How I ended up ranking NFL franchises instead of quarterbacks 🧵 Last month I got annoyed in a dynasty league chat when someone called a QB a “bust.” I’d watched him. I’d scouted him. He was good. So I asked a simple question: Do QBs actually fail or do teams fail them?

I couldn't laugh harder or care less at the NFL complaining about what College Football isn't doing for it

@sharpereview Oh gosh I want it to be Jadan Craig so badly! I think the move to TCU elevates his stock but not to that stratosphere.

The question is who could this be for 2027.

@MattFFDynasty My reply…

Leaguemates in every single dynasty league I’m in: “Pick OTB, looking for 2027 picks” Me:

@ChrisCooper_NFL Here was my take on him! I’m always a sucker for good DB Play…. Definitely a guilty pleasure but I loved his tape!

I’m two games into Chandler Rivers’ film and can almost tell you without a shadow of a doubt he will see the field early in his career.

Happy birthday to me. At the 1.07 of a combined rookie / Devy draft I select Malachi Toney. The rebuild is on!

@JTTcup Only from the realest commish around! Appreciate you brother!

@PoshplaysFF No messages wishing you a HAPPY FORTIETH then?

Love my phone blowing up today with texts and WhatsApp’s for draft advice as loads of rookie drafts kick off!

Two Devy Drafts on the go this is a beautiful 40th birthday!

@OsAcrossThePond Never apologise I bloody love it!

@PoshplaysFF Apologies

Imagine telling someone after Harold Perkins’ Freshman year he would be a 6th Rounder 😳

I got bullied by the @RavensATP crew into scouting punters… Ryan Eckley….

I love Chandler Rivers at this pick! Fun player with the opportunity to develop into a starting nickel

Ravens fans… I’m new to the scouting and player evaluation game but here are my takes on our day 2 and 3 picks so far… I don’t have a report on Ioane because im still working on my understanding of O line play! Enjoy! #Ravensflock @Ravens @UKRavens @RavensATP @Ravens_In_5 @British_Raven19 @RavensInUK @lockedonravens @devpanchwagh @NflOgden @DeCostaLacie

Love the Ravens getting Elijah Sarratt at 115th overall! Based on his #ReceptionPerception Prospect Profile, he looks like the perfect candidate to go from a perimeter on-ball college receiver to a condensed Z and big slot in the NFL. Below average success rates vs. man and press coverage, but posted an 83.3% success rate vs. zone coverage, second-best in the class. His toughness, smarts and great hands will be better expressed inside than outside in the pros. Since they took a pure perimeter X yesterday in Lane, he should get a shot to make that conversion. Was my best available WR heading into Day 3 and had him over several guys who went ahead of him yesterday. Full profile: receptionperception.com/elijah-sarratt…

This isn’t about ceilings. It’s about survival. And in the NFL, that’s usually decided by the environment, not the player. Day 3 QBs don’t need the perfect situation. They just need one that doesn’t break them.

Most of these QBs won’t fail because of talent. They’ll fail because: • No stability • No patience • No development runway So the FSI lens shifts: 🟢 Development Friendly → chance to stick 🟠 Stash / Uncertain → outcome depends on situation 🔴 Burn Risk → likely churned before development

Day 3 QB picks need a different lens. This isn’t about finding a franchise QB anymore. It’s about environment. Day 1–2: Can this team develop a starter? Day 3: Can this team develop anything at all?
