Analyzing a Top-10 mock draft from PFN

Most, not all but most of the folks that dont want Dart are basing their opinion off of what others are saying (echo chamber) or off of online pre-draft rankings and hype pieces. Same as last year speaking of Nix.

Projecting any player from college to the NFL is hard. Projecting a QB is hard x10.some non-hype film study clips Ive seen and tweets by reasonable scouting type guys (like Rev Deuce for one) seem to see a LOT of quality NFL traits in Dart. Full field reads, not locking eyes on receivers, pocket awareness, scramble drill awareness, mobility (ran very well vs SEC defenses), and throwing accuracy/ ball placememt.

His knocks sound to me like things coaching and developmemt could be able to fix. (footwork, quick release/throwing motion) He has good size but hes not Josh Allen. Can scramble and throw but hes not Mahommes. He can run, but he's not Jackson. Has more of a Burrow or Nix style.

No such thing as a cant-miss QB prospect, but he has a real chance to become a quality NFL starting QB. Somebody will take him in the first round and I wouldnt be surprised if he went half a roumd earlier than most people are projecting him. Id love to trade back and get him, but i almost dont believe he'd be available in the mid to late first round. If Moore wants him, we'd probably have to take him at #9.

Id be fine with that. Im not a scout by any meams, but I trust Kellen Moore to know what he's looking for at QB. If he wants him, then I want him too. If he passes on him, then I pass as well.

My biggest concern with him is that Ole Miss did not run a pro style offense. This means he's going to have a big learning curve over someone like Burrow, Nix or even Cam Ward who came from pro-style offenses. It doesn't indicate whether or not he's more or less likely to succeed in the NFL. But it does mean he shouldn't see the field in year 1 what so ever. Even if Carr got injured.
