2017 NFL Draft: 25 Predictions with Under a Month to Go

Tennessee's Joshua Dobbs Is This Year's Sleeper Quarterback

No quarterback prospect benefited more from the predraft process than Tennessee's Joshua Dobbs.

When evaluating the position, a quarterback's in-season performance only tells part of the story. The position is special because so much of it is played above the shoulders.

Can the young man handle the pressure of being an NFL quarterback? What type of relationship is expected to develop between the player and the coaching staff? What type of work ethic does he bring? How does he grasp concepts?

The last question is particularly important. Dobbs continues to wow teams once he's allowed to discuss pro-style concepts despite playing in a spread collegiate system.

"My senior year I was taking astronautics, propulsion and an aerodynamics class...all on the same day," he told The MMQB's Emily Kaplan. "At the same time as football season when I was leading an SEC team. I think I can handle it."

This isn't to say Dobbs lacks the physical tools or level of play necessary to be a legit quarterback prospect. He's 6'3" and 216 pounds with top-five performances among quarterbacks at the NFL combine in the 40-yard dash (4.64 seconds), vertical jump (33 inches), broad jump (10'2") and three-cone drill (6.75 seconds). He also scored 87 career touchdowns and helped lead Tennessee from a 5-7 record to 9-4 seasons and bowl games.

"Dobbs definitely has the tools to be a solid player in the league," an AFC college scouting director told NFL.com's Bucky Brooks. "He's smart, tough and athletic. Plus, he showed at the Senior Bowl that he could adapt to a pro-style offense."

No one should be surprised when the Tennessee product is drafted higher than expected—which was the middle to late rounds.

The buzz continues to grow. I guess we should now expect to see Dobbs get picked in the 2nd round.

More buzz on Dobbs rising draft stock.

Matt Miller's Scouting Notebook: Jamal Adams Rising, Updated 2-Round Mock Draft

Dobbs went through a throwing session, and a coach at the workout texted me that he "is one of my favorite [quarterbacks] in this class." Dobbs has a legitimate chance to be a top-100 pick. NFL scouts continue to rave about his football IQ, character and work ethic.

what I say? GOAT intangibles + Randall Cunningham skill set = LEGENDARY

He was very impressive at the senior bowl. No clue why he wasn't invited to the combine. He probably gets drafted on day 3 but I think he's a future starter in the NFL.

HBCU players always get my support.

The Draft should have been this weekend. Literally nothing going on besides the Masters.

 

[TUA TAGOVAILOA]

Being a 2nd-3rd round pick as a QB is like being a 4th-5th round draft pick for any other position. Nathan Peterman is getting 2nd round hype along with almost every other QB in this draft at some point has gotten mentioned in the 2nd-3rd round talk. It happens every year, teams reach on QBs..

Some kind of off-field issues kept him from the combine. But he had a good pro day as well

40-yard dash: 4.43 seconds. Bench press: 21 reps. Vertical jump: 35.5 inches. Broad jump: 10 feet, 3 inches. 3-cone drill: 7.06 seconds. 20-yard shuttle: 4.21 seconds.

If you're talking to me, I don't care about draft hype. My excitement about Dobbs is based on what he will do on the field.

You're the one that needs validation from scouts and media heads. I don't.
