Next years QB class. ESPN printed the spring grades for the senior QBs.
Recent history has demonstrated the early "spring grades" disseminated to subscriber teams by the National and Blesto scouting combines usually mean very little by the time the following year's draft rolls around. Notable in this spring's National report, though, is the grade that the combine has assigned to University of Texas quarterback Chris Simms. The son of former Giants star Phil Simms has a 5.5 grade and there are five seniors with better ratings. The passers with grades of 5.0 or better on National's nine-point scale are: Byron Leftwich (Marshall), 6.7; Ken Dorsey (Miami), 6.5; Dave Ragone (Louisville), 6.5; Brian St. Pierre (Boston College), 6.4; Seneca Wallace (Iowa State), 5.8; Simms, 5.5; Kyle Boler (California), 5.4; Carson Palmer (Southern Cal), 5.4; Marquel Blackwell (South Florida), 5.3; Daniel Cobb (Auburn), 5.0; Jason Thomas (Nevada-Las Vegas), 5.0; and Justin Wood (Portland State), 5.0.
Keep in mind the final grades for Carr 6.4, Harrington 6.3, and Ramsey 5.8 if I remember correctly. All three of these guys were first round picks. If the gradeing system stays true that would 5 to 6 qbs picked in the first. That doesn't include the 3 junior QBs that could come out early that would most deffinitly get 1st round consideration(Grossman, Manning, Clausen). The two guys on this list to watch this season are Senneca Wallace and Chris Simms. They both have the size and arm strength the NFL covets, but have suffered from irratic junior seasons. If they can bounce back and play with consistentcy, and eliminate the many illivised throws they had last year, they will move to the top of this list with Leftwitch.
