Thoughts? Could be a steal

Draft him. Suspect he could be one of the outlier QBs I see occasionally that meet all the blue chip criteria but end up being a 73 or 74 (his talent round makes me think that), but he's 21 years old which means he will have plenty of time to develop into your franchise QB. Well, well worth a punt at that projected round.

Yeah if they're do not draft at that point anyway, I wouldn't worry too much about going to the effort of putting this stuff in.

You'll see different names one week and then different names the next, and those two lists will alternate every week for me. (They'll all be available during the draft.) I also noticed this for Undrafted DT's, I think it only happens for people Undrafted but I found this interesting. And for my current Kicker class, it shows 2 one week, and 0 the next., quarterbacks as well, where initially there were only 6 quarterbacks (weak class) to 25 quarterbacks the next week. Also is there anyway to get rid of the tooltips in the excel document? I drag em up to the blank area in the draft status bar so it bugs me the least but I really hate seeing it block my view on excel in some areas. I personally find it to be a nuisance, but if there isn't a way for me to turn it off then no worries because I'm sure it helps other people.

Yeah UDFAs are usually in two separate groups the cycle in and out, e.g. week 1, group 1 will display; week 2, group 2 will display; week 3, back to group 1 etc. Also in the draft itself, you might find that a UDFA you like isn't even available to select since only a limited number of UDFAs will display on the draft board. Really annoying. For this reason, I don't recommend scouting UDFAs unless you have loads of points to spare.

Regarding the tooltips in v3.2, yeah they get on my wick as well. Does anybody else find them annoying or does anyone think they're useful? I might get rid of them again for the next version.
