Dart was a very productive QB in the SEC. Bigger, stronger arm, more athletic than Bryce Young and can actually consistently throw a forward pass accurately unlike Anthony Richardson. Since the NFL's requirements for QBs have gone to **** and melanin seems like a key part of the assessment I have no issues stamping Dart, Ewers, Beck, Leonard, McCord all with first round grades.

Laughable RB draft rankings with Skattebo coming in number 13. Rinse and repeat.
Absurd. I like Jeanty a lot and I think Skattebo is the #2 or 3 back after him. A lot of the glowing words that Jeanty received from this writer could be said about Cam as well. However he just received a generic short blurb. Nothing like: “Every college football fan knows just how dominant he’s been, leading the Sun Devils to the No. 4 seed in the inaugural 12-team college football playoff.”

Been hearing that Ewers will stay in college and transfer, possibly to Notre Dame. Coupled with Beck's injury, it seems increasingly likely that no white QB will be taken in the first round.

After the consensus top 3 black quarterbacks, the first white off the board is very much up in the air. Both Riley Leonard and Will Howard can improve their stock in the CFP, although Leonard is considered a better prospect. Carson Beck is probably still the favorite despite his struggles.

I've also been impressed with Kyle McCord as a sleeper pick all season, but he's getting 0 draft buzz so he might stay another year in school.

I have also heard Michigan State floated as a possibility for Ewers. If it's Notre Dame he should go for it, if not probably just make the jump to the NFL.

I do hope that the Josh Allen effect rubs off on Riley Leonard. Leonard was spoken highly of after his breakout season at Duke as a potential 1st rounder. He played within the Notre Dame system this year. Will Howard also has a chance to elevate his stock with playoff performances and a potential championship run. Big, strong kid with a proven record at both KSU and OSU. People don't mention how he was pushed out of KSU for Avery Johnson.

I believe McCord is petitioning for another year in school but if denied he needs to be viewed as a big time riser. What he did at Syracuse is much more impressive than what Sanders did at Colorado and Ward at Miami. Rourke should be viewed as a 3rd/4th rounder with starter potential.

Man the draft this year is going to be gross and impossible to watch, except for this site. What is the over under for whites taken in the first round 4.5?

Reports now coming out that Kurtis Rourke played the entire season with a torn ACL. I don't know if he's franchise QB material, but with this knowledge, his potential should be considered even higher than the excellent season he put together.

Jaxson Dart played great yesterday and should be ahead of most of the aforementioned scrubs. If someone doesn’t draft Skat by the end of day two, they’re truly short bus material. He eye test has to come before 40 times. But we know that won’t be the case. Guerendo didn’t pass the eye test in college, barely played....Ran fast at the combine and got drafted. Cody Schrader crushed in stats and eye test, but is white and his 40 time was less than ideal......Undrafted.... ********

Senior Bowl releasing underclassmen invited to the game - so far a whole slew of sumos.

And we even have scouts and GMs acknowledging the forty doesn’t equate to playing ability.

…yet they still draft purely on underwear Olympics straight line speed even if the guy is a poor football player. Black privilege at its finest.

Jaxson Dart, Riley Leonard, Will Howard, and Kurtis Rourke, just to mention a few, should all be getting serious consideration and hype for Day 1/Day 2 draft picks, but most of the media focus remains on the three magical upsiders.

The "scouts" and "experts" are mostly just hacks, always promoting the same players and never differentiating from the hive mind. But because no alternative voices are given a nationwide media platform, fans will continue to listen to and believe the hacks.

This is the latest QB draft rankings I could find. This is what I have seen in most mock drafts.

What a joke of a list. Again nothing is surprising after seeing the NFL remove any requirements outside melanin for the QB position over the past few years.

After the top three QBs, 18 of the next 21 are White. So the top three will get lots of hype and maybe one of them will turn out.

The agenda has progressed to the point that most years half or more of the top ranked QBs will be Black, but how many will work out? Recent history should make all but the worst Caste Clown organizations wary. C. J. Stroud looked to be an instant star last year but didn't this year. Richardson looks to be a classic mega-bust while Young may obtain mediocrity.

Reminds me somewhat of offensive tackle and guard, where the top prospects now are usually Black but the Whites drafted mid to late are often the backbone of the best lines.

Good comments gentlemen.

I think we see how the sports MSM forms the consensus and then the hive mind of the masses below enforce that opinion. Since the age of Trump started, the non-sports MSM has been discredited to the point of near irrelevance. 2024 especially was a mass awaking and another nail in their coffin. We need to make the same inroads with the sports MSM.

I’d suggest any of you guys active on YouTube give a follow and comment on Mister Truths channel. He does scouting videos on NFL and prospect QBs and is highly critical of many of the new batch coming through. He doesn’t get into the racial angle at all but he accurately rips “scouts”, “draft gurus”, GMs, NFL / College coaches (Lincoln Riley for example) for being morons. His channel is small but growing and a lot of the comments are awake to the failures of the system to develop proper QBs now. I’ll start dropping some seeds about a racial component, but I think the first step is to delegitimize all of the “experts” and MSM, which is happening but could use further nudging.

@Leonardfan , or others, do you see any similar groundswell on Twitter?

Yes, and I'm optimistic it can be done. X is a great potential tool, and now even Mark Zuckerberg has gone to Mar a Lago and bent the knee:

I don't trust Zuckerberg, or Musk either for that matter, but these are great indicators that the age of mass censorship is fast nearing its end. If Google ends its search engine censorship then the other search engines will likely follow in short order, which will greatly increase Caste Football's ability to reach new people. Pre-censorship we were getting roughly 20 new members per month; you can see how greatly that's dropped off since, to near zero.

And I'll repeat myself by saying that announcers make much more of an effort to be fair now, and comments often show that we've had a real impact. With the credibility of the corporate media in shambles, we should be able to make significant inroads in exposing and delegitimizing the lies and narratives of the Caste System during Trump 2.0. The "zeitgeist" is moving in our favor.

Not really. I see some but not a groundswell.

None of the senior bowl underclassmen invited today were White BTW. Seeing so many White athletes dominate college football especially on defense just to be disrespected by the NFL and it's rigged draft process will always piss me off.

Don has mentioned the numerous injuries to White LBs in the NFL and there are plenty of capable draft eligible LBs that have so far received no interest from the league - Jack Kiser, Shaun Dolac, Jackson Woodard, Bryce Boettcher are all impact players and I have yet to see invites for any of them. Dolac and Woodard were ranked 1st and 4th respectively in total tackles this year.

QB Spencer Petras Utah State


TE Tyler Neville Virginia
TE Stevo Klotz Iowa State

Pretty decent article on Skattebo’s NFL prospects.


Yeah I agree it was not bad. Alot of compliments but it's still amazing how only black running backs don't have to have sprinter type times in the 40 to be considered a star running back. This kid is so talented. Any team will be lucky to have him from day one!

The main concern I have with Skattebo is injuries. His running style of lowering his head and looking for contact is a recipe for concussions in the NFL. There is always an upsider looking for a chance to cheap-shot a whitey.

Agreed there.

While he is a strong, sturdy player, and great size (exact same size and build as Marshawn Lynch) he is not Mike Alstott or Peyton Hillis, 250 lbs size. And both of them had neck or concussion issues.

With Beck entering the transfer portal instead of the draft, the 2025 clown show is going to get even blacker. However, I think it’s smart on Carson’s part. As long as he gets a good team, he should have a great final year in college and become the clear #1 pick in 2026.
