Simms Top 40 QB Countdown #35-31: "The Young & The Reckless"

About this episode

(0:00) Ben Roethlisberger was underrated, even if he didn't know his grip.

(4:30) Behind the Curtain: What changed in this year's Top 40 process?

(7:30) #35 Jameis Winston: "Arguably the best big-play backup QB in the NFL. But there’s a DGAF aspect that you can’t completely trust.”

(16:10) #34 Bryce Young: "Great natural feel for the QB position. But there are too many games where he’s overwhelmed, and that scares me.”

(27:15) #33 Sam Darnold: “He still has starting-caliber traits, especially his quick release. But he’s been in bad situations that expose his mechanical flaws.”

(24:40) #32 Anthony Richardson: “His skillset alone makes defenses change the way they play. Sky’s the limit. But we obviously need to see him play more.”

(44:30) #31 Ryan Tannehill: “He can’t do the above-and-beyond anymore. But if you give him a few pieces, he can still get it done, especially downfield.”

(54:35) “What’s My Grip?”: After failing Monday, can Chris go 5-for-5 today?

(1:01:35) Homies react: Why is Kenny Pickett over Gardner Minshew? And why didn't Aidan O'Connell make the Top 40?
