We know the records and challenges of these two as well as the combine results.

They're projected anywhere from RD 2-5, and both will sit for a while to grow before they get a real chance to start.

Who has the intangibles advantage? How much does athleticim factor?

If you're an NFL GM which do you take first?

Hurts to play a different position. Fromm can’t play a different position and he’s an awful QB

Hurts, because even if I see him as my developmental QB, I can still utilize him as a package player to get his athleticism on field.

Fromm is equal to zach mettenberger

Hurts could be Tyrell Pryor type player

Anyone needing a "right now" qb would need to take Jalen.

Anyone looking for a solid backup to develop behind an aging veteran, it's a coin flip between hurts and fromm. Jalen is a better qb right now but Fromm could have more upside.

Well he’s getting drafted, can’t be that bad.

Fromm didn't help himself at the Combine. The constant evaluation is that he has a weak arm.

He’s really bad. He won’t go before round 4

Fromm: Average Arm, Bad Accuracy, Slow

Hurts: Good Arm, Average Accuracy, Fast

I love Jalen, but you forgot an extremely important component that Jalen is kind of awful at: reading a defense and subsequent decision-making.

Geez dude do you even watch CFB

Hurts has a much better grasp of the pass game than Pryor ever did

Hurts has tons more upside than Fromm even as a passing QB in the pocket

Hurts is tons more ready for the NFL than Tebow was, where was that guy drafted?

I wish the best for both, but neither seem to be long term in the NFL. Both will do well in life.

Neither are the caliber to be starters in the NFL...

Well this just isn’t true. He led the SEC in completion percentage in 2018 and was 2nd in 2017.

Completion % =/= accuracy

The thing about Hurts is he appears to be improving in all facets of being a QB. Hurts even did well with Steve Maruicci's white board quiz. And, we know Hurts is a hard worker. I think Fromm has maxed out.

I agree. He could throw to the back shoulder of his receiver better than any QB in college. I'm afraid Kirby's offense didn't allow him to flourish...like Saban's with Jalen.

Yeah, I've seen a ton of awful qbs get drafted throughout the years

He's far from great but don't act like he's awful.

That can bite you in the booty. Matt Jones was an athletic freak of nature but he never really panned out in the NFL.
