Just HOW BAD Was the 2022 NFL Rookie QB Class? (Where Are They Now?)

[@ScottFisherCFB]

Why was this class so bad? What class/position should I do next?

[@marrmarbinks]

i dont think the class was actually that bad the teams that drafted them all had a horrible track record of developing qbs. they didnt even try to work with matt corral or sam howell really they just threw them out there and watched them crash and burn

[@deakon071]

I like these videos. I think this is going to become more common as the college game gets more like basketball on grass and players never staying in one place very long to refine skills and just rely on talent. This year's class is another glaring example: Williams skillset DOES NOT immediately translate to the pro game and his maturity is questionable at best, Daniels was atrocious at ASU and essentially had one amazing season that started out rocky but benefited from 2 NFL caliber wide outs and his ability to make things happen with his feet (he won't be doing that at the next level). Maye is underwhelming at best but seems like a serviceable spot starter but likely backup. Nix is basically a gimmick and Penix is older and a lefty (minimal NFL success for QBS). The difference between the college and pro game has just become vast at the quarterback position

2021 wasn’t that bad. Justin Fields is also good and will 100% be a starter again. And Mac Jones will probably end up being a decent backup. Only question mark is Trey Lance who we really haven’t seen much of. Zach looks like the only one that might not have a future in the NFL. 2021 didn’t live up to the hype but they got 2 starters and 2 backup quality guys imo. 2022 was just completely trash.

Going into the draft, everyone knew that it was a subpar class, and surprisingly, teams drafted like it was. In a normal year, someone would have made Malik Willis the Trey Lance of the draft and overdraft him, but he dropped to the 3rd round. Still pretty shocked Sam Howell dropped to the 5th round. I thought he should have gone in the 3rd and was really hoping my team picked him in the 4th. There is also a lot of "situation matters" in this as well. Pickett had the misfortune of being in a Matt Canada offense, so we probably never saw the best out of Pickett. Corral got hurt in his first preseason, then everything changed in the org and there was no place for him. Howell got his opportunity, but it was hardly ideal. Meanwhile, Purdy went to the perfect situation for him.

[@moblinmajorgeneral]

Nobody thought Lance would immediately drop from injury, but as soon as he did, some people felt Purdy would have his shot because Jimmy G had gotten season ending injuries before. And Purdy delivered when he did start.

As a lifetime Broncos fan from the very beginning----------1961-------I was really hoping we'd get Sam Howell. I watched how well he played against us & I thought there just might be real potential there. HOWEVER, on seeing how the rest of the season went for him, I've come to heave an enormous sigh of relief that The Payton / Paton passed on him. As of now, that 3rd Rd pick is our only Day 2 pick, & we need it . So-----------at this point--------it's Ryan Tannehill, or The Draft. I like Tannehill, but I'm guessing his agent wants way---------WAY --------too much for even a 1 yr deal. So, as of now, it's Stidham & The Nooch ; that's it. Personally, I don't want our team moving up too far if at all. McCarthy is now, out of reach . Drake Maye might fall, but of he does, The Vikings or The Raiders might move on him. if so, so be it. I like him, but I see a lot of work needed to clean him up. Michael Penix jr for me, just has Raiders Black & White all over him. And, he could be, scary good. For us however, Bo Nix should be who we target. I don't see another Elway in him, but I do see another possible Jake Plummer, a Broncos QB, I absolutely loved, & just hated to see end his career with that hip injury. Jake didn't have an Elway or Jay Cutler arm, but he could move, played smart, & his teammates loved him. He brought the team sooo close to The AFC Championship, & who knows what could have happened had he stayed healthy ? I see a lot of those traits in Bo Nix. So---------whatever we need to do to get Bo, I think we need to do it. We may regret passing on Penix if we do. Maybe, we take him ? Possibly, but I see an inevitability of The Raiders, with him, & Nix, with us. We'll see. I just don't want us to make a fatal error by once again giving up draft capital----------which to date, has cost us dearly !! ---------to get McCarthy. We have only1, maybe 2 players, any team would want : PS2, & Quinn Meiners. And I just can't see Payton / Paton, being that reckless. And for me, I see McCarthy & Maye as the 2 with the highest BUST potential ; one, McCarthy, because he is way over-hyped, & the other, Maye, because I see Drew Lock the 2nd . Remember, Lock too, had size, arm, mobility, & the numbers. What he DID NOT HAVE , & still does not, is footwork, & processing . In his time in Denver, Lock was THE most frustrating QB I have ever seen in Broncos Orange & Blue ! And maybe I'm wrong, but I see Lock # 2, in Drake Maye. Now, maybe, I'm FOS . But, what if I am not ?-------MJL, 77 y/o

[@bloun003]

Not sure how you can say that about Sam Howell. I believe he can still play and does have that IT factor. His last season at UNC who did he have to throw to? I'll answer: NO ONE. In fact, I remember him running a lot. Check the season before when he had weapons to throw to. As far as his time with the Commanders, Riverboat Ron was so out of it, he didn't know whether he was coming or going and Eric Beinemy was a joke at OC and did a disservice to Sam. If Sam gets with the right OC and QB Coach who can fully utilize his talents he will definitely shine. Don't give up on him yet.

