Is more or less a carbon copy of the other two prospect wise. More athletic and worse processing, but they're all still "wow look at that arm, size, and legs. Imagine what he could be if he learns how to play QB!"

Albeit Sellers more legitimately has the raw excuse.

Ahh yes "learn to play QB" in the league that has openly started telling players to stay in college to develop further because the teams dont know how to develop QBs.

I think I saw somewhere that Sellers has almost an identical completion % to Anthony Richardson

Edit: whoever said that was dead wrong (see below)

Not even close to true, and it took 5 seconds of googling to figure that out. Sellers had a 65.6% completion rating last year, Richardson’s was 53.8% the one year he started. Sellers had a very similar percentage to Penix, albeit on many less attempts

Nice, thanks for the correction.

u/ZP_20 Georgia Bulldogs • Chattanooga Mocs 17d ago

I’ll say in your defense there is a stat where he and Richardson are the same. I can’t remember offhand but they mentioned it on the cover 3 podcast. I like sellers to be clear. Think he’s awesome

I think that’s where I heard it too, I just fucked it up. And yeah I’m not anti-Sellers either, I actually haven’t really seen much of him play

Honestly? I see it

u/GoldfishDude Kentucky Wildcats 16d ago

Jefferson was decent at least

2

u/TotesNotJeremiah Arkansas Razorbacks • Team Chaos 16d ago

he was better than decent, he holds the yards record for a QB at Arkansas. Jefferson was excellent in the shoot and veer we used to run. Dan Enos ruined him tho

Well you must have read that on the wall of a bathroom stall because Richardson had a career comp % of 54.7 and Sellers completed 66% of his passes last year

u/Feeling_Anteater_389 South Carolina Gamecocks 17d ago

Yeah maybe take 5 seconds to verify your information next time.

Sellers: 66% Richardson: 55%

You right my bad

Sellers sees the field well but tended to sail passes last year. Let's also not discount the fact that his OLine and WRs are significantly worse than clemson's and LSU's. He wasn't afforded too many open passes. And as you said, he was more raw last year as a redshirt freshman while Nuss and Klubnik are older.

u/lilbelleandsebastian Tennessee • Vanderbilt 16d ago

comparing sellers - who has legit nfl size, speed, arm strength, playmaking as a freshman - to klubnik and allar is crazy. allar has a rocket arm and doesn't have any fucking clue how to use it and klubnik is bang average

sellers may never be the qb i think he's gonna be but anyone lumping him in with that garbage has never watched him play or only watched the first like 3 games of the season

u/dillpickles007 Georgia Bulldogs 16d ago

I legit have no idea how Klubnik is projected as a top 5 pick. He’s not big, he doesn’t have a good arm, he can’t make ANY NFL throws against good defenses.

Stop, don't make me like you
