How does Nico stack up on the metrics you were citing a second ago? We have good run game and decent supporting cast.

He gets a slight boost for mediocre receivers/OL, a decent deduction for the run-game help, and a nice boost for SOS. Comes out ahead by a bit when you add it all up. I've got him #24 in the country, by far the best of any true or rs-freshman.

That seems fair for sure. I definitely underestimated the learning curve for a rsfreshman. Manning provided a good litmus for comparison.

UNC's offense might suck next season but under Belichick defense will be top 10 in the Country. Book it..

An interesting note I came across on Mensah.

There are three primary factors outside the QB's control that affect performance the most:
1. SOS
2. Supporting Cast (OL and WR help)
3. Usage. Guys in run-heavy offenses benefit a ton from stacked boxes, play-action, etc. and will usually put up significantly better YPA / AYPA / Rating / etc.

Mensah had a <10th percentile SOS, >90th percentile supporting cast, and >90th percentile usage boost. No one in all of FBS (and I believe only Tommy Mellott at Montana State) was helped more from his surrounding context this year. He's still a solid QB, but he's a lot closer to average than his numbers make him look imo.

Yeah, but those were true freshman numbers. I was looking at him having a RS still and 3 years of eligibility. Would make a good depth piece and ya never know anymore about if Jake/George are going to stay with how the portal is setup.

Totally agree. Wasn't trying to put him down. Still really good numbers for a freshman.
