And yeah, I think he's going to be a great pro. But also, if this edition of Cam Ward was in last year's draft, he's probably maybe the fourth quarterback taken off the board. You can even argue fifth, considering how Bo Nix finished last season. I think it says more about the current state of the draft class that Cam Ward is being talked about.

And because he's going to be number one or talked about as the number one pick, then of course the comparisons to Patrick Mahomes are going there. But if he's Talked about his fifth quarterback off the board. You're not hearing those comps.

It is funny, though, the discussion around Cam Ward because it would relatively be... Look, we're not talking about Shador as much because he's consensus second quarterback being taken off. And I reached out to someone in NFL scouting and I asked him, like... How do you think the draft would go if this year's Cam Ward was plopped in the last year?

He said, Caleb still goes number one, even though he was betrayed by a coaching staff. The upside is still there. Then you go Daniels, and this particular person said Cam Ward's three, and I found that surprising ahead of the likes of Drake May and Bo Nix. I understand over Bo Nix, but Drake May, I feel like in terms of measurables, in terms of like...

what an NFL front office feels safer with because Cam Ward is risky because of the footwork, because of his ability to kind of freestyle a little bit and hold the ball a little bit longer to make things happen. I think Drake May would be a safer pick, but this guy had Cam Ward in round three.

What's interesting is we did this exercise with Cam. Where would this year's Cam be drafted in last year's class? It's real scary for Shador if you take this year's Shador and you drop him in last year's class. That's a guy that's being talked about going third overall. That's probably not a first-round talent with last year's class.
