Not yet verified. No pro-day or college listing is substituted for Combine measurements.
Compare the evidence.
Shared traits must be supported by comparable records, not inferred from success in the NFL. The core tables compare all 28 players using the same disclosed NCAA-passing and quarterback-start definitions. Mixed-entry measurement sources are labeled individually; film and advanced-stat archives are not complete.
Experience
College starts, seasons, age and development.
Production
Completion rate, passing efficiency, touchdowns and interceptions, with season and competition context.
Background
Recruiting history, scheme, responsibilities and supporting cast.
Physical profile
Source-labeled Combine measurements and testing; missing values shown honestly.
The cohort table contains source-labeled descriptive comparisons. No predictive conclusions have been validated, and missing or conflicting records are not treated as negative results.
Source and interpretation policy.
Scouting summaries are paraphrases of the linked evaluator or reporter, not a consensus or verbatim report. A later republication date is not the original scouting date. This profile does not use an invented numerical scouting grade.
