A poll of 25 executives has Mendoza ranked as the top QB for the 2026 draft, which is completely different than the same poll that was taken in September. Shows you how quickly things can change:

With the college football season sprinting down the stretch run and the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh just 160 days away, ESPN repolled 25 NFL scouts and executives on the top draft-eligible quarterback. Results prove to be starkly different from the previous poll just six weeks ago. When polled back in September, South Carolina signal-caller LaNorris Sellers (8) was the top vote-getter, with LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier (7) slightly behind him. Others who received at least three votes were Carson Beck of Miami and John Mateer of Oklahoma. Just six weeks later, the list looks almost unrecognizable.

In the most recent poll, released this week, Fernando Mendoza (13) of Indiana led all quarterbacks, followed by Dante Moore (6) of Oregon and Ty Simpson (3) of Alabama. It is just the latest example of how volatile the quarterback prospect market has become. “It’s not a stellar class,” one scout told ESPN. “If you add the maybes [who have eligibility and could leave school], now it gets interesting. The top is better than last year’s class, for sure.”

The rise of Moore and Simpson makes them polarizing prospects, as both signal-callers are in their first season as starters. While history of first round quarterbacks with just one-year of starting experience have not panned out well in recent NFL memory (Anthony Richardson, Dwayne Haskins, Mitchell Trubisky, Mark Sanchez), it may make business sense for either, or both, Moore and Simpson to take advantage of what is viewed as a ‘weak’ quarterback class and strike while the iron’s hot. Surely, it will be a much-debated topic and a top storyline over the final two months of the year.
 
Here’s Serritella notes from week 10 when we were slated to pick 4th overall:

As we enter Week 10 of the NFL, there are several teams projected to pick inside the top ten who could be in need of a rookie quarterback. Those organizations include the New Orleans Saints (No.1), New York Jets (No.3), Miami Dolphins (No.4), Cleveland Browns (No.6) and Las Vegas Raiders (No.7).However, it’s a supply and demand league and there would appear to be just three signal-callers viewed as potential franchise quarterbacks. How they rank depends on who you ask but thus far Fernando Mendoza of Indiana, Ty Simpson of Alabama and Dante Moore of Oregon are viewed as the cream of the crop. Adding another layer of intrigue is that all three still have college eligibility remaining. For Simpson and Moore, who are one-year starters, history suggests that they should indeed return back to school for another year of development.

The history of one-year starters at the NCAA ranks chosen in the first round of the NFL Draft has not translated well in recent history. Examples include Mitchell Trubisky (No.2 overall in 2027), Mark Sanchez (No.5 overall in 2009) and Akili Smith (No.3 overall in 1999), all of whom had just one season of starting experience prior to entering the NFL. However, in what is viewed as a ‘down’ year for quarterbacks, the opportunity might be ripe for Simpson and Moore to strike while the iron is hot.

The wildcards of the draft could reside in the SEC. Coming into the year, Garrett Nussmeier of LSU was widely considered the top consensus quarterback prospect. While injuries have led to struggles this season in Baton Rouge, Nussmeier does bring vast experience, smart decision-making and a strong enough arm to still be viewed amongst the premier quarterbacks. In South Carolina, dual-threat LaNorris Sellers is a polarizing prospect in the mold of Anthony Richardson. He possesses all the physical tools and size that scouts crave but has yet to put it all together. Sellers could opt to return, transfer or declare.

Not every team will be fortunate to land a young, promising quarterback via the draft. Some veteran signal-callers who could surface as trade candidates this offseason include Kyler Murray of the Arizona Cardinals and Mac Jones of the San Francisco 49ers. Of course, Kirk Cousins of the Atlanta Falcons is another name often associated with teams in need of a quarterback.

For organizations selecting in the top ten who already have a franchise signal-caller such as the Tennessee Titans (No.2) and New York Giants (No.5), they will be in the market for a blue-chip talent such as Miami edge rusher Ruben Bain or Ohio State safety Caleb Downs. Another player catching steam is Buckeyes teammate Arvell Reese, as the do-it-all linebacker is rapidly rising up draft boards.

The measuring stick for performance is the rookie deal—four seasons plus one optional season—and whether the quarterback was able to make the team competitive for a Super Bowl run.

Your POV reads as if you are less interested in a winning QB from a winning org. than you are with a blue-collar productive football player.

I can't disagree.

The QBs who are "bought" in the college ranks and put in a situation where the school has the status and money to field a real team around him look good on paper ... when the rubber hits the road in the NFL, they tend to show their warts.

The rookie deal is the indicator that reveals whether you drafted the right guy. You have 5 years to build a team around him. If, by the third year, you are no closer to your goal than you were, it is time to move on. If the needle isn't moving by year three, the owner should seriously consider a change.

The league is no longer set up for long-term development due to the prevalence of free agency. "If he doesn't bite as a pup"...

