Dane Brugler: Why "Top Five Pick" Talk on Sorsby Is Getting Bastardized

from The Ken Carman Show with Anthony Lima

NFL Draft Analyst Dane Brugler joins Ken Carman and Anthony Lima to bring some much-needed context to the Brendan Sorsby hype, explaining that while the talent and physical tools are real, the tape shows a quarterback who's still raw in his reads, protections, and mechanics, making him more of a day two projection even before factoring in the gambling situation. Brugler lays out why the Browns, Jets, and Cardinals make the most sense as landing spots if Sorsby slips far enough in the supplemental draft, and breaks down how the asking price, a third-round pick versus a day three flier, changes the entire calculus for taking the swing. He also tackles the looming 2027 question, weighing whether banking on Sorsby now could actually cost a team a shot at a generational talent like Jeremiah Smith.
