| 0:00.0 | Turning our attention to the NFL draft. We're talking quarterbacks right now with |
| 0:07.7 | Emery Hunt. Welcome to Fantasy Football today in 5. Emery Hunt dropped such great knowledge about |
| 0:13.5 | the prospects last year. We thought, hey, let's do it again. Follow him on Twitter at F ball |
| 0:18.0 | game plan. You can see him on CBS Sports HQ and you can hear them on FFTN5 for the next several weeks. |
| 0:24.6 | Emery, let's talk about the quarterback class in general. |
| 0:26.9 | Not a great reputation for this class going in. |
| 0:30.0 | How do you see this QB class? |
| 0:32.1 | You know, it's interesting. |
| 0:33.0 | You got to spin the perspective this way in terms of it's a great year to find a QB2 on your roster |
| 0:40.8 | to upgrade your backup quarterback with a guy that can be a bridge quarterback to someone |
| 0:45.6 | you think may be better. |
| 0:47.0 | So I like the depth here as far as talented, improve the backup quarterback situation in the NFL |
| 0:52.4 | because we've seen over the course of the last two years, you better have two decent quarterbacks otherwise you're in trouble. Okay, now that is a glass half full approach. I love it. I love it. Okay. So we're going to talk about your top three quarterbacks in this class. Malik Willis from Liberty is number one. Yeah, I'm a big fan of the traits and the tools. |
| 1:11.2 | If you talk about prospect, Malik Willis to me is the number one prospect at the position. He has the arm strength. He has the speed, mobility, and the upside. He's one of those guys you can get in, groom, and you put him around better talent. It should yield better results. So to me, he was a clear cut number one way back in the summer, |
| 1:28.6 | and he has held true to that form right now. |
| 1:31.5 | Who does he compare to in the NFL? |
| 1:34.1 | You know, that's a great question, because I've been struggling to try to find a cop for him. |
| 1:37.4 | I would say this way. He's probably more along the lines of a more explosive version of Jalen Hertz. |
| 1:43.8 | Someone that's built the same way as a faster runner, |
| 1:47.4 | has a stronger arm, but play the same game. So I would say a more explosive version of what the |
| 1:52.4 | Eagles have in Jailen Hertz. How would you compare him to Trey Lance a year ago in terms of readiness, |
| 1:57.6 | in terms of upside traits, all that stuff with Tray Lance, Malik Willis and Lance. |
