Who was the best quarterback Napier has coached again?


Levi Lewis was actually pretty good for that level of football and the type of offense they ran at USL.

I will. He's the most physically gifted Quarterback in the SEC, and with proper coaching he'll be in the very upper echelon in terms of production. These mocks have been projecting him to go in the top 10 of next years draft for months, you'd have to be an idiot to act surprised.

That's a shame

I don’t understand the Levis hype. His stats in conference games is mediocre at best

Someone help me understand the Levis hype. I watched him several times last year and thought he was average to solid


He put up the numbers he did with pretty much just Wandale to throw to (and occasionally Ali when he wasn’t injured). He’ll have a more well rounded offense, another year in the system (Scangarello has an almost identical system to Cohen with a handful more wrinkles), and in terms of arm strength/technique he’s got an NFL arm.

ETA: Probably also worth noting that he’s going to be highly marketable off the field as well with his looks, personality, etc.

Mullen is a fraud.

Any coach could've done well developing a Tebow or Dak type qb.

Clay Helton got Sam Darnold into the league.

I'm going to go with the obvious homer take and say that you can probably flip-flop Will and Jalen and the list would be spot on.

Minus Anthony Richardson. This kid fricking crashes and burns this year.

Richardson will live in infamy for those last 3 minutes before the half in the Ga/Fla game. 21 points! I actually started feeling sorry for the guy

Replace Richardson with Stetson and the list looks pretty good.

So that'll be 8 starters on last year's defense that were first round picks.

If the East actually has 2 teams not named Georgia with top 10 QB NFL prospects the the East is going to be a heck of a lot better than we are getting credit for!

I have a hard time seeing Nolan Smith that high. He's athletically freakish but he's played edge and isn't prototypical. His athleticism is 1st round but everything else I've seen on him says round 2. That's because he doesn't have the length and pass-rush skills. He's an athletically freakish edge-setter right now.

Will Anderson will be probably be the best player overall on draft day, but a QB might still sneak into that 1st spot.

Levis is a plus athlete with above average NFL arm talent and size. He struggled with touch and moving onto 2nd or 3rd options. Talent wise he's a strong candidate to go high but needs to make a big leap. My guess is he goes late first or the second round to a team that can sit and develop him for at least a season. Bottom line is he has a high ceiling and low floor right now.

He was the best edge rusher last year but not eligible. This mock is one of the worst I've seen in awhile. A lot of these are big reaches.

Missing at least one ingredient, dedication. Will he put in the work, does he have the focus and skills to manage not just as a QB1, but as an elite QB1?

AR15 Florida QB with nothing to show?
Will Levis a guy that has never lived up to his potential

Pretty much a shitty list.
