BuffsBeat's Josh Tolle doesn't much care for the 2025 NFL draft class's QBs, besides Colorado football star Shedeur Sanders and Georgia's Carson Beck, claiming it won't make major headlines and painting it as a "perceived low."
"While Shedeur Sanders is a strong contender for being a top pick, many scouts are waiting this situation out," Tolle prefaced before saying, "The draft positioning of both Sanders and Beck will be closely watched as the draft approaches, with Shedeur's unique circumstances adding an intriguing twist to the usual draft narratives.
"Despite the perceived low for the 2025 quarterback class, the journeys of both QBs promise to provide plenty of excitement and drama during the upcoming college football season."
There is no shortage of big names across the college football world at big schools in the 2025 QB draft class but not a ton of seemingly generational talents. Caleb Williams has a Pat Mahomes factor that may or may not play out with the Chicago Bears, but it was evident at USC. There are a lot of versatile players in next April's draft, but none look like they can step in and take their team to a Super Bowl within three years like Mahomes did.
Not yet, anyway.
Shedeur's draft stock will be hard to evaluate. Many NFL front offices could look to avoid the "Prime Effect" he'd take with him to any pro football city he'd be drafted to and he's already incorrectly assessed himself as a potential all-time great passer (that is plausible) and runner (that's not) by comparing his game to a mixture of Tom Brady and Mike Vick.
"I'm a mixture," Sanders said (h/t Falcon Report). "I'm able to stay in the pocket and want to deliver the ball each and every play like Brady but be able to extend plays and if it's not there, take it like Vick."
Teams shouldn't expect a dual-threat out of Sanders, whose injury situation in 2023 means any prospective employer for Coach Prime's youngest son should probably prioritize protection so he can be a primarily pocket passer.
