Excellent QB class this year. Moriatta and Winston most people have battling it out as the top QB, but I think Hundley is much closer to them then people realize. If he improves his touch, he could be #1 overall Im a big fan of Petty
Not on here much, but for those who care I did a little update. Still have more tape to watch but this is where I am at so far.
Holliman is some I like in the 2nd. He seriously needs to work on tackling, but he can be brought along in subpackages as a rook and then take over for Wilcox at FS and having Wilcox slide to SS. Excellent ball skills. Dat tackle form doe
Completely agree on this QB class even though the insiders media know-it-alls say it's weak. I'd give a left nut for the Cards to draft Petty. That kid is going to be the real deal. Great touch and a great deep ball. Yup. Matt Leinart is a perfect example. Had he gone to the NFL after the runner-up finish to Texas he'd have been Top 3. The NFL is a QB driven league and there's no way Mariota passes up #1 or #2.
Keep your eye on the Browns. There are rumors circulating that they are going to package their 2 #1s in an effort to get Mariota.
