Jacob Eason, Washington

Jacob Eason is the better version of Rudolph in nearly every way. Listed at 6’6” and 227 pounds, Eason has a prototype NFL body, but there is a noticeable difference in his velocity when throwing the football. Eason also possesses good accuracy and has the ability to drop the ball in the bucket down the field. While he’s not a runner, Eason makes Rudolph look like Joe Flacco when on the move. The former five-star recruit has enough mobility to extend the play and even move the chains with his legs.

Jordan Love, Utah State

Another big quarterback with incredible physical gifts. Jordan Love has the potential to be a long-time NFL starter if he can get everything together. His biggest knock is his decision-making – which like Rudolph, needs to do a better job here. However, he is significantly more talented as a passer. Love is a raw prospect, but unlike Rudolph, his upside is not limited due to his arm talent.