I'm not saying you should trash the team every three years. I am saying the QB is the catalyst for, at least, the offense. If the QB is not the reason you are winning close games and upsets, then find another one. You should know by year three whether your QB has that one intangible that works for your team.

Sometimes it's escape artistry... sometimes it's scrambling. Maybe he's lightning fast with outstanding read capability and pre-snap awareness. But it has to be something, it has to be consistent, and the QB has to stay on the field more often than not. If that isn't happening by the third year, it is less likely to happen on your team with the current QB.

This McDolphins offense needs a catalyst. ( a person or thing that provokes or speeds significant change or action)

Yes, we are on the same page.

More specifically, when acquiring quarterbacks, we should look at the performance on volume and efficiency of the past college prospects who took their NFL team to the Super Bowl, or at least the Conference Championship game, on rookie deal.

Example, start by comparing play volume, passing completions percentage, and rushing average:

2024 Draft:
Jayden Daniels, 12G, 327 attempts, 135 rushes: 39 keepers/game (NFC Championship, rookie year)
72.2% completions, 8.4 rushing avg.

2022 Draft:
Brock Purdy,13G, 407 attempts, 85 rushes: 38 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
71.7% completions, 2.8 rushing avg.

2020 Draft:
Joe Burrow, 15G, 527 attempts, 115 rushes: 43 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
76.3% completions, 3.2 rushing avg.
Jalen Hurts, 14G, 340 attempts, 233 rushes: 41 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
69.7% completions, 5.6 rushing avg.

2017 Draft:
Patrick Mahomes: 12G, 591 attempts, 131 rushes: 60 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
65.7% completions, 2.2 rushing avg.

2016 Draft:
Jared Goff, 13G, 529 attempts, 56 rushes: 45 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
64.5% completions, -0.1 rushing avg.

2012 Draft:
Russell Wilson 2011, 14G, 309 attempts, 79 rushes: 28 keepers/game
72.2% completions.
Russell Wilson 2010, 13G, 527 attempts, 143 rushes: 52 keepers/game
58.4% completions
Russell Wilson combined: 27G, 836 attempts, 222 rushes, 39 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
64% completions, 3.5 rushing avg

2011 Draft:
Cam Newton, 14G, 280 attempts, 264 rushes: 39 keepers/game (Super Bowl, fifth year option)
66.1% completions, 5.6 rushing avg.
Colin Kaepernick, 14G, 359 attempts, 173 rushes: 38 keepers/game (Super Bowl, rookie deal)
64.9% completions, 7.0 rushing avg.

We start there, by eliminating prospects who do not have the basic volume and efficiency, 38+ keepers per game, 64% completions, and generally positive rushing average, or at least 0 on low rushes so they don't hurt you if they cannot rush.

Dolphins picks:
Tua Tagovailoa 2018, 15G, 355 attempts, 57 rushes: 27 keepers/game
69.0% completions, 3.3 rushing avg.
VERDICT: Undraftable

Quinn Ewers, 14G, 445 attempts, 57 rushes: 36 keepers/game
65.8% completions, -1.4 rushing avg.
VERDICT: Undraftable

Skylar Thompson, 10G, 233 attempts, 47 rushes: 28 keepers/game
69.5% completions, 0.1 rushing avg.
VERDICT: Undraftable

Brandon Doughty, 14G. 540 attempts, 27 rushes, 41 keepers/game
71.9% completions, -4.5 rushing avg
VERDICT - Day 3/UDFA, we'll keep him if the HC likes him, or undraftable which is what I prefer.

Ryan Tannehill, 13G, 531 attempts, 58 rushes: 45 keepers/game
61.9% completions, 5.3 rushing avg.
VERDICT: UDFA PRACTICE SQUAD, developmental, needs to improve completion percentage by rushing more, learn to play efficiently at high volume by balancing passing and rushing. Give him the GB, sit-for-three-years treatment and monitor progress. Or, undraftable which is what I prefer.

If your method holds water, and your examples do support your POV, then why on earth are those QBs drafted high or at all?

I'm not being argumentative.

What is different in the way you grade QBs and the way GMs view the same?

Personally I think our priority should be to gather enough pieces on offense to make Tua look decent again. Tua is like a bar. If Tua can operate your offense then your offense is good enough to support a rookie QB. Then you draft such rookie.

Then you pick pieces on defense up. Letting the defense stink also helps you lose enough to be in position to pick a QB.
 
Rough Ranking, in rounds determined by above, and then by consensus:

DAY 1
1. Haynes King
2. Trinidan Chambliss
3. Cade Klubnik
4. Joe Fa gnano
5. Diego Pavia
6. Byrum Brown

Day 2 - We can eliminate these from consideration since there are plenty of day 1 prospects. We will come back to day 2 prospects if the day 1 prospect are filtered out for some reason later. For now these are of no interest.
7. Fernando Mendoza
8. Ty Simpson
9. Josh Hoover
10. Darian Mensah

EFFICIENCY OF PERFORMANCE:
Minimum: 18 keepers/sack, (SACKR)
Minimum: 43 keepers/int (INTR)
Maximum: 17 keepers/TD (TDR)

1. HAYNES KING: 57.8 SACKR, 115.5 INTR, 17.1 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 2, needs significant adjustment to NFL. Low int rate is weird.

