Carson Beck
QB. College career: Georgia (where he was viewed as a first-round prospect before injury), then Miami (after elbow reconstruction post-2024 season, threw the game-winner vs. Ole Miss in the Final Four, led Miami to the 2025 national championship game).
Drafted in round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals. Jason Moore's read: "He's not going to work" — not because of talent, but because of the franchise. Cardinals are too dysfunctional to develop him properly. Lost zip on his arm post-elbow surgery; the hopium is that he regains pre-injury arm strength a year+ removed.
