The past two NFL Drafts featured marquee quarterback cla ses, and it's time to begin meticulously a se sing how they're playing at the profe sional level, as they represent part of the new era at the game's most critical position.A grand total of seven quarterbacks selected in the past two cla ses saw considerable playing time during a wild Week 1, and some of the performances weren't exactly as expected.Let's dive deep into the individual efforts of each quarterback and a sign a grade on a per-snap basis, taking every individual aspect of their performance into account. At least 10 attempts were needed to qualify for this debut piece, which will come out weekly. JAC QB #16 Best Throws:While gliding right in the first quarter, Lawrence found an open down the sideline and lofted the ball up and over the underneath cornerback. The throw arrived
Tanner Pearson Jersey just before the safety ranged from the deep middle.He opened the second quarter with a strike down the numbers to for 27 yards on a drop back in which he stepped into the pocket but was still pre sured before releasing the ball.Late in the third, Lawrence rifled a slant through the tiniest window to for what amounted to a 15-yard gain. A few plays later, off play-action, Lawrence found Chark streaking down the sideline for a 41-yard score. While the receiver was open, the ball had to have serious velocity on it to arrive before the safety got there. It did.Late in the game, Lawrence ripped a nice post route to just beyond a diving defender.Worst Throws:Lawrence's second pa s of his career should've been an easy completion on a short out route to Chark, but the low and outside throw
Jonny Brodzinski Men Jersey fell incomplete.After escaping a would-be sack from his right, Lawrence drifted left out of the pocket in the second quarter. Downfield stood a wide open , but Lawrence's hurried throw sailed over the wideout's head, arrived too far inside, and was ultimately intercepted by .On the next drive, Lawrence didn't locate the boundary cornerback playing zone on a down-the-numbers throw and was picked again. Lawrence left yards on the field on a late second-quarter misfire to an open O'Shaughne sy on a short stick route.With under a minute to go in the third, Chark got free down the sideline for what could've been a long touchdown had the throw been on target. It was high and wide and sailed out of bounds.His third interception must have been a miscommunication because it was thrown directly to linebacker . Even if cut acro s the field instead of toward the post, it would've been a bad decision for Lawrence to release the football.Summary:Lawrence's debut was ugly. Close to an absolute nightmare. All afternoon, Lawrence struggled with accuracy, even on easy throws, and did not handle pre sure -- by making smart decisions while under dure s -- for most of the outing. In fairne s, he was pre sured frequently and seemed to abandon some pockets because he was thinking of the pa s rush instead of surveying downfield.Grade: D+Season Grade: D+ NYJ QB #2 Best Throws:Early in the second, Wilson found on a deep over route, and the ball arrived right before the safety flew downhill to disrupt the pa s
Marcel Dionne Women Jersey . The play gained 34 yards. Rhythm and ball placement.In the third, off play-action, Wilson again found Davis on a well-timed in-breaking route for 20 yards through a relatively small pa sing window. His long touchdown to Davis wasn't a difficult throw -- Davis was completely wide open -- but Wilson's escape from the pocket was impre sive.Late in the fourth, he fit the ball in over the middle to for 15 yards. He later hit Berrios on a cro ser down the field while getting hit.The 40-yard gain to late in the game was a thing of beauty. Wilson emphatically slid forward in the pocket and released the ball without resetting his feet to find the open receiver down the sideline.Worst Throws:Panthers linebacker Shaq Thompson intercepted Wilson on seam-throw attempt that he didn't put enough air under.Summary:Wilson came on strong late in the game, which was an encouraging sign. But the biggest takeaway was Wilson's escapability and how it can be a ble sing and curse for him, especially early in his career. He was able to miraculously extend some plays but took six sacks and fumbled on one of those plays.Grade: C+Season Grade: C+ NE QB #10 Best Throws:With under five minutes to go in the half, Jones ripped a seam throw to up and over a pair of linebackers and in front of the safety who arrived a split second after the ball hit the receiver in his mitts.On the same drive, he found Agholor in tight running a jerk route from the
Nick Shore Men Jersey slot for a touchdown. While not a particularly difficult throw, Jones did take a lick from an inside blitzer who ran free.With a defender barreling down on him in the third, Jones lofted a 21-yard pa s to Agholor who sat open down the left sideline.Jones' finest throw of the day came via beautiful touch on a wheel route to in the third quarter.Worst Throws:This wasn't a contest that featured many egregiously bad throws from Jones, thanks in large part to New England's rather conservative pa sing plan that featured a multitude of short throws to running backs and tight ends.However, he did have ball-placement i sues on what should've been another easy completion to on a rollout to the right on a critical third down inside the red zone in fourth quarter with the trailing by four. The to s was low and away and fell incomplete.Summary: Jones operated Josh McDaniels' game plan soundly. It was created to get the ball out of Jones hands in a hurry, and he mostly did that throughout, working the flats and checking it down to targets out of the backfield or receivers running short cro sers. There were a select few solid throws downfield. Jones did have five of his pa ses broken up, which came on pa ses that were either forced or a tick late to their intended target. Grade: BSeason Grade: B CIN QB #9 Best Throws:Late in the second, Burrow fit an out route to through extremely tight coverage right before the wideout ran out of bounds.His 50-yard touchdown to with under a minute to go in the half was perfectly placed over
Martin Frk Jersey the rookie receiver's shoulder in stride.Worst Throws:Burrow mi sed high and wide on an easy throw into the flat on his second to s of the game.Early in the third, Burrow mi sed a wide open on a bootleg roll out that would've been a touchdown. The throw was low and outside.Summary: Burrow was effective in the RPO game and took what the defense gave him for
