High school senior. NFL Draft and general NFL analyst for NFL Spin Zone. Quarterbacks are my self-proclaimed expertise.
By now, anyone that has visited the site more than once or knows me well knows that quarterbacks are my niche. They’re infinitely more interesting than any other position; quarterback is the greatest position in all of sports. I, being 17 years old and having never seen college games of some of these players I…
The NFL Draft is now an integral part of the NFL season for fans as it has become a nationally televised and highly publicized event. As would be expected, the incoming rookie quarterbacks are the most speculated group of each class due to their critical role in the success of a team (and how sad/desperate a handful…
Flashback, it’s 2012. The San Francisco 49ers offense is struggling and they have turned to a second year player out of Nevada to take over the offense.

At just 34 years old (soon to be 35), Kyle Shanahan has already established himself as one of the most efficient and innovative offensive coordinator in the NFL. The young mind got his first coordinator gig in Houston in 2008. There, Shanahan worked under former Texans head coach and current Ravens offensive coordinator Gary Kubiak….
Both on and off the field, Jameis Winston has been criticized quite heavily, as of late. Off the field, youthful mistakes and criminal allegations surround Winston. On the field, many analysts fear that he has regressed from his 2013 form. The two entities are related and the off-field troubles, to a degree, make sense of Winston’s on-field…
Cam Newton has been under the media’s microscope since his days at the University of Florida. At the time, there was good reason for it. He had stolen a laptop, leading him to be kicked out of the university. Despite the adversity, Newton dominated the junior college circuit, then transferred to Auburn and won the…
