Well I guess that's one answer to a polarizing offseason question we had on here.

Seems weird to have RBs included in a QB list, but what do I know?

I literally started scrolling back up the page to see the list again...And then it clicked. Well played.

It says consideration was given to the system they play in...if McDowell is rated 20th best playing for winless McNeese, I wonder what he would've been rated returning to Montana?

Maybe 3-5 range? As he was head-and-shoulders (*shrugs) above the other options in the Sac and cats games...

I doubt McDowell is anywhere near a top 25 FCS QB in 2024.

It’s the “system”, not the record or quality of the team, as I read it.

I think he will be too 25, or close.

Don’t know what question you are referring to, but looks like Hero doesn’t think he was a top 25 in 2023.

Couple things

Looks like five of the top 25 are from the big sky which is good recognition even if the mellot one is a bit off base.....

Shows the talent in our conference

Also Gonzales at number 3 from western Carolina makes me even more stoked for that game and him coming to Wagriz !!!!!

Why is Mellot "off base"? He is a terrific qb. He was a 2d team all-conference qb.

 

[THE BETCH]

Agree on Mellot. Although his strength is in running he is still a qb to contend with.

Mellott had slightly better passing efficiency than McDowell. Both were way better Sirmon in that stat.
