Deshaun I almost put in "at his level"So you think he doesn't have it easier than at least most if not all of the QB's in the league? I'm not following that first sentence.
Nvm. I see what you're saying.
Personally if I'm drafting I'd absolutely take everyone in your around his level plus:
Deshaun Watson assuming he doesn't get massages
Daniel Jones
Burrow despite the slow start and its not close
Lawrence you have in both
Debateable:
Geno
Pickett
CJ Stroud
Bryce Young (probably not)
Daniel Jones LMAO. I spent last weekend in NYC and I promise you not one Giants fan would take Jones over Purdy. They know they'll never win with him at QB.
Burrow...maybe. He's certainly shown he can be a difference maker, but has shown he can be terrible. So I'll give you that one.
Lawrence...meh.
Even with those decisions, you're still around #10.
Geno is not debatable.
Pickett is not debatable.
Stroud...maybe could be debatable eventually, he has better tools but hasn't shown anything yet.
Bryce Young LMAO, we'll see but definitely not right now.
I've watched every game with Purdy and he started out just being what you think he is, complete and utter game manager. But the last half of the games he's started to make throws that were "OK, I see you Brock". Some guy named Joe Montana said he watches his film and the guy just doesn't make bad decisions.
Look at this play vs the Puddle Chickens...(I get that it's incomplete, but that has nothing to do with Purdy):
That is not a "system QB" play. He has enough mobility that he can extend plays and get the extra couple first downs a game that really frustrate a defense.
On top of that, his throws are usually quick, on the spot (hitting the receiver in stride so he can get the YAC) and he reads the defense so freaking quick.
Cognition test puts Brock Purdy on par with star NFL QBs
Pre-draft testing doesn’t tell the whole story of a player’s trajectory. Neither do 8 NFL starts. Put them together though, and things get interesting.

Or this dime to Deebo vs the GIants:
Look at this throw vs Pat Peterson (who by the way said he was going to get multiple picks on him and ended up giving up 2 TDs instead):
