Steven Ridley’s 2018 NFL Mock Draft

With the twenty-second overall pick in the 2018 Steven Ridley NFL Mock Draft, the Denver Broncos select:

Mason Rudolph; Quarteback from Oklahoma State University.

Historically speaking, John Elway loves big armed Quarterbacks. However, attempting to nab this year’s one in Josh Allen was simply too difficult and expensive to achieve. Instead, Elway opts for something else in the mold of Mason Rudolph, a prototypical, efficient passer who can command an offense. While Case Keenum is a good term answer, he is but a short term answer. A long term solution will be needed. Rudolph does need to work on his throwing mechanics and velocity as both have the potential to grow and his on field diagnosis still needs work but he does have the leadership skills, pre snap recognition and reads that Elway does like in his Quarterbacks. He might not be ready in 2018 but 2019 will be big for Rudolph.

A Canadian loving gamer and analytical American Football fan; Steven has turned to the Black 'n Gold since the days of seeing Troy Amuna Polamalu way back in 2008. Since then, he has been getting more engaged with the sport. In addition of studying the aspects of the game, college prospect scouting is one of his favorite pastimes.

    strength in the world means very little if your accuracy is not very good. Knowing this however is why Josh Allen is the number one pick as Dorsey is using 2018 as a redshirt year for Allen to learn the do’s and do not’s of the NFL. Once 2019 is here is where Dorsey and the Browns will hopefully see the fruition of a year’s worth of experience.

    IF – AND IT’S A BIG “IF” – Mason Rudolph has a big day versus Baltimore the Steelers may have found theit franchise QB and it isn’t KP8. Mason’s been a hard luck guy since he was deafted and Ben was “insulted.” Ben is no rocket scientist but his physical gifts, history and hope combined to make Rudolph an afterthought for years.. Staing ready to play plus maturity may have combined to make MASON THE successor to Ben the Steelers truly need. If so, it settles a big question for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
