But, it’s hard to say one will be better than the other based off what even Brooks admitted was cherry-picked highlight footage for both guys. The highlight reels aren’t going to show you a string of 7 errant passes in a row. We don’t know how accurate either of them is down to down, drive to drive, blitzed or not blitzed, etc. without watching entire game films.
This is all correct, it's all projection.
A related point I saw Uncle Lou make the other day, he went back through 247 QB rankings over the last several years in sort of a "where are they now?" segment. It was pretty eye opening. Beck was the 9th QB in his class. When you look at all the other QB's ranked ahead of him, only one other guy ended up having quality careers. Most of the other QB's on the list you've never heard of and never will hear of again. The point being- just because Raiola is #2 and Puglisi is #9 doesn't really mean shite, statistically. Of course, in the grand scheme, 5 stars tend to do better than 4 stars, and on down the line. But the individual player ranking is not very relevant.
Some edits made above.

A perfect illustration of that was the year Stafford came to UGA, there was a little handwringing that Arkansas got the #1 QB Mitch Mustain, who never really became anything and probably cost Nutt his job at Arky. Stafford was the #1 overall pick, a SB champ and is probably borderline HOF at this point.
