Currid had a monster junior year easily surpassing 3,000 yards through the air. The confident lefty has a strong arm and is a great decision maker. He has a ton of amazing weapons back in this offense. He has a combination of big, physical receivers and some speedsters to stretch the field.

Belin built off a good sophomore year with a monster summer. During the Stony Brook 7v7 playoffs, every drive he led resulted in a touchdown. Belin has a cannon of an arm and he's also the most athletic quarterback in this league.He will make a ton of plays with his legs and you can expect Belin to do amazing things outside of the pocket.

I think people will be surprised when they see Rainone's running ability on display a little bit more. He has underrated athleticism, and despite losing [player_tooltip player_id='241127' first='Josiah' last='Brown'] he has a ton of options at receiver.
