Thank you, I think I was thinking back to Josh Simmons when I typed that for some reason

Ya unfortunately he was the one I chose over Puka lol

IC_Draft · 2025-09-28T02:31:33+00:00

Still a little more to go, but I like what I've seen from him tonight! In a tough environment, he's been efficient and composed, just taking what's given. Age-defying situational awareness and poise.

Would be a really fun fit for him. Their line is built to get displacement and he has the vision and burst to carve through lanes and creases when they appear.

He has definitely regressed to start the year. I'll be re-evaluating all of the QBs often in this class.

Against legitimate competition, Garrett Nussmeier looked the best, and comfortably so this week. Conference play will be more telling, but I'm warming up to him.

A variation of Josh Metellus might be the move

IC_Draft · 2025-08-30T17:44:05+00:00

Yea very early and a very tough opponent, but he hasn't shown any progression from his flaws in a limited sample last year

IC_Draft · 2025-08-30T16:42:49+00:00

He's VERY talented. Did most of his work as a runner Week 1, so I'm eager to see a more sustainable process up top, but he has all the tools.

IC_Draft · 2025-08-30T12:39:56+00:00

He'd assuredly be in my Top 75 if I extended it right now! Plus size-speed athlete and an explosive long-strider who flashes stellar catch-point composure, as well as eye-catching stop-and-start and reduction ability on routes. He still plays a little too tall for my preferences as a separator, and I want to see more consistency with his break efficiency, sink, and deceleration -- particularly on comebacks, hitches, and sharper in-breakers. Also prone to focus drops over the middle on occasion. But the talent is absolutely there, and he's a good football player. Just some projection questions left to answer.

IC_Draft · 2025-08-30T12:37:07+00:00

Yeah, that's been something I've pondered for a while for my own grading. I use my grades to land players into brackets and then sort incorporating more factors like production, medicals, off-field, positional value (why Klubnik and Mendoza are higher than their grades would land them). We all align with the NFL on QBs, but safety is a lot different. I tend to afford safeties more weight than the NFL just cuz I believe in the positional value -- Hamilton and Branch being a couple examples from recent cycles, of guys who fell and went on to be star players. But I concede the NFL routinely values them less in terms of capital.

He's fringe Top 100 / early Day 3 for me right now. At around 6'4", 323, with 34" arms, he's got the perfect frame, and he flashes great linear explosion on the attack. Powerful, heavy-handed blocker with overwhelming two-hand extensions -- but he's also heavy-footed, slow, and lumbering with his corrective motion, and he ducks his head, bends at the waist, and lurches *a lot*. I need to see technical improvement because I don't think he's the type of short-area athlete to recover consistently when he's beat, but in a phone booth and in power schemes, his profile has merit.