2. TRINIDAD CHAMBLISS: 51.9 SACKR, 181.9 INTR, 19.1 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 3, needs significant adjustment to NFL. Low int rate is weird.

3. CADE KLUBNIK 2 seasons: 28.2 SACKR, 89.6 INTR, 15.4 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still

4. JOE FA6NANO: 30.6 SACKR, 459.0 INTR, 14.8 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 3, needs significant adjustment. Low int rate is weird.

5. DIEGO PAVIA: 26.1 SACKR, 74.0 INTR, 13.1 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still.

6. BYRUM BROWN: 29.8 SACKR, 68.1 INTR, 12.9 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still.


UPDATED RANKING - THE ONLY DRAFTABLE PROSPECTS
Based on scoring (TDR), and accounting for 2-season risk for Klubnik because he had a bad season this year:
Delete age 25+ 2026. (King and Fa gnano)
Downgrade one-season starters by one day.

DAY 1:
1. Byrum Brown (comp: Jalen Hurts)
2. Diego Pavia (comp: Russ Wilson)

Day 2/3
3. Cade Klubnik * not enough scoring (comp: Brock Purdy)

UDFA:
4. Trinidad Chambliss, Darian Mensah, Carlos Del Rio Wilson, Noah Fifita, Devon Dampier, Brendon Lewis * volume and efficiency are good but they do not provide enough scoring at this time.

CONCLUSION
We are good. We can get a starter on day 3, potentially in UDFA. Klubnik is ranked QB #20 overal , Pavia #24, Brown #26. One or more will be available on day 3.
Now we can watch film and talk to them to see which one we like best. That's all we are interested in.
No need to look at Simpson or Mendoza, they are #1 and #3 overall. We are not interested.

I have no idea how others do it. I base it on the "Super Bowl" matching, as explained above.

5. Diego Pavia
6. Byrum Brown

Day 2 - We can eliminate these from consideration since we there are plenty of day 1 prospects. We will come back to day 2 prospects if the day 1 prospect are filtered out for some reason later. For now these are of no interest.
7. Fernando Mendoza
8. Ty Simpson
9. Josh Hoover
10. Darian Mensah

EFFICIENCY OF PERFORMANCE:
Minimum: 18 keepers/sack, (SACKR)
Minimum: 43 keepers/int (INTR)
Maximum: 17 keepers/TD (TDR)

1. HAYNES KING: 57.8 SACKR, 115.5 INTR, 17.1 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 2, needs significant adjustment to NFL. Low int rate is weird.

2. TRINIDAD CHAMBLISS: 51.9 SACKR, 181.9 INTR, 19.1 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 3, needs significant adjustment to NFL. Low int rate is weird.

3. CADE KLUBNIK 2 seasons: 15.4 SACKR, 89.6 INTR, 15.4 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still, sacks are not that important, he is a good decision maker and scores well.

4. JOE FA GNANO: 14.8 SACKR, 459.0 INTR, 14.8 TDR
Verdict: Move to Day 3, needs significant adjustment. Low int rate is weird.

5. DIEGO PAVIA: 26.1 SACKR, 74.0 INTR, 13.1 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still.

6. BYRUM BROWN: 29.8 SACKR, 68.1 INTR, 12.9 TDR
Verdict: Day 1 still.


UPDATED RANKING
Based on scoring (TDR), and accounting for 2-season risk for Klubnik because he had a bad season this year:
Delete age 25+ 2026. (King and Fa gnano)
Downgrade one-season starters by one day.

DAY 1:
1. Byrum Brown
2. Diego Pavia
3. Cade Klubnik

Day 3:
4. Trinidad Chambliss

CONCLUSION
We are good. We can get a starter on day 3, potentially in UDFA. Klubnik is #20, Pavia #24, Brown #26. One or more will be available on day 3.
Now we can watch film and talk to them to see which one we like best.
No need to look at Simpson or Mendoza, they #1 and #3. We are not interested.

What the f is a “keeper”?

Personally I think our priority should be to gather enough pieces on offense to make Tua look decent again. Tua is like a bar. If Tua can operate your offense then your offense is good enough to support a rookie QB. Then you draft such rookie.

Then you pick pieces on defense up. Letting the defense stink also helps you lose enough to be in position to pick a QB.

Dolphins organizations need figure out what goal in Miami is first. I dont think McDaniel or Ross have realizes Tua ain't answer yet. Dolphins organization just happy to be wildcard team or 8 to 9 win yr nothing else. 1984 is longtime sense team went to sb.
