camp, but I don't love any specific QB as of today. McShay didn't even rank the kid at OK State? Weird. Drew Mestamaker is definitely someone I'm keeping an eye on this season, but he doesn't have to come out. He's a redshirt sophomore, who didn't even start at QB his senior year at high school.

Very good point about the offense. The following cut and paste shows there was NO running game capable of providing a balanced prong of attack to keep defensive fronts out of pin their ears back mode. Sellers appears to be a great athlete with a good frame. I haven't seen enough of him to know if he has an NFL transferable processor in his dome or not. Let's hope they give him a better offense to work with this year so he can have a fair audition in 2026.

Looking Ahead to the 2027 NFL Draft
The Rams lost their opening day game to the 49'ers. And Myles Garrett's name did not appear on the Stat Sheet.

True. On top of that, Aaron Donald didn't want to play yet. Now why was that significant? It was easy for Brock Purdy to step up in the pocket; so Trent Williams could continue to escort the sack-free/tackle-free Myles Garrett behind & beyond the well protected passer all night.

It's awfully difficult to build a winning team when you have to try and do it IN SPITE OF your owner's unproductive meddling. -

It's such an obvious prediction to make, though.
Haslam looooooove him some Mannings, Arch is a big name and the Browns need to sell PSLs and you just know Jimmy wants to make a splash as he heads towards Brookpark.
It would be pretty funny if Arch just decides to play one more season of college football. -
He will trade both first picks to draft Manning

If needed to get him, I totally see it.
But we'll see if the Browns don't slide down naturally to a pick cloae to the top to be able to take him without trading up. -
Re: Arch I can tell some of my content reaches the Longhorns fan base because when I post about his shortcomings... holy hell. The flame comes out from the steers.

It's fine to report on a player's shortcomings. All players have shortcomings. But I think it's also important to tie it up in a bow. Is the player's shortcomings a deal breaker? Is he a player that should be a 1st round pick? (upper, middle, lower?) How does he compare with his direct competition? Would you want your team to draft him, should they require a player at his position?
It's like doing a yearly review of your subordinates. You start the review with positives. Then you work your way into the negatives. And finally you finish with positives...like, We just need to clean up a thing or two but you're a great asset to this department....yadda, yadda.
Because you know darned well that the player WILL be drafted, making him out to be junk is is probably not productive....unless you're reviewing Tim Tebow as a 1st round candidate. Finishing with positives will leave a better taste in a reader's mouth. -

I honestly believe he will stay another season, and he should. -

You're right; at the same time I'm not one to sugar coat if a 1st rounder is worthy of that status. If they aren't, yet being talking about in circles as such, then the critique to the NOT will be 1st, 2nd & 3rd chapters.
Arch is physically capable and he has improved his throwing motion a bit over the course of the off-season. But the problems with eye discipline and processing at the 3rd level still remain. I suppose phrasing it like that takes some of the edge off?...unless you're reviewing Tim Tebow as a 1st round candidate.
We don't use that name here.

@Dutch-Oven - I love the Shrodinger's QB Stuff quote. (Physics, Shrodinger's Cat...both dead and alive at the same time)
How much does anyone want to bet that Manning will be drafted much higher than #24? -

How much does anyone want to bet that Manning will be drafted much higher than #24?@Orion Thereβs not a chance in hell i would bet against you in that. I should go back since the Browns came back and post every QB drafted in the first 24 picks if all the drafts. We would laugh our asses off at some of the reaches on that list.
