  • Rapid Fire: Riley Leonard, Steve Angeli, Marist Liufau, NFL Draft Quarterbacks, Chris Ballard Goes Off

    Rapid Fire: Riley Leonard, Steve Angeli, Marist Liufau, NFL Draft Quarterbacks, Chris Ballard Goes Off
    May 1 2024
    Rapid Fire topics include: * Thoughts on Steve Angeli's potential floor and ceiling if he were to be Notre Dame's starting quarterback this season. * A record six quarterbacks were drafted in the first 12 picks of the draft. On a scale of 1 to 10...How confident are we that Riley Leonard will go in the top 12 of next year’s draft? * The hit rate on NFL quarterbacks drafted in the first round is 46%. A hit is defined by a player signing a second contract with the team that drafted him. Which of the QBs picked in the first round is most likely be a hit and which is the most likely miss? * Fill-in the blank...Michael Mayer should feel BLANK that the Raiders drafted former Georgia tight end Brock Bowers with the 13th overall pick in the draft. * The Indianapolis Colts drafted former Texas receiver Adonai Mitchell in the second round last week. Mitchell was a potential first round pick who slid into the second round amid reports that cited anonymous sources that he interviewed poorly and was a difficult player to assess. Colts General Manager Chris Ballard wasn’t happy about it. We hear his comments and react. * Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that according to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport former South Carolina quarterback Spencer Rattler’s slide from possible second round pick to the fifth round may have been because some teams didn’t like the way Rattler acted when he was featured on Netflix's QB1 reality series in 2018 when he was in high school. * Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that the NFL Today pregame show on CBS has replaced Phil Simms and Boomer Esiason with Matt Ryan. * Meanwhile, recently retired Eagles center Jason Kelce is reportedly going to join ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown show. Rate that move on a scale of 1 to 10.
