"So you're all on Bridgewater?!" Best QB in the class, by far. Not to knock Carr, but Bridgewater is far more mentally advanced and mature than the others.

When I put together my scouting reports, I find and identify strengths and weaknesses in each prospect.
Needless to say, it was much harder to identify weaknesses for Bridgewater than it was to find strengths for Carr.

I think Carr has a lot of strengths and I like him as a prospect a lot, but he isn't Bridgewater.

I don't remember where I read it now, but I read that not as many NFL scouts have Bridgewater as highly rated as the draft community does. NFL teams are concerned about his size in particular. We'll see how true that is.

I think he is fairly overrated. I still question his size/frame, deep ball accuracy, decision making, and composure.
I have to do an article of top 5 overrated QBs, and honestly I may have Bridgewater in there.
Dont get me wrong, he has a ton of potential, but so has many other QBs that have had potential had not worked out, and I see other NFL QB material in the draft.
Excited to see what Garoppolo does at Senior bowl and combine. Him, Carr, and Bortles are my favorite QB prospects.

We'll see how true that is. Hasn't put up killer stats (by some standards), so he's been dropping. He's actually a slightly better player than last year, which makes it odd that he's dropping. Media/teams just have to try to dethrone the rightful king because they are bored.

Bridgewater plays in a very NFL-like system and dominates, by my standards. Drops from his WRs and a poor OL aren't helping him at all, yet he's thrown a minuscule four interceptions. The mental aspects of his game are more advanced than anyone else in this class. He blazes through reads and finds the open WR. If not completely open, he understands how to throw WRs open and create space for them. Best QB in this class by quite a bit, even though I have Carr pinned as a top 10 pick.

When it comes to guys like Teddy Bridgewater, who clearly aren't on elite teams, you have to try and imagine what they would do on a Florida State, Auburn, or Alabama. In my opinion, if he's put on one of those teams, we aren't worried about his size.
That being said, the road isn't going to get any easier for teddy Bridgewater, and I think he understands that. He won't be at the Senior Bowl, and likely won't throw at the Combine either, which means his only chance to throw for scouts will be at his pro day. While guys like Derek Carr and Jimmy Garoppolo (assuming he gets an invite) are given the chance to showcase their skills against vanilla defenses at the Senior Bowl, Bridgewater will be sitting at home.

1) Blake Bortles 2) Teddy Bridgewater 3) Brett Hundley 4) Derek Carr 5) Johnny Manziel 6) Tajh Boyd 7) A.J McCarron 8) Zach Mettenberger 9) Jimmy Garoppolo 10) David Fales
Unlike some I am not all in on Bridgewater, which makes this QB class up for grabs. I think Bortles has been impressive all year, and a good bowl game will put him over the top. On the field I see everything I need to see from an elite QB. Size and speed are both there. Makes his progressions and senses pressure well. He doesn't have the biggest arm in the draft but it's good enough to get things done. Only thing that worries me is he takes basically every snap out of the shotgun but I think that's something he can overcome.
Edit: As far as problems concerning Bridgewater, I think the big issue that's going to be brought up is his hand size. Something very minuscule that scouts seem to find really important. Personally I think Bridgewater tries to force the ball into coverage a bit too much and doesn't do as good of a job leading his receivers into his throws as he could. Forcing passes into coverage is a good and bad thing. I like that he's confident in his ability to make the throws but sometimes he needs to know when to not make those passes.

Been watching a lot of Logan Thomas and David Fales lately. I really like both. Thomas still being scrutinized for poor 2012 season. Fales overshadowed by losing his No.1 WR and having a new OC w/ a diff. style of offense.
