With two years of eligibility remaining and a star studded quarterback class projected in 2027, Darian Mensah appears to be one of the top NFL prospects.



According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Mensah opens as the 5th quarterback but also the 5th overall player with best odds to be the top pick.

Mensah odds opens up at (+1400) just behind South Carolina quarterback LaNorris Sellers. The top quarterback is Arch Manning (+225), with Oregon quarterback Dante Moore behinds him at (+380).

Last season with the Duke Blue Devils, Mensah broke out going for 3,973 passing yards and 34 touchdown passes, for only six interceptions.

The impressive thing with Mensah is that he still has two more years of eligibility left, so he can prove a lot and be in the talks to be the No. 1 quarterback rated next year.

Fernando Mendoza was the No. 1 pick and the No. 1 quarterback off the board in the 2026 NFL Draft, and Carson Beck went in the 3rd round. If Mensah gets drafted near the top, it'll be three years in a row that Mario Cristobal has put a top quarterback into the NFL.

 

Sellers has better odds...lol

 

CJ Carr....

 

Darian Givens gone eat with these weapons.

Does anyone ever edit for Trinton?

 

Someone explain to me the Arch Manning love. At best, he was above average though inconsistent last year.

I just don’t get how a guy ranked 41st in passing efficiency last year would be predicted to be the top quarterback taken in 2027. I mean sure he can improve this year but that’s not a given.

I think most of his best stats last year were against his weakest opponents. Now that’s going to be normally true of most quarterbacks, but he didn’t show much against the really good teams he played.

41st in passing efficiency, 85th in completion percentage, make it make sense.

Whats Brendan Sorsby say

 

Is the Manning Family investing in NFL Ownership?

 

I said my target for Mensah is 50 total TD's this season. If he hits that and we get in the playoffs, he will go in the Top 10.

 

In the universe that exists in the Matthews thread in the recruiting forum, Mensah has already been drafted in the 6th round of the 2027 NFL draft.

 

Any GM who drafts Dante Moore when Jeremiah Smith is available deserves to lose his job.

But this is a Darien Mensah thread. He's a better college QB than any other player on that list. Hopefully he wins the last game of the season and gets to play with the big boys in 2027.

Enter in the NY Jets

 

Seems like a good price, we just had a transfer QB go 1/1 and we've got weapons all around

50 tuds is almost a shoe-in for Heisman that’s no small feat.

50 TD’s is a lot to ask, especially if we get leads and hold them. I don’t think we’re going too be running the type of offense nor will be playing a lot from behind, to have him slinging it all over the yard for no reason.

Agreed. I'm somewhat surprised Smith isn't higher up on this list.
