Quote: 

<div>Peter King talked to a NFL talent evaluator of an unnamed NFL team to list in order the QB prospects from 2011 based on the teams grade that particular year.  As you can see, Bortles came in 8th, behind Winston, Mariota, and Blaine Gabbert.  
 
Here is the full list:
 
1. Andrew Luck
2. Jameis Winston
3. Robert Griffin III
4. Cam Newton
5. Blaine Gabbert
6. Marcus Mariota
7. Ryan Tannehill
8. Blake Bortles
9. Jake Locker
10. Teddy Bridgewater
11. EJ Manuel
12. Johnny Manziel
13. Brandon Weeden
14. Christian Ponder

If I had to rank those 14 myself I would have gone:

 

1.) Andrew Luck

2.) Jameis Winston

3.) Cam Newton

4.) Robert Griffin III

5.) Blake Bortles

6.) Teddy Bridgewater

7.) Marcus Mariota

8.) Blaine Gabbert

9.) Ryan Tannehill

10.) Jake Locker

11.) Christian Ponder

12.) EJ Manuel

13.) Johnny Manziel

14.) Brandon Weeden

 

No Jags bias with the Bortles bump - I was very high on him.
