If not for injury, there would be much more discussion about Jordan Travis in the 2024 NFL Draft quarterback conversation.
After the projected top-four quarterbacks, @Jordantrav13’s improvisation and athleticism stands out in that next group of QBs.
Quarterback improvisation and confidence under pressure are among, if not the, most important traits in today’s NFL, and Travis has shown he can adjust, create opportunities and finish either downfield as a passer or use his legs to generate big plays.
He’s shown leadership and poise throughout his @FSUFootball career, and he’s shown very high football IQ throughout the draft/interview process. And he’s continued to improve every way he can with @WillHewlett and @GormelyTM this draft cycle.
He’s shown at FSU that he has the talent, experience and football IQ to be a starter, but he’s going to make an NFL QB room better is many ways as a rookie.
Based on teams most interested, some really cool potential for Travis’s long term future in the NFL

Very nice, imo. I've looked at too many big boards. Only 2 have graded this OL class like I see it. I'd shuffle some names around and get Guyton higher, but most seem to be missing just how good this OL class is. There's a trend to grade Fuaga after Alt. I think that's wrong. There's a trend to grade Alt a tier above his peers. I think that's wrong. There's a strong trend to move many players from other positions well above some of these O lineman. I think that's wrong.
I don't know if I'm right about this, but I had football on most Saturdays last season, and game after game the announcers were singing the praises of some offensive lineman. I'm an OL junkie so I paid attention, and the dude being praised would dominate. Every time.
The big board linked in Faust's quote above is by Nate Tice.
Seems qualified.
Tice's OL grading.
Player, OL rank, big board rank.
Fashanu, 1, 6
Alt 2, 7
Latham 3, 9
Fautanu 4, 10
Mims 5, 11
Barton 6, 12
Half of the first dozen highest graded players are OLs and no Fuaga. It's not crazy. These are potentially elite lineman. Mike Martz agreed on the top 3, broke down some film and prefers Latham and Fashanu to Alt.
5 more appear with 1st round grades.
Fuaga 7, 18
Suamataia 8, 22
Morgan 9, 25
Powers-Johnson 10, 27
Haynes 11, 30
I can think of almost a dozen more that should be very good starters. For all the hype this deep wr class gets, it doesn't impress me nearly as much as the depth of this ol class.

Laiatu Latu meeting with Vikings, Cardinals this week
PFF College
UCLA EDGE Laiatu Latu over the past two seasons:
95.4 PFF Grade (1st)

Only two guys remotely close to UCLA's Laiatu Latu in "Win Rate % Vs. True Pass Sets" in recent drafts are Bosa brothers.
Teams that overthink it with @laiatu_latu 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙧𝙚𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙩 𝙞𝙩.
Tape & analytics align.
Most NFL-ready rush game I've seen in years.
He'll be an immediate factor on sub-downs for any team that takes him.

Here is the issue with QBs. Many should sit for some time - each one is different. Some need maybe half a year to learn the playbook, get up to speed with the NFL and feel comfortable leading the offense. Some need multiple years (Jordan Love) but then are ready to take on the NFL and compete at a high level.
So many coaches don't have multiple years. They need to win now and feel the pressure to start their high drafted QBs to "see what they got". The NFL has been chewing up and spitting out young QBs like no tomorrow and as a result their coaches also get chewed and spit out.
It is unfortunate for some of these highly ranked prospects that they won't get the proper time they need before they get their first start(s) in the NFL.
Even guys like Hurts and Allen took some time to figure things out and they are considered some of the best right now. These QBs need the right coaches, right system and proper supports to succeed. Many won't get that and crash and burn.

Only 15 days out from draft, the more teams we talk to, the more it sounds probable that @seniorbowl alums (in some order) could go 2-3-4 𝙖𝙩 𝙏𝙀 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 after Brock Bowers.
Penn State's Theo Johnson, K-State's Ben Sinnott, & TCU's Jared Wiley all embraced full pre-draft process, starting in Mobile, and will be rewarded for it in two weeks.
Look for all three tight ends to go on Day 2.

Not sure about these posts on twitter. I enjoy a lot of the content and info but these in particular frustrate me. He just tosses out the top 5 guys and said they are all in the range to go 2-5. thanks tips... oh boy. Throw enough stuff at the wall something will stick. He got flack for not including Stover and Sanders in the first post so has to go back and add them.Jim Nagy

A general tip to everyone - careful what you "intake". It is all good information but just use it as that - info.
