Quarterbacks.

Drew Mestemaker

The 2025 Burlsworth Trophy winner threw for 4,379 yards and 34 touchdowns at North Texas, then transferred to Oklahoma State and opened 2026 behind one of the most pressured pockets in the country.

Darian Mensah

A 6-3, 205-pound rhythm passer who threw for 3,973 yards with 34 touchdowns and six interceptions at Duke in 2025 after 2,723 yards at Tulane the year before. Elite decision-making and touch, with an arm that is good rat

Trinidad Chambliss

The zero-star Ferris State champion who led the SEC in passing yards in his first FBS season, threw three picks in 445 attempts, and now has to prove the pocket discipline caught up to the improvisation.

CJ Carr

He threw for 2,741 yards with 24 touchdowns and six interceptions as a redshirt freshman starter at Notre Dame and enters 2026 in the QB1 conversation for the 2027 class.

Julian Sayin

Julian Sayin is the pocket surgeon timing offenses covet. His pinpoint accuracy and elite processing project him as a Day 1 franchise QB, with the potential to redefine positional efficiency.

Arch Manning

A pocket quarterback who wins with pre-snap command and on-time accuracy rather than improvisation. Three years of tape say the operation is professional; the open question is what he becomes when the first read dies and

Dante Moore

A modern passer prototype with elite arm talent and fluid throwing mechanics. Dante Moore possesses franchise-quarterback upside if he can marry his aggression with more consistent and refined post-snap processing.

Jayden Maiava

A big-framed Hawaiian quarterback who took over at USC and delivered a 3,700-yard season, Maiava pairs a live arm with improving command of Lincoln Riley's offense.

LaNorris Sellers

The most physically imposing quarterback in the class threw for 2,534 yards as a redshirt freshman, took a step back in 2025, and opened 2026 with 19 of 23 for 270 yards and three touchdowns.

DJ Lagway

Lagway was the No. 1 quarterback of the 2024 class, started as a true freshman at Florida, threw for 1,915 yards as an 18-year-old and then never turned the corner: 2,264 yards with 16 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in

Drake Lindsey

Lindsey is a 6-5, 230-pound pocket quarterback who took over Minnesota's offense as a redshirt freshman in 2025 and never gave it back, throwing for 2,382 yards with 18 touchdowns and six interceptions across 13 games. H

Austin Simmons

A young, left-handed pocket passer with downfield production and a growing situational résumé, Simmons offers developmental upside if his limited starting experience becomes more consistent execution against stronger def

Gunner Stockton

A productive, movement-capable operator in a structured offense, Stockton offers a credible developmental NFL case if his efficient college execution translates to tighter windows, faster pressure answers and less forgiv

Conner Weigman

An experienced passer with legitimate movement value and markedly improved scoring efficiency, Weigman projects as a developmental NFL option if his current production survives tighter windows and an unresolved foot or a

Sam Leavitt

A four-star recruit from West Linn, Oregon who started at Michigan State, became Big 12 Freshman of the Year at Arizona State, and arrived at LSU in 2026 as the top-ranked transfer in the country. At 6-2 and 216 pounds h

Brendan Sorsby

A lightly recruited Lake Dallas product who became Cincinnati's starter and finished 2025 with 2,800 yards, 27 touchdowns and only five interceptions, Sorsby entered the portal as its top-ranked quarterback and signed wi

Dylan Raiola

A former elite recruit who left Nebraska for Oregon, Raiola took over after Dante Moore's season-ending injury and is again showing the pocket command and accuracy that made him a Day 1 starter as a freshman.

John Mateer

A mobile, aggressive playmaker whose improvisation can rescue broken possessions, Mateer needs more repeatable placement and pocket decisions to turn his college creation ability into a dependable NFL passing role.

Josh Hoover

A 6-2, 200-pound quarterback who transferred from TCU to Indiana for his final season after throwing for 3,472 yards, 29 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in 2025. A pure pocket passer with a live arm and a 9,629-yard coll

Demond Williams Jr.

Undersized dual-threat quarterback who completed 69.5 percent of 354 attempts for 3,065 yards, 25 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 2025 while adding 611 rushing yards and six scores. Quick processor with an ultra-co

Byrum Brown

A 6-3, 235-pound quarterback who threw for 3,158 yards with 28 touchdowns and seven interceptions and ran for 1,008 yards and 14 scores at South Florida in 2025 before transferring to Auburn. Genuine dual-threat volume,
