Young and Stroud are certainly more celebrated, but I am not convinced either is any better than Tune. Both will be overdrafted but at the #1 pick, you have to have a guaranteed pro bowler. QB is a really hard position to evaluate.
For my money, Tune is the value pick of the draft. Tune had off season coaching from Jordan Palmer and the Manning Camp. Going to the right team and with proper QB coaching, Tune may exceed Young and Stroud in performance.
Tune is not anywhere near being as good as those two….IYO he is as good as last year’s Heisman winner who plays in the SEC and possible Heisman winner this year who plays in the Big 10.
I hope Tune gets drafted and has a chance to learn and eventually get some run in the NFL.
But he is not on the same level as those guys you mentioned.
Now if you want to say he is comparable to Will Levis then I might agree with you.
Tune might impress someone enough to get drafted in the later rounds. If not he’ll get pick of the litter as an UDFA. I think he has a decent chance to at least make a practice squad,
You think these are unrelated? Not saying I agree with the OP, but I can easily see Josh Allen as a comp. He turned out pretty good - and was less accomplished in college.
Wow. Tap the breaks people. Earlier this year, he was a nice guy who just wasn’t very good. Y’all wanted to see what #2 can do. Now, not only is he on par with last year’s Heisman winner, he’s on par with arguably the best QB in the NFL.
I like Tune and I think he will get drafted. But slow your roll.
#3 is not as good as those two. SEC > AAC (by a lot) I think he needs to work on his pocket presence. He tends to panic when it breaks down. While I hope he gets drafted, I don’t think he will.
Josh Allen was a late attention grabber who didn’t pickup steam until the second part of his last year, just like Tom Savage. Where they landed in the draft is inconsequential to the main point.
The parallels are there. He may not have the wild arm strength like Allen, but he’s a true competitor that has become really efficient. That has winner written all over it.
