There is no clear-cut first quarterback off the board yet

Paxton Lynch, the latest No. 1 quarterback for the 2016 NFL Draft, fell on his face against Navy Saturday night. He threw for 305 yards but it took 42 attempts and what really makes it bad is he lost to Navy. Quarterbacks are most measured by wins and losses so getting beat by a bunch of guys that will defending our country when the get out of school isn’t a good look.

Connor Cook and his 7th-ranked Michigan State team lost on Saturday to 4-6 Nebraska. Cook threw for 335 yards and four touchdowns but a quarterback with the No. 7-ranked team has to beat a 4-6 team. Plus he was inaccurate, missing wide-open throws without pressure bearing down on him.

Then you have Jared Goff, who was the No. 1 guy before, Lynch getting dealt with by Oregon. Yeah, he threw for 329 yards but he was wildly inaccurate, connecting on less the 50 percent of his passes. Goff hasn’t won a game since he started playing against decent teams, which was about four games ago.

And of course, there’s my guy, Christian Hackenberg, who lost to Northwestern like he was supposed to. He has nothing around him and my bet is if he switched places with any one of the others, he would do better than they are. He hasn’t exactly been perfect on a bad team but he has Penn State better than the other would.

But there’s no way I can prove that!

So what does all this mean?

I in no way mean to say they’re all no-good but on separation Saturday, all these quarterbacks did was clump themselves together. So there’s no clear-cut No. 1 quarterback prospect out there right now. And if they all keep playing the way they are, it will come down to the combine and Pro Days.
