Pass rushers are one of the most coveted positions, and thus one of the most scrutinized. We hear about this guy’s stiff hips or that guy’s long arms, I’m not going to talk about that. However, because pass rushers are so important, I’m going to break them into two parts. The first part (this one) […]

Here are previous Tyler Wilson articles: Smith, Barkley, Wilson, and Glennon: A Metrics Breakdown Tyler Wilson: A Statistical Scouting Report When writing the Tyler Wilson scouting report, I discussed at length the narrative surrounding Tyler Wilson’s ‘weak arm’.

See other scouting reports here: Nassib | Manuel | Dysert The saga of EJ Manuel is an interesting one to say the least. Backing up future first round pick Christian Ponder, he was thrown into the fire multiple times when Ponder was injured. Manuel led the Florida State team to multiple wins, but never fulfilled […]

To see the other scouting reports: Ryan Nassib | EJ Manuel | Zac Dysert ‘Ryan Nassib seems to have two distinct camps, he’s either worthy of a second round pick or later or he’s the best quarterback in the class.

To see the individual scouting reports Ryan Nassib | EJ Manuel | Zac Dysert After posting the first quarterback breakdown, I had people asking for a 2nd tier including some of the guys that we could see go in the 2nd through 4th rounds. Last year, a study of Cousins and Osweiler just showed sub-par prospects, so I expected […]
