QB thoughts on how the QBs looked at the combine:

The big 3

Wentz delivered, to my eye clearly threw the ball better then anyone there. Solid footwork on 5-7 step throws. Ball came out clean, threw the ball with confidence. Looked confident.

Goff quick feet, quick arm, footwork wasn't as crisp as Wentz (to be expected for spread guy) Very fluid, looks natural throwing the ball, not as much pop in his arm as Wentz though

LynchDidn't throw the ball as well as I saw on film, mainly b/c imo he was thinking about his footwork in 3-5-7 instead on just ripping the throws. To my eye he has one of the best arms in the draft but didn't throw that way. On film Pax is still my pick for #1 QB.

Other guys that stood out to me:

Jake BrissettNow I'm speaking strictly about the combine. Jake threw the ball as well as anyone. Good footwork but a little plodding. But the his throwing motion and delivery of the ball is fluid and easy. Has plenty of easy velocity and wasn't trying to gun every throw (kinda like Wentz). But when it came time to throw the go routes I thought he was the best

Stave- arm talent stood out to me, he was like a mini-jugs machine the ball comes out clean with velocity, compact and consistent. Every throw was solid and the throwing mechanics were consistent nearly identical. Footwork was solid but a little choppy; missed the least throws to my recall

BoykinThrew the ball well. Nice compact delivery. Consistent mechanics. Footwork on the the 5-7 wasn't sharp but again its to be expected for a spread guy but threw the ball well (better then some pro-style QBs with solid footwork)

AdamsVery confident thrower with liver arm then I expected. Solid and consistent with his throws. Footwork was good for a spread guy

Brandon AllenRock solid footwork, good arm mechanics; not the most arm strength and it showed on the corner routes but had a good day throwing
