Note to non play-off NFL teams: Only one QB in this draft class ended up transferring into a worse situation— and came out more pro-ready. Spencer Rattler. These others who transferred ended up in better situations. Michael Penix Jr. went from Indiana to Washington, Bo Nix went from Auburn to Oregon, Jayden Daniels went from ASU to LSU and Caleb Williams went from Oklahoma to USC. Rattler has been molded by fire. This season he played on the No. 72 ranked Gamecocks and according to Sports Illustrated (pre-season), that team had the No. 1 hardest strength of schedule. Yet Rattler finished the season with a higher completion percentage than USC QB Caleb Williams who played for No. 33 ranked USC that had the 97th hardest schedule. Rattler 68.9% Williams 68.6% Actually, Rattler finished 2023 with a higher completion percentage than not just Williams, but also Michael Penix Jr. (66.7%), Joe Milton III (64.7%), and Drake Maye too (63.3%). If you’re ever on a game show — Spencer Rattler had a higher COLLEGE CAREER completion percentage than Caleb Williams as well— 68.5% vs. 66.9%. Speaking of Rattler and Williams they did both indeed start their college careers at Oklahoma and I know narrative, “Well if Spencer Rattler is better than Caleb Williams then why did he lose his starting job to Williams?” At the time Rattler was “benched” in 2021 early in that Texas game, Rattler was coming off a bowl win the season prior, was 5-0 and he had completed 76.9% of his passes so far that season. The week prior to being “benched,” Rattler completed 88.0% vs. Kansas State. 🤔 Lincoln Riley (who was the head coach at Oklahoma at the time) and Caleb Williams ended up together at USC after that season. What a “coincidence.” And if anybody still thinks the benching was justified— and that Caleb Williams out performed Spencer Rattler in that 2021 season at Oklahoma—WRONG — in 2021 Caleb Williams 64.5% completion percentage and Spencer Rattler 74.9%. The only reason there’s a perception Williams is “better” is because of mainstream media’s crusade. Highlights have been pounded into our heads with a social media jackhammer. However, game film and the full body of work paints a different story. Now for the most interesting part. The game film. Yeah, this is not just about stats and I’m not a stats scout. Stats are a piece to the puzzle, and they can help to confirm the evaluation, but game film trumps everything and in terms of game film, Spencer Rattler produced better game film than Caleb Williams in 2022 and 2023. When I say better game film I mean in terms of an NFL projection. I watch these QBs though ‘NFL Colored Glasses,’ looking for traits that have been proven to succeed in the NFL. Things like going through progressions, time to throw, downfield ball placement and ball security, leadership, how teammates respond to them and how they conduct themselves. Williams game film grade in 2022 (second-round) and in 2023 (fourth-round). Rattler’s game film grade in 2022 (first-round) and in 2023 (first-round). I evaluated every single snap of both Williams and Rattler in both seasons which is likely more than any draft analyst out there doing this. One thing is for certain, I offer more evidence. It’s all right here — including the proof. This isn’t a hot take and I’d rather die than do anything just for clicks. This is backed by game film links for anybody and everybody to watch. I don’t expect to be taken at my word. firstroundmock.com/2024/01/s… firstroundmock.com/2024/01/f… Both of those links —link back also to their 2022 full season evaluations. 2023 time to throw (PFF): Rattler 2.82 seconds Williams 3.21 seconds What Rattler did at South Carolina in 2023 is borderline miraculous with the injuries at receiver and offensive line and the No. 128 (out of 132) ranked running attack. 2023 sacks: Rattler: 40 Williams: 33 2024 #NFL Draft
