While I don't think Penix is a sleeper. This is some good points from Baldy on him.

No I've seen a few mocks with him going in the 1st lately.  MJD's had him going 6th overall.  He's not a sleeper.  When Simms interviewed Bo Nix at the combine and said to him he had Bo just behind Caleb and Jayden or something to that effect.  I was reviewing QBs at that time and I liked Penix better than Nix.  Nix's footwork is awful.  He's just running around a lot of times playing backyard ball and also throws a lot of screens, but even when he wasn't running around he would still not step into throws a lot of times.  

Penix throws downfield a lot and does so accurately.  His receiving corp was top notch, but not to the extent to overshadow his contributions in my mind.

Yeah. I think he'll be a Raider at the minimum on Thursday. I like his arm talent. Elevated a lot of the receivers around him this past season especially.

I also don't get the Bo Nix hype. He's an old senior. Did a lot of short stuff at Oregon. A lot of option stuff. I just don't think he'll transition very well at the next level.

Spencer Rattler is being slept on though from this class.

Agreed on Rattler.  He actually had a top 30 visit here which is a little odd. I'm thinking they asked him a few questions about Leggete and the main reason they brought him here.  Did you see the video yesterday on Arnold when he was on NFL network and talking to Bucky Brooks?
