![]() ![]() Gets through progression better than most college QBs and throws with more anticipation than majority of his colleagues as well. ![]() Throws with fantastic velocity and can place throws exactly where they need to be. His accuracy and navigation of the pocket with subtle movement… advanced. ![]() He plays with ton of confidence and has the arm to deliver the promises his ego makes… that is simply the best trait combo a QB can have. But dig a little deeper and you see some of that mysterious thing we call “it”. He’s opbivously big-like in the neighborhood of Big Ben big-and has outrageous arm velocity that is immediately obvious. Like the very best prospects I have seen over the years of doing this, his play jumps off the tape immediately. But all that wading through the usual suspects makes the experience of seeing someone special so staggering. Scouting quarterbacks for their NFL potential can turn into an endless loop of spread offenses, checkdowns, and skittish runs out of pressure in the pocket. Without further ado, the best of the B2Best: B2B Directional Player of the Year: QB Kory Curtis, Gannon (Bryant/Ohio State) The Pride of Island Coast Special shout out to: Ric Serritella, Bill Carroll, everyone at in the Annual Draft-A-Team, Emory Hunt of Football Gameplan, Damond Talbot at and especially Korey Karbowsky for doing the digging and bringing names forward. Read this, and I promise you’ll know more about the rosters of preseason games and the XFL/USFL than you ever thought possible! (Hello, Lucky Jackson!) Amaze your friends! I’m sure there will be a sleeper or two who make it in the NFL who isn’t on this list… but it’s not because I didn’t try to find him.įor some background on how I got started with this and a list of previous year’s teams, click the following links: This list isn’t intended to be comprehensive. Give me a guy with heart, football smarts, and athletic ability and shame on you if you can’t figure out how to make him a player. In general, I tend to favor what a player shows they can do that has outlier potential– what is the best this player can be– paired with the football personality and working style to bring that to fruition. Hassel, Jessie Bates, Nik Needham, James Robinson, Donald Parham, Garrett Wallow, Elijah Mitchell, Kenneth Gainwell, Larry Borom, Cole Strange, … and more each year. Patrick Mahomes, Jared Veldheer, Richard Sherman, Carlos Dunlap, Emmanuel Sanders, Jimmy Graham, Josh Norman, Alterraun Verner, Junior Galette, Jordan Cameron, Tarik Cohen, Kevin Byard, Kenny Golladay, Julius Thomas, Buster Skrine, Doug Martin, Bruce Irvin, Robert Turbin, J.R.Sweezy, Jamie Collins, Brandon Williams, Paul Worrilow, Jarvis Landry, Javon Hargrave, George Fant, Malcolm Mitchell, Karl Joseph, Adrian Colbert, Cooper Rush, Chase Allen, Sharif Finch, Jatavis Brown, J.T. ![]() Here are a few past B2Bers, more or less the B2B Hall Of Fame: Like when I watched 15 minutes of Texas Tech film and shouted “Patrick Mahomes is what a future Hall Of Fame QB looks like.” My work here is done… almost. However, I did hit on a few very unexpected home runs, too. Over the years, I’ve missed on a few I liked (Hello, Buckshot Calvert!) and missed on some I should have included but didn’t (hello, Darius Leonard!) Over the years, I’ve tweeted about, written about, mock-drafted, interviewed, argued about, and generally died on the hilltop for “my” guys. Time again for my annual list of undervalued draft sleepers and smaller school prospects who deserve more attention in the NFL draft.įor 19 years now, I have made the analysis of lesser-known, small school, and undervalued NFL draft prospects my obsession. ![]()
