Cameron Ward - QB - Washington State
Ward is one of my favorite QB prospects. And yes, I'm a little biased here, since we went to the same high school. Still, I'm not the only person who sees Ward as a future NFL talent. He's been getting a lot of hype.
Ward will probably play one more year in college before he goes pro, since he only has one year at FBS under his belt after starting his college career at FCS Incarnate Word.
In his first year at Wazzu, Ward was 298-for-465 for 3,094 yards with 23 touchdowns and eight interceptions. He needs to work some on accuracy, but he's got an arm that can make any throw.
Jake Haener - QB - Fresno State
We've got us a QB battle in this one, y'all!
Haener, who played one year at Washington before coming to Fresno State, appeared in nine games this year. He completed 72.6% of his passes with 18 touchdowns and three picks.
I don't think Haener has the NFL upside of Ward, but he should be a day-three pick who'll have a shot to stick as a backup.
Robert Ferrel - WR - Washington State
Like Cameron Ward, Ferrel came over from Incarnate Word, following Ward and former UIW head coach Eric Morris, who spent this year as Wazzu's offensive coordinator before recently taking the head coaching job at North Texas.
Ferrel had 46 catches for 517 yards and four touchdowns this season. He's an intriguing prospect, since he had one good year of production in his only FBS campaign.
