5 QBs who could skyrocket up the Rankings

As I’ve written about the 2024 Quarterbacks, I feel that I’ve written mostly on the talents towards the top. In this article, I’ll be discussing QBs in the ladder-half of the rankings that I feel could easily rise in the rankings with a few adjustments. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="216986" first="Tyler" last="Herzog"] - Avondale </strong> There are many things to be optimistic about and a few things to question with Tyler. First, with the few yellow flags, I haven’t seen Tyler very active during the offseason or on social media. Now, for the green flags, I know that Tyler is a competitor and has an insane drive to win. While coaching Avondale’s JV team in 2020, Tyler came in as a fiery competitor who had excellent leadership potential. I hope that Tyler can lead the Yellowjackets to an OAA Gold title with Avondale’s offensive talent and the offensive-minded coaching. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="249503" first="Jake" last="Zann"] - Alpena</strong> As I’ve said multiple times, Zann can sling it. Zann needs to improve his decision-making and accuracy, but if he cleans up just a few fixable things, he can improve his game and rise in the rankings pretty quickly. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="216984" first="Sunny" last="Kadlitz"] - Berkley</strong> Pretty active during the offseason, Kadlitz shows lots of promise as Berkley’s QB1. Inconsistent during 2021, I hope that Kadlitz has improved his game enough to take a big step up this season, Berkley ended last season swinging with an OT loss against a great Waterford Mott team, and they’ll be the favorites to win the OAA Gold this season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="253290" first="Ryan" last="Shelby"] - North Farmington</strong> A baseball and football standout, [player_tooltip player_id="253290" first="Ryan" last="Shelby"] is a great athlete who will strive for a consistent 2022 season. Shelby has similar physical tools to Rochester’s Bueno, but Shelby needs to put it all together to become dominant. IQ and grace under pressure will be tremendous for Shelby this season. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="327836" first="Noah" last="Funk"] - GR Christian</strong> An offseason standout with camps &amp; 7-on-7, [player_tooltip player_id="327836" first="Noah" last="Funk"] is a promising QB in a unique situation. See, Funk was the backup this past season behind Wickstrom. GR Christian consistently faces many top opponents, and if Funk gets significant time, he could truly shine. Specifically, he’s made great reads, and he’s delivered many accurate strikes through the past few months. He’s a very similar QB to Wickstrom, and it will be interesting to see how this season plays out.
