Gaschler's Draft Analysis

Which Sophomores are Poised for a Breakout Season? Nick Gaschler Every year you see a young player break out and go to the Pro Bowl or become a star on their team. Last year it was Jared Goff and William Jackson. The year before it was Melvin Gordon. These players have become stars and now we look towards the next group of Sophomores ready to break out so without further ado, let’s get into it. Mitchell Trubisky-QB-Chicago Bears The kid wasn’t bad in 2017, but was definitely overlooked due to a lack of playmakers on offense. A 59.4 completion percentage, about 2,200 yards and 7 touchdowns isn’t much, but with new playmakers in Allen Robinson, Taylor Gabriel, and Anthony Miller, Trubisky should improve a lot. This will make the Bears offense a lot better and should put Trubisky in the spotlight. Dalvin Cook-RB-Minnesota Vikings The talented runner got off to a fast start in 2017 before tearing his ACL. In 2018, if he’s back healthy he could really end up being a top runn...

Passing to the Torch: 6 College QB's Who Are About to be the Next Big Thing Nick Gaschler With the departure of great college quarterbacks in recent memory for the NFL, I take a look at 6 college quarterbacks that will dominate the college scenes for the next 1-3 years. Jake Fromm-Georgia Fromm and Bama’s Tua Tagovailoa will be dueling in the college scene for the foreseeable future and it could be either quarterback being great at one time. Fromm has a lot of great skill sets that can carry Georgia to the championship and eventually and NFL franchise. Fromm is a playmaker and just the thing the CFB needs. Tua Tagovailoa-Alabama The dynamic lefty is sure to be the next great mobile/passing QB in college football. A small sample of his skill set was shown in the 2018 National Championship and in 2018, there is certainly more that Tua will do in 2018. He’ll be a new offensive force in the SEC and should be a top pick in a couple years. JT Daniels-USC Here is ano...

2019 Draft RB Overview Nick Gaschler The 2019 RB class is definitely a step down from the 2018 and 2017 classes, but several players in this class have the opportunity to be real superstars in the NFL. Let’s get into it! The Top Guys Bryce Love-Stanford It’s a straight up tie between two of the best runners in College Football. Bryce and Rodney Anderson sit atop this class and I think they both have great potential. Love is a great RB prospect as he has good speed, he has good vision, and he has the ability to get into the open-field often. However, his receiving game is obviously lacking and he doesn’t cut much. He also tends to get caught behind the line of scrimmage a lot as well. Rodney Anderson-Oklahoma In terms of rankings, Anderson is very, very close to passing Bryce Love. Anderson has the ability to be very elusive as he can squeeze through holes and breaks free easily. He’s quick and explosive and he is able to be a receiving threat in the NFL....

2019 NFL Draft QB Overview Nick Gaschler People are calling the QB Class this year terrible, but I disagree severely. Although the 2018 QB Class was legendary, the 2019 QB Class should live up past the hype at this point as I see a couple franchise type QB’s The Top Guys Drew Lock-Mizzou Lock is the top QB in this class. He has his issues, but overall, Lock has a lot of traits that are too advanced to pass up and I feel he could end up being the number one player selected next year. He has the prototypical size and arm and plays well in his system. However, his deep accuracy is concerning and some of his work in the pocket can be confusing, but overall, Lock has a lot of upside. In terms of comparisons to recent draftees, I’d say Josh Allen is closest to him without the decision making and major accuracy issues. Jarrett Stidham-Auburn This early after my evaluations, I don’t know whether to rank Stidham in this tier or Herbert, but I’m feeling Stidham ...