2022's Quarterback draft really made a statement that Quarterbacks need the right people around them to succeed, not the other way around and we saw it continue into 2023. Purdy succeeded where everyone else in this draft failed because he got slotted into a Kyle Shanahan offense that frankly didn't care who was at QB. I could go in depth into that by making a comment of Darnold's lone start but this matters less. The only other QB from this draft class that played in a playoff game is the one that got to play for the scary Dolphins offense, who we got to see in full dominance at the start of this past season, especially in that Broncos game. Skylar did not play well in his two games and showed us exactly why he deserved the late round pick. But they people that did start games? Howell was behind an offensive line that was so bad that the moment they tried to bench Howell, the backup QB got injured making it impossible to start Brissett over Howell, Ridder played with a coach who was allergic to actually making a game plan around first round picks (and he also didn't play well and may have shown that he was over drafted as a day 2 QB), and as for Pickett, he played with WRs who went to the Antonio Brown school of maturity. We also have Zappe but I really can't explain everything that went down there. When I say this continued into 2023, we look at the difference between Bryce Young and Stroud, where one QB went to a trainwreck of an organization that traded their QB's only receiver to get him and the other went to a team with a new coach who got him a nice receiving core to mesh well. And this team had been building up thanks to a bad trade from the Browns. The system means more than the QB.

[@AdderTude]

Matt Corral has logged his first win with the Stallions in the UFL, now that the season is underway.

[@vincepurdie]

Howell is not competing with Geno Smith, he's the backup. Show some respect.

[@kevinak-d1x]

I called it 2 years ago when I said no QB should go in the first 2 days.. I was right

[@jandrewhearne]

Corral went to about the worst possible situation, and Pickett showed the hazard of that sixth COVID year. He probably would’ve been a sixth or seventh rounder in another year. He did make himself some money. He was just maxed out.

[@mikeybarboza3086]

What about the 2021 class 4 of the 5 QBs drafted in the first round have already been traded from the teams that drafted them. Never mind the garbage QBs that were draft post round 1? Even the 1 QB who’s been somewhat successful has vastly underperformed and underachieved as the #1 pick and supposedly the best QB prospect since Peyton Manning and possibly ever to come into the NFL.

[@denisfolcik1373]

I'm guessing the Stans defending any of these QBs (outside Purdy) are probably hardcore fans of whatever college they went to. Seen it first hand in Pittsburgh with Kenny Stans. Dude played 17 years at Pitt, had one great year, got over drafted, played horribly, and some acted like people were hating on the next Tom Brady. People called into radio shows saying the Eagles "fleeced" the Steelers, and Pickett will replace Hurts before the season even starts.

[@ZachKimzey]

To be fair as a kstate fan, we all knew that Skyler wasn’t NFL starting material. We all felt best that he would be best as a back up for somebody.

[@LordBeezleDwarf]

Its almost like its was covid and no one was allowed to actually scout in person or interview in person forced only to rely on film with also a whole bunch of people sitting out for the college season because of the uncertainty

[@katiecaddle209]

Stop using civic as an excuse for why the age were bad lol

[@Audisknfj]

Purdy had legitimate first round hype after 2019 season. He didn’t do as well in 2020/21 seasons and that’s why he fell all the way to the last pick

[@SosAisMLife]

Not disappointing at all Go Brock.

[@Dre.2397]

I feel like 2021. Most definitely is the worst out of the two in my opinion because how overhyped that class was compared to 2022. 🤷🏾‍♂️💯

[@highwayjunkieb]

It looks weird when qb’s you gloves

[@LEMATTOFFICIAL]

The qb bubble is going tonburst reaaaaal soon with all the over hype and the first team to not over invest but still be crazy successful will set the tone. Was hoping 49ers could pull it off. Still could be them

[@LembeckIsStaying]

Eh, I'm not convinced. Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a hater blah blah blah. But the Niners are loaded, once they pay him and can't afford all their stars then we can see who he really is. If he flames out or goes "Kirk Cousins", then it's right back to overhyped first round picks.

