I'd say 15 or 16. Getting to be a good spot to sit tight and take Carson Wentz.

I think they will have to make a move up to get Wentz. Every team that likes him and sits behind St. Louis will be trying to move up to get him. They can't sit and wait on a guy like Wentz if they really like him.

I really wish stats were kept on QBs completion %s on specific passes like the NFL does. Be curious to know the yardage the ball is in the air break down for Cook.

Or Connor Cook and his low completion percentage. ;)

Interesting question.....
had me scanning google....
From naked eye, it looks like a guy like Hackenberg throws more passes downfield than every QB in the top 5. Plus a lot of Cook passes, he seems to try and put some touch on it...Just some B1G observations....

Once it all started to click for Cook, Michigan State's offense reached a new level. He trusted himself and his receivers, and he looked great slinging the ball down the field or rocketing it into tight spaces.
real interesting take here....

Cook has strengths to his game that make him an early-round candidate. As stated above, Cook has the ability to make all the throws in the NFL. He has a quality arm, and there are times where he makes absolutely beautiful passes into tight windows to beat good coverage and throw his receiver open. Perhaps the quality that teams will like the most is Cook has been phenomenal while being blitzed, and that is a very rare trait for a college quarterback.

Cook has the size, weight, mechanics and pro-style experience that scouts look for. At times, he flashes mobility and the athleticism to avoid rushers or pick up yards on the ground. However, Cook has stated he doesn't like to run and only will do it if he has to. There are reports that he runs a very fast 40-yard dash.

There also are a lot of negatives to Cook's game. While he lacks instincts and feel as a passer, his biggest problem is inaccuracy. Cook is not an accurate passer, and that can be seen in his completion percentage. In the vast majority of games, Cook misses open receivers on short to intermediate passes that are easy completions. With his wild tosses, sustaining drives and avoiding interceptions could be a big problem for him in the NFL. Some team sources have said that they can not get excited about Cook because he is just too inaccurate.

I bet he (G. Peshek) does a piece for 2016 QB's coming out later....but it should give you what you're looking for Athos...
oh boy, from a hated site...

One of my favorite college prospects I have seen develop since 2013, Cook showcases great size, arm strength with a quick release, decent mobility (sneaky athleticism), and good footwork in the pocket. His accuracy from within the pocket is impressive. He is adept at reading the entire field and making all NFL level throws, and showing off pinpoint accuracy in tight windows with some beautiful over-the-top throws reminiscent of snowflakes falling from the sky.

happy hunting....the top 6 QB's are really worth our time... I don't have to see this game on Sunday in Seattle to tell me this. If we want to compete in the NFC West, it's mandatory....

if we dont draft a QB in first round, i'm thinking about another kind of contract altogether for Fisher:censored:
