Our Way-Too-Early 2027 QB Preview: The Highest Ceilings, Floors, and More
Q: How many quarterbacks in this class would you take if a supplemental draft happened tomorrow?
Only two, Dante Moore and Arch Manning, with another layer of consideration for Sellers and Sorsby depending on development and fit.
Mailbag! Ohio State WR Rankings, the Rams’ Plans, a Sorsby Update, and More.

Sorsby's case centers on mental health, rehab, and extensive betting information; the discussions involve potential impact on a possible supplemental draft, with timelines indicating a June 22 deadline for paperwork and a draft likely end of July.
Talking Brendan Sorsby, Arch Manning, and the 2027 Class With Albert Breer
Q: What distinguishes Arch Manning from Sorsby in terms of development trajectory?
Arch is viewed as more mature with strong leadership, while Sorsby is more physically gifted but requires significant coaching up in accuracy, pocket presence, and decision-making; the key is how quickly Arch can translate his tools into on-field efficiency.
Talking Brendan Sorsby, Arch Manning, and the 2027 Class With Albert Breer
Q: What is the biggest risk teams face with Sorsby in the supplemental draft?
The biggest risk is the combination of potential NCAA eligibility loss, a complicated legal process, and whether teams are confident they can support him with medical, psychological, and contract structures to maximize his upside.
First-Round Pivot Points, Jordyn Tyson Stock Watch, and the McShay Mailbag
Q: If you were the Giants' GM at five, what would you do?
They would likely consider trading back to accumulate more picks, but if forced to pick, the discussion centers on whether to take an offensive tackle like Maui Noah or guard options, with a lean toward value in the trenches and potential receiver help depending on board
