QB Draft Rankings: Week 6

#1) Jake Fromm – Georgia (Bye)

#2) Tua Tagovailoa – Alabama

Previous Rank: #2
Trend: –

Tua’s game against Ole Miss showed a lot of good aspects of his game, including his quick release, vision, and ability to zip the ball into tight windows. It also saw the return of his bad habit of staring down receivers.

#3) Kellen Mond – Texas A&M

Previous Rank: #5
Trend: +2

Mond had the pleasure of playing against an improved pass rush in Arkansas, but managed to maintain his level of composure, and ability to play at an effective level.

#4) Anthony Gordon – Washington State

Previous Rank: #9
Trend: +5

Gordon’s losing effort against Utah did not go without some positives for the young QB. For one, Gordon showcased his exceptional touch on the pass and how well he can dictate trajectory on his throws. His accuracy was also a huge plus throughout the game, and definitely shows he does not fold to adversity.

#5) Nate Stanley – Iowa

Previous Rank: #3
Trend: -2

While Stanley did not have a poor game against Mid Tennessee, Gordon’s ability to play against a tough opponent highlighted Stanley’s complacency in last week’s game. He showed what he needed to do, but once again Stanley has issue hitting the deep passes.

#6) Joe Burrow – LSU (Bye)

Previous Rank: #6
Trend: –

#7) Jalen Hurts – Oklahoma

Previous Rank: #14
Trend: +7

Hurts continues to climb with his explosiveness and ability to sling the ball. While the mental aspect of his game is still developing and a huge question mark right now, it is no mistake if given the opportunity, Hurts can lob the ball anywhere on the field with electric accuracy and fire on the pass.

#8) Sam Ehlinger – Texas (Bye)

Previous Rank: #8
Trend: –

#9) Mason Fine – North Texas

Previous Rank: #16
Trend: +7

Fine is a fascinating QB to watch and scout compared to his peers. Unlike others on this list, North Texas does not rely heavily on Fine to lead the offense, instead having him run a game manager role. Because of this, Fine does not have much film compared to others. What you can see is a mature and patient QB standing under center who can do what is needed of him when the time comes, though it remains to be seen what happens when a team really needs to lean on him.

#10) Justin Herbert – Oregon (Bye)

Previous Rank: #10

#11) Steven Montez – Colorado (Bye)

Previous Rank: #11
