Ryan Mallett

ANALYSIS
Mallett's decision was a no-brainer, particularly in light of Andrew Luck's puzzling return to Stanford. Mallett's arm strength might exceed that of any quarterback in recent memory, and he has shown the ability to make throws almost everywhere on the field. But these pluses are challenged by his almost excessive height, which both makes it difficult for him to move quickly and throw the ball accurately. Still, he's got a surprisingly fast release, particularly for someone pushing 6-7, and we think it's safe to say he'll go in the first round with a team that's fond of throwing downfield.
