Davis Webb

Big Arm.

Why not?


Matt Miller has him mocked to us in the at the end of Rnd 3 in his latest mock.

Pat Mahomes beat him out for the starter job at Texas Tech. Mahomes > Webb

I like Webb a lot, after watching his Senior Bowl performance and some of his gametape on DraftBreakdown

Too inaccurate for me. Pass.

For comparison's sake:

Webb - 61.5% career completion percentage
Mahomes - 63.5%
Watson - 67.4%
Trubisky - 67.5%

Webb's passing percentage is severely inflated by 100 screen passes per game. Actually watch his down field throwing in games, it is atrocious.

Little to no upside athletically, and accuracy is paramount in the WCO. Not a great fit for Reid's system.

Davis Webb hurt his thumb October 8th against Oregon State which affected his accuracy some during the season.

Davis had a good week at the Senior Bowl and I think the best QB during the game. Of course the top 2017 QBs did not play.

I know several draft sites have Webb being drafted in the 3rd or 4th, but I think he might go as high as the 2nd round.

Very strong arm and good size. I would be ok with KC drafting and developing.

I would prefer Patrick Mahomes if the Chiefs can get him.

Daniel Jeremiah had some things to say about Webb...

Don't sleep on Cal QB: In this week's Ask 5 article, I posed a question to five executives working for teams with established quarterbacks. I asked them to identify the quarterback they would target this offseason if they worked for a team that was desperate to upgrade the quarterback spot. One of the players mentioned -- Cal quarterback Davis Webb -- caught some readers by surprise.

Despite being selected as the MVP of the Reese's Senior Bowl last month, Webb hasn't received much hype in media circles. However, I can confirm this executive isn't the only one intrigued by the big pocket passer. In fact, I think he is likely to go in the second round and I wouldn't be totally shocked if he snuck into the back of Round 1. Two teams to keep an eye on: the Cardinals and Browns. Webb's skill set fits perfectly in Arizona's offense, and Hue Jackson's Browns staff coached him at the Senior Bowl. -- Daniel Jeremiah

He is not really a Darkhorse, but given the fact that Kizer, Mahomes, Trubisky and Watson have dominated the QB talk for this draft, I really believe that Nate Peterman enters this draft with arguably the highest floor of all these prospects.

He commanded a prostyle offense, gets the ball out quickly, is athletic enough to escape pressure and make plays with his feet, and has some nicely developed nuances that will translate to the pro game arguably better then the proverbial top four guys that have been hyped thus far.

The only real knocks on Peterman have to do with size, and the fact that he likely does not have elite arm strength. Where he compensates is with his accuracy and ability to read a defence. The Kirk Cousins comparisons are not lazy ones – he looks a lot like him. I would think that you could easily develop this guy into at worst a quality #2 pivot. His upside may not be as great as some, but he is well-equipped to compete at the next level.

Joe Flacco was the back up to Tyler Palco at Pitt before transferring to Delaware.

No to Peterman. Noodle arm.

Noodle arm? NO.

Cannon? NO.

He's got every bit a solid NFL arm. He's not going to be throwing darts like a Brett Favre, but he's no Chad Pennington. I'd put is arm fully on par with Alex Smith's.