[@PDaddy44]

One correction. Pickett is from Ocean Twp, New Jersey. Not a Pittsburgh native.

[@justinah7400]

Brock Purdy made all NFL media scouts look like total morons, yet they are still making the same mistakes for the 2024 draft. Phystical talent alone doesn't make a very good NFL QB

[@alexjones6190]

Size definitely matters over the long run for pocket passers. Even 6-3 215 lbs is not big enough. You need to be like 6-5 250

[@SuperSupersoda]

@@alexjones6190The last two QBs to represent the NFC in the Superbowl, both of whom came with a play of winning the game, were the 6'1 Jalen Hurts and the 6'1 Brock Purdy. You're absolutely right, lack of height is a problem for both of them; watch how the Ravens exploited that against Purdy in the Christmas Night game. However, plenty of QBs 6'3 and up fail. It's definitely easier if you're 6'5, but you don't absolutely have to be. Patrick Mahomes, the current best QB in the business, by far, is 6'2, for the record. He's also too short by your criteria.

[@alexjones6190]

@@SuperSupersoda my criteria is more size than height, mahomes is 250 pounds and can take the blows... it's not an absolute rule either but you need to be drew brees and get the ball out very fast

[@alexjones6190]

@@SuperSupersoda the best example i could give why it matters would be Ben Roethlisberger. He wasn't even that good, but he just never got hurt and took every snap.

[@PatrickMartin-k6v]

Do one on how bad the 2023 NFL Veteran QB class was.

[@Philly.267]

While we're early the only QBs i like in the 2024 draft are Caleb Williams and Michael Penix Jr

[@NeonSuperNovas]

I have to see Purdy without the best team, coaches, and organization in all of football before I can actually say if he’s good or not.

[@frefai]

That makes 0 sense

[@SuperSupersoda]

You have seen Jimmy G and Trey Lance with that same team though, right?

[@Slhazzard]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Howell becomes the full time starter if anything happens to Geno.

[@opa-age]

Seems to me the success of the QB is directly proportional to how good the team that recruited them...

[@nedruss7040]

This gives you an idea how completely dysfunctional the Patriots' coaching & front office have become. A QB desperate to save his brief NFL career spends a few days in the building, then walks away without a word. He didn't even want on the practice squad. He'd rather waste away in the USFL.

[@Neckrollios18]

Sam Howell wasnt that bad, and can definitely be salvaged.

[@Corywinget81]

The transfer portal us killing college football.

[@austinbobstin4796]

How has Sam Howell not takin advantage of his chance hes the guy here no one else will be close

[@stayyindaygaming]

I like how he completely missed the point of desmond ridder. The guy literally turned the ball over like every 7-8 plays. 12 interceptions and 6 fumbles.

[@clintpreslar452]

I wanna see Howell get another chance. That commanders oline was trash and they started trading away players mid season for a rebuild. Idk if he’ll ever be a starter, but I think it’s worth giving him a second look if he’s able to start any games with Seattle. The dude showed a lot of toughness with how many sacks he was taking (some are definitely on him, but his line didn’t help very much), plus he could put up good yardage. Idk he just didn’t seem like a bust, just like an inexperienced player on a subpar team.

[@collin.grant1]

Well no one was off the charts great looking. Idk what anyone else expected.

[@JNN-]

Teams by and large do not know how QB development works. Some of these QBs were never pro bowl level talent but some do have talent but do not have the necessary coaching or system around them.

[@christune4326]

Purdy 🐐

[@Jadkin69]

Zappe is good, that fact you think Sam even looks like a starter surprises me

[@TWAHAN]

People say Penix was a bad pick by Atlanta, but many "Experts" wanted Seattle to take Malik at #9 in '22.

[@yungtoolshed251]

Most of these QBs were overrated considering how weak of a class this was. Most of these guys project out as high end spot starters

[@jacktheripper8817]

I think it needs to said that pickett wasn't given a fair chance without the horrible OC Canada there. I would of liked to see what he would of done in a full season under a different Oc

[@WardWerks]

Titans had no reason to draft Willis. Knew Tannehill was going to hate on him. He was better off with the Steelers. They wasted his rookie year.

[@redgoldrainwater5508]

Lol as a niners fan i think the 2022 qb class was one of the best

[@katiecaddle209]

How was the 2022 class the best when all those age drafted are either backups to their team or was traded away except Purdy lol Purdy walked into a top team. We all know Purdy would have looked like shit if he had fourth stringers as his weapon

[@redgoldrainwater5508]

@katiecaddle209 stop...Purdy is elite. If his wrs are sooo good then why isn't anyone offering a top 10 pick for one of them? BA had 1 1000 yard season..that narrative is tired
