1. Bortles - Unlike Carr he shows up for big games. He's calm under pressure with game on the line. His stat line translates to the NFL. By that I mean...QB's that go 50-65 for 545 and 7 TD's in college rarely become effective QB's in the Pros (Kafka, Brennan, list could go on). He's a 18-25 guy for 260. He can check down. He can buy time. Quick release. Reminds me of Big Ben. Both played at smaller schools, but to me there is less risk with a guy that has took his team against a couple solid D's and performed. Can't wait to watch his bowl game. If he shows up again, and I'm confident he will, he will hold this spot. If he struggles against an below average Baylor D he will fall back to 4 or so.

 

2. Bridgewater - He's an extremely effiecient QB, but I don't like his deep accuracy. And he doesn't take enough 'shots' at the big play. Overall he has the tools to be an NFL QB. If the Texans had Kubiak's offense I think he could've been very scary in that. It's a perfect fit but with Kubiak gone how will their O evolve?

 

3. Clowney - Raiders. Logical fit. Fast extemely athletic guy to them again...

 

4. Manziel - Too many teams need a QB that won't pass on a franchise guy. Won't go outside top 10.

 

5. Mack - If he played in a BCS conference he may be unanimous #1

 

6. Evans - Closest thing to Calvin as I've seen. Just don't see anyone that good...

 

7. Elu - Tackling skills off the chart. Ball skills impressive. Richard Sherman comparison.

 

8. Matthews. - 8 is probably too low, he should rise potentially even to Rams.

 

9. Cyrus K OT Alabama... Man among boys.

 

10. Carr - Big fall to me for the lack of a quality opponent all year. Finally got his shot yesterday. I feel I'm being very generous to leave him at 10. Footwork needs to improve, and when he doesn't have all day he faults. Plays with one of the best WR's for 2015 in Adams. Carr is a mid 20's type QB that is going to have to develop. USC is just an above average D and he had horrible footwork under pressure. Always shying away from contact or not stepping into his throw to avoid a big time hit. Not saying he can't be great but he's got alot improvements to make. Classic Cleveland Browns pick IMO. Just like Brady Quinn from ND.

 

 

Left off Anthony Barr... IMO he's another Aaron Curry from Wake Forest. Some love him, for the record I don't.
