Brock Purdy famously was the last pick in the 2022 NFL Draft — he was “Mr. Irrelevant.” Since then, he’s had so much success in the NFL, teams have begun to change how they scout quarterbacks as more and more look for the next Pury.
So where would the original Purdy get drafted this year if he were eligible, now that teams seem to value the traits that make him good — experience in college, maturity, accuracy, decisiveness and mobility
I’m guessing Purdy wouldn’t get drafted in the seventh round.

But Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy is projected to get picked in the top 20 according to CBS. Call this the Purdy Effect. His success has boosted the stock of quarterbacks who are similar to him.
