Ryker Scott Ryker Scott 5'10" | 135 lbs | QB Higley | 2029 AZ ‘s game has a lot of the ingredients you want, and the separator for him is going to be consistency of composure — not talent. He’s athletic enough to extend plays, but what I like is that when he breaks the pocket he’s still looking to throw, not bailing into runner mode the second things get uncomfortable. When he’s calm and playing within himself, he’s got the full package: lightning-quick delivery, good feet, and solid accuracy. Where he gets into trouble is the classic young-QB moment — trying to put a little extra on the ball while also getting it out in a hurry — and that’s when the mechanics start slipping; the front side flies open early, and he pulls his head out of the throw right at the release. The good news is that’s a fixable problem, and you can already see the version of him that works when he stays cool. If he can make that calm, controlled version his default for four quarters — not just when things are clean — his game will take a massive jump.
