It’s no secret this is a weak quarterback class.

Miami’s Cam Ward and Colorado’s Shadeur Sanders currently are only two prospects with first round buzz at this point in the draft process. After three days, it feels unlikely any other names will join them.

There was a strong tier of second prospects at the Senior Bowl including Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart, Notre Dame’s Riley Leonard, and Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel, who all could make a case as potential Day 2 selections.

No one, however, stood out as a constant force.

Milroe showed off his physical traits on the practice field and grew better each day at practice. Still, the inaccuracy that plagued him in college and some late throws were noticeable as he worked with the new receiver group. He still has a chance to go in the Top 50 with the talent bundle he brings to the position, but the week was far from a home run win for him despite some nice completions to end Thursday’s practice.

Dart appeared to be the most natural thrower of the football while Leonard and Gabriel failed to make much of an impression. It was a week full of checkdowns and would-have-been sacks for the defense.

These three will have a chance to make an impression in Saturday’s Senior Bowl game, but don’t expect any of the quarterbacks after Milroe to push Top 100 talent down the board to Houston.
