Hold up, y’all. This Saturday in Stillwater, Oklahoma, it’s not just a college football game. It’s a full-on NFL scout convention, and the league is paying *serious* attention. We’re talking Atlanta Falcons president of football Matt Ryan and general manager Ian Cunningham, plus Arizona Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort. Oh, and 20 other NFL scouts. All descending on the Oregon Ducks vs. Oklahoma State Cowboys clash.
The Big Guns Are Out Early
It’s a heavy hitter lineup of evaluators, all reportedly heading to Stillwater for the game. ESPN’s Max Olson dropped the intel, and it tells you everything you need to know about the stakes. When the brass from multiple NFL teams, including a legend like Matt Ryan now in a front office role, shows up, it’s not for the tailgate. They’re there for one primary reason: the quarterbacks.
2027 Draft QB Race: Moore Leading the Pack
Oregon’s Dante Moore and Oklahoma State’s Drew Mestemaker are both expected to be in the mix as potential first-round picks for the 2027 NFL draft. And if you needed more proof of how high Moore’s stock already is, check this out: ESPN’s Pete Thamel polled 25 NFL scouts and execs, and a whopping 14 of them picked Moore to be the *first* quarterback off the board in 2027. That’s a huge vote of confidence this early. We’ve already seen Moore “go OFF” against the James Madison Dukes, so it’s clear why he’s getting this kind of buzz. You know these scouts will be watching every throw, every decision this weekend.
