Allar anyone? Draft one of the freak WRs in first round and then Allar low 1st or 2nd round?
Trigger alert: I’m not advocating it
RISING 2025 NFL DRAFT PROSPECT AT EACH POSITION
DREW ALLAR, QB, PENN STATE Penn State Nittany Lions logo
Stats: 187/259, 72.2% completion, 2,497 yards, 17 TDs, 5 INTs
The improvements across all of Drew Allar's advanced stats aren't huge, but they are significant in the aggregate.
Allar was already a statistically efficient starter in 2023 beyond his 59.5 percent completion rate, and it was impressive given Penn State's lack of weapons around him.
However, this year has combined the best of Allar's immense physical traits with a play style that reflects a high-IQ approach.
Blessed with a cannon for an arm and quality athleticism for being 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds,
Allar is experienced under center and operating traditional passing concepts. He avoids mistakes as well as anyone in the nation, boasting stellar marks in throwing turnover-worthy rate (1.1 percent) and pressure to sack rate (11.7 percent). It's not hard to see Allar having a Bo Nix-esque path in the NFL.
The difference is that Allar is even more physically gifted than Nix and a little more aggressive.
We'd like to see Allar go to an offensive scheme and surrounding cast that offers more reprieve than Penn State's, where he only has Tyler Warren to trust.
Allar should garner serious first-round consideration for his tools and penchant for sustaining a productive and efficient offense.
