Quarterbacks Aqeel Glass and Cole Kelley Display NFL Talent
The NFLPA Collegiate Bowl displayed the talents of young all-star players who may not get the limelight but have the talent to play in the NFL.
I watched two college quarterbacks in 2021. Both young men hail from FCS programs. Aqeel Glass from the Alabama A&M Bulldogs and Cole Kelly from Southeastern Louisiana Lions. They went toe-to-toe on Saturday in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl game. Kelley's National team prevailed over Glass' American crew by a final score of 25-24. Kelley received the MVP, but Glass stole the show in the long run.
Aqeel Glass & Cole Kelley
GLASS: STRONG ARM & ACCURATE
GLASS HAS THE PACKAGE
KELLEY IS A PROTOTYPICAL QB, AND MORE
KELLEY: BIG, STRONG, AND MOBILE
Glass and Kelley need polishing. Can they succeed at the next level? Yes. They have better ball placement and mobility than most NFL backups and journeymen. Glass would remind people of Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. He can gun it to receivers and place the football where only his guy can catch it.
Under a suitable system, Glass and Kelley would thrive. It's too bad Sean Payton is no longer in New Orleans - he would have loved their skills and talent.
