Gunnin' for #1 QB Spot in Class of 2013

[shylo3716]

I'm going to list potential 2013 QB prospects who will fight for the #1 spot come next year. Keep in mind a few guys from the projected 2012 class may return.

Order varies for the moment. I will officially update this after the underclassmen deadline.

1. Matt Barkley USC
2. Aaron Murray UGA
3. Tyler Bray Tennessee
4. Landry Jones Oklahoma*
5. Tyler Wilson Arkansas

Honorable mention

• Mike Glennon NC State
• E.J. Manuel FSU
• Geno Smith West Virginia
• A.J. McCarron Alabama
• Tajh Boyd Clemson
• Logan Thomas Virginia Tech

[Sloopy]

It will be either Matt Barkley or Tyler Wilson

[SickwithIt1010]

Landry Jones would be dumb to come back, he will lose the job to Bell at the rate hes going.

Aaron Murray is tiny, I like him and I think he could be good but I dont see anyone taking him number 1 by any means.

I really like Bray, and hope he has a good year next season. Think hes got some potential.

Right now I have Barkley coming out. I really do believe if any QB returns from that class it would be Jones, which would make the 2013 class wide open.

[Raiderz4Life]

Yea I think Barkley comes back..if he does idk if anyone will take #1 from him.

1. Tyler Wilson
2. Tyler Bray
3. Landry Jones
4. Brock Osweiler
5. Casey Pachall


The first three are surefire first rounders as things stand now, even though I don't personally like Landry Jones much. Tyler Bray has the chance to be the best out of the bunch, even though he's proven a little less than those other guys. Still, when I watch him throw the football I come away seeing a guy who well could be a franchise quarterback in the NFL.

Remember Matt Ryan went #3 overall? So keep in mind, he can be the #1 QB off the board, just not the #1 overall pick.

Well Matt Ryan is 3 Inches taller then Murray.

I realized this. If you happened to come across the 2013 Mock posted in that forum you would see I pointed that out.

Ahh okay. I'll make a point of taking notice of every post you make from now on. Sorry about that.

My arguement is not him being the #1 QB. I'm just stating the obvious of what will be brought up, so I used the Ryan reference to give a clear visual of what may come about.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Anyone from the Virginia area.

[keylime_5]

let's wait and see which junior QBs declare before we worry about ranking next year's QBs. Barkley especially will be a big factor, there is a pretty decent chance he stays in school.

[RaiderNation]

I'm thinking Wilson or Barkley depending of if Barkley goes pro this year. Wilson is set to have a awesome year next season at Arkansas

[OSUGiants17]

Here's how I think it will end up:
1. Matt Barkley
2. Tyler Bray
3. Tyler Wilson
4. Brock Osweiler
5. Aaron Murray
6. Collin Klein
7. Tajh Boyd
8. Mike Glennon
9. Geno Smith
10. EJ Manuel

I like next years potential A LOT more than This years. This year has Luck, RG3, Landry(who I don't even like, all he has is the measureables, he'll bust if he has to start day 1), and Tannenhill(idk if I spelt it right, sorry)

[WT01]

Keith Price. There, I said it. In my eyes, the guy's not a bad prospect. He doesn't have elite arm strength but it's "good" at least and likely above average. He has good athleticism and generally makes good decisions. He already plays in a pro-style system and completed 67% of his passes even in a system that utilizes a more downfield passing game. Like Murray, he's not very big (listed as 6'1" and 195 pounds), but he's got a frame that will allow him to gain some weight and despite his height, he doesn't have a ton of balls batted down. I think he could potentially have a Robert Griffin-esque rise from obscurity to be a higher pick.

[FUNBUNCHER]

Tyler Wilson, Mike Glennon and Geno Smith will be the top rated pro prospects at the end of the 2012 season. Brock Osweiler is my darkhorse.

I like Price, but size will be as solid of a knock as they come on him. He's got a very quick release and throws a good ball down the field though, so we'll have to see. Can't see a quarterback who will likely measure at 6'0 on the nose nose(Locker and Mason Foster ended up being an inch shorter than their listed heights) going in the first few rounds though. Don't see Robert Griffin type ability there either, even with the size. Regardless of his pro prospects he should be a damn good player for Washington next year.

[CashmoneyDrew]

I hope Braysus stays for his senior year...

[MassNole]

It will be interesting to see what happens if E.J. Manuel has even a competent OL in front of him. He also needs to lose that video game glitch spin move he has when leaving the pocket.

[princefielder28]

1. Tyler Wilson - Arkansas
2. Tyler Bray - Tennessee*
3. Aaron Murray - Georgia*
4. Logan Thomas - Virginia Tech*
5. Geno Smith - West Virginia

That's how I see the Top 5 eligible QBs right now...whether Landry returns or not he wouldn't make my list

If Barkley is back I'd throw him between Bray and Murray

[Shane P. Hallam]

May be Barkley when all is said and done. Logan Thomas a nice sleeper that I like as well.

Not 1 757 prospect is in my top 5 BTW Glennon is listed where he should be.

[Bob Sanders Dreadlock]

Landry Jones being number 1
