Am I the only one who thinks this guy is massively overrated? His entire ranking is based upon how he performs in camps and seems to totally ignore how he does when it matters in 11 on 11. His stats last year were pretty miserable and last night he has gotten off to another invigorating start to this year with a 5 for 17, 40 yards and an INT performance. The usual knock on his game performances are his team sucks, but in reality many top QBs deal with the same issue yet still perform. It's not like they are all throwing to DI caliber WRs or have several OL going to DI schools.

Just throwing it out there. I know a guy who used to work for scout and Driskel isn't even in his Top 10 QBs for this year. Said pretty much the same thing.

I think he had the elite 11 won before he even got there.

No one else had a chance.

I believe he is a little overrated. He can run and has good arm strength. His game management skills are not there yet. I beleive that he doesn't make the smart plays that you need from your qb. He could essentially run it every single time to make plays for his team, but does not. This school is in the middle of an upper middle class neighborhood and UCF. But, I beleive that they bus kids in from lower income neighborhoods to deversify the school. There is a lot of talent in the area so don't believe the excuses that his team sucks. His coach may suck. I watched the game against edgewater. He did not look like a top tier QB.
