Do you guys feel Julian Sayin is that elite? I honestly didn’t watch him much beyond Texas game. Always felt he benefitted from the team around him and wasn’t asked to do much but admittedly small sample size.

Gerry says, incredibly accurate passer. Can be rattled with strong pass rush. (See playoff game with Indiana)

Exactly right. He feels like an elevated version of Quinn. Not an insult—both very good college QBs—but I would take arch over either one in a heartbeat because of their limitations.

Insanely accurate when he has time. Kinda reminds me of Quinn a little bit because things fall apart when he’s under pressure. Hes not 4.

Elite, elite accuracy. Colt McCoy level accuracy. With more arm talent down the field

Very good footwork, but not a high-end athlete when pressured. 

Pocket needs to be good for him.

Look at the PFF is still sad that we did not try harder to get Leonard Moore. One of the biggest misses I have seen.

6 ducks

5 longhorns

4 domers

2 buckeyes

I like PFF and this was a fun list, but it certainly has limited utility in certain areas. As an example, I don't trust their CFB CB ratings at all. They're always sketchy and don't usually translate to how CBs are valued in the draft, or even how they're schemed for during the season at the CFB level.
