  •  Jake Fromm, QB, Georgia
    Height: 6-2. Weight: 220.
    Projected 40 Time: 4.79.
    Projected Round (2020): 1-2.
    9/12/19: In 2019, Fromm has completed 25-of-34 passes for 322 yards with two touchdowns and zero interceptions.

    8/15/19: Fromm completed 67 percent of his passes in 2018 for 2,749 yards with 30 touchdowns and six interceptions. Because of an injury, Fromm was pressed into the starting lineup as a freshman in 2017, but he led Georgia all the way to the National Championship that season. Fromm was an excellent game-manager, making some clutch throws while protecting the football to allow his potent rushing attack and superb defense to control games. On the year, Fromm completed 62.2 percent of his passes for 2,615 yards with 24 touchdowns and seven interceptions.

    There is a lot to like about Fromm translating to the NFL. The important trait for any quarterback is accuracy, which Fromm has. He places his ball well, putting it in position for his receiver to make catches while avoiding putting the ball in danger. Fromm is a good decisiom-maker who protects the ball well and doesn't get careless or panic. He is a dangerous play-action passer who can come through with some clutch throws in crunch time.

    Fromm is a confident, calm, poised, and efficient pocket passer. He stands tall in the pocket and is a consistent passer, distributing the ball to all levels of the defense. He shows good timing and precision to hit his receivers through windows in coverage while leading them to produce more yards after the catch. His calm and poised approach lends to him showing field vision in the pocket, as he will move his eyes and work off his primary read. For a young quarterback, Fromm had impressive field vision at the start of his time at Georgia. While he doesn't have a cannon, Fromm will challenge defenses vertically and isn't afraid to go downfield. With his rhythm and pocket passing, Fromm would be a good fit in a west coast offense.

    We'll be good enough to not be able to get one of the top qbs in the Draft.  It'll be 2nd tier for us.

    Right now I'm seeing Jacob anywhere fromm mid 1st to mid 2nd...no, we won't be picking too 5, but do we have to? Mahomes was 15 and Jackson was 32, while Trubisky was #2.

    You need to pick a QB early. It doesnt nececarily need to be top five pick though that helps...but you need some damn luck. Something this team cant seem to find at the QB position.

    Minnesota should absolutely explore whatever it takes to get a good rookie QB early next year.  I'm a huge fan of Fromm...  Go get him.

    Fromm will be there when Minnesota picks in the first round, I think almost definitely. He's not a big armed kid however. Can he drive the football down the field? He's smart and makes quick decisions. How mobile is he? I don't know, he seems better suited as a great #2 than a franchise guy. JMO. 

    I like Utah State's Jordan Love better, especially if he can sit and learn for a year. Seems like he fits today's NFL QB better. Big arm and mobility. Nice size at 6'4", even keeled and works hard. I think he's got really good upside. But he has to work on some things for sure.

    Could the 6-foot-4, 220-pounder from Bakersfield, California, eventually become a first-round pick? Yahoo! Sports' Eric Edholm tabbed Love as one of 10 under-the-radar prospects who could be taken during the first round of the 2020 NFL draft.
    "The 6-foot-4, 220-pound passer is a smooth operator with an easy release and beautiful touch," Edholm wrote. "His poise, calm and smarts are evident when watching him operate under duress."

    The position definitely needs close examination...his demeanor seems like the opposite of Cousins...plus he's got a lot of big game experience already...so, no ball shrinkage when the game is on the line...

    Shrinkage...should be a new prospect metric...bubble butt, cannon arm, limited to no shrinkage ™ when the game is on the line...

    Fromm reminds me of Will Grier, who although had a nice college career seems to be struggling thus far in the pros. Pretty early yet on Grier but not glowing endorsements so far.

    Fromm is an intelligent QB, he has a sufficient arm for the NFL, but he’s doesn’t have a rocket like Fields. I’d like the Vikings to take a chance on him in the mid/late first... but maybe that’s the homer in me talking.

    No shrinkage.

    • Georgia junior QB Jake Fromm earned his fourth career win versus an AP top-10 opponent by taking down Notre Dame on Saturday.Fact courtesy of The Athletic's Jason Starrett, Fromm is now in elite territory. His four wins against top-10 opponents is the most by any QB in Georgia history, a group that includes Quincy Carter, Matthew Stafford, and Aaron Murray in the past two decades. Fromm (6'2/220) is not the flashiest QB in the country, but he has consistently gotten the job done for Georgia and is again positioning the Bulldogs for a CFP run. Georgia have a bye this week before taking on Tennessee on Oct. 5.

    Jake Fromm is a beacon of consistency in a sport that doesn’t lend itself to any. There is an unusual pleasure to be taken in watching a college quarterback who almost always makes the right throw at the right time to the right location. 21-year old kids don’t do much of anything right, let alone play quarterback at a high level in the SEC. Maybe Fromm’s highlight reel is shorter and not as inspiring as many other top quarterbacks, but his folly files are not nearly as lengthy or embarrassing, either. 
    For the fourth time in three seasons, Fromm steered Georgia to a win versus an opponent ranked in the AP Top-10. Those four wins are against No.4 Auburn and No.2 Oklahoma in 2017, No.9 Florida in 2018, and now No.7 Notre Dame in 2019. Fromm completed 20-of-26 passes for 187 yards and a touchdown to beat the Fighting Irish — a respectable, but modest stat line produced in part by a conservative game plan in the first half. Unexciting stat line be damned, Fromm showed everything that would suggest he is a capable NFL quarterback against Notre Dame.

    Aside from the throw to Cager, Fromm had just one throw in the first half that was not off of an RPO, a screen, or a flat-route thrown off play-action. The lone throw from a real passing concept came on a 3rd-and-6 that showcased Fromm’s veteran awareness and confidence.

    Fromm didn’t flinch against the sim pressure. Georgia had a variation of “Kelly Mesh” called and Fromm knew that the field-side cornerback could be exploited by the conflict of the flat player and the shallow crosser cutting from right to left. Upon receiving the snap, Fromm held his eyes and shoulders to the left for as long as possible so as to force the cornerback to respect the receiver in the flat. Fromm then suddenly turned and fired at the shallow crosser, hitting his target right in the midpoint between the two defenders. It’s not an exciting play, but it’s one that moves the chains. 
    In addition to the savvy to make this play work, the quick, smooth nature of Fromm’s process is on full display. No quarterback in the class has as seamless a process between snap to read to throw as Fromm. There is no wasted time in his decision making or trigger, nor is there any wasted movement in his throwing motion. Fromm does everything the way it would be written in a QB textbook.

    Walterfootball loves from also, has him going #12 to Tennessee. I think they are keeping track of your posts, Barr. :)

    IMO, if Minnesota wants a real QB prospect next year (and I think they definitely do) a guy like Jacob Eason might be there with their 1st round pick. But next year's draft has a ton of prospects from rounds 2-4 that Minnesota can pounce on, at least that's how I'm reading it via draft sites.
