I think the majority of draft eligible QBs -- Dante Moore, Jayden Maiava, Arch Manning -- come out this year

plenty of demand in the top 10 -- and even at 10th: its $23mm guaranteed. NIL isnt touching that
It might affect Moore's decision that his offensive coordinator is gone next year.

Ty Simpson's brother Graham Simpson won the Tennessee 3A State Championship with the Westview Chargers today. He passed for over 500 yards and 7 TDs and ran for another. They defeated Gatlinburg- Pittman 62-21. He threw a 99 yard TD pass that set a state record.

you have to match your oc's and qb's

we need to fire petzing

we need to figure out our offensive identity - then find a up and comer that specializes in that identity/brand of offense

then we can talk about which qb to draft

I've only watched the 4th and change but every pass I've seen Simpson throw downfield has been way off.

He hasn't taken himself out of the draft, but he might've dropped himself to 3rd Rd territory.
He has zero reason to enter the draft this year. I have never believed he would. And this game is really not all that unrepresentative of his overall play this year.

He will make good money playing for Alabama and even in that great looking QB draft next year is likely to go higher than he would this year. He doesn't have enough snaps and has been too inconsistent in his play for him to be a 1st round pick.

Of course I am assuming he plays well next year and Alabama has an Alabama type season. Or he could be like Nussmeier and Sellers were this year

1 game isn't going to dramatically affect his draft stock.

He was probably overrated to begin with. He has looked good in games earlier this year.

What if Mendoza looks like crap against Ohio State?
Good chance that happens.

If he looks good, he'll cement the #1 pick.

With the way this year has been for QB's...it's almost guaranteed he'll look like crap.

He could look like crap against Ohio St and in the CFP and he will still go in the top 5. That's how bad of a QB year it is.

I'm just glad people are finally seeing how bad of a prospect Ty Simpson is. I'm going to be sick if we spend a first rounder on him this year.

Ty will be an elite QB prospect this time next year. Same with Moore with another year of seasoning.
Unfortunately next year is the year for QBs not this year. You never know, maybe one of these kids this year will be a stud and we luck into picking that guy.

But that doesn't seem like Cardinals luck.
