Mike Tanier's Combine Notebook: Brandon Doughty Climbs the Board
INDIANAPOLIS — Brandon Doughty of Western Kentucky arrived at the NFL Scouting Combine as just another also-ran quarterback seeking a late-round opportunity to compete for a backup spot.
He leaves as one of the sleepers at this year’s draft class, an intriguing prospect who lacks the measureables of a Carson Wentz or Connor Cook but may make up for it with precision and timing.
Doughty put on a show during passing drills on Saturday, routinely pinpointing passes with a quick, consistent release and enough velocity. The performance verified Doughty’s game tape. Doughty consistently anticipates open receivers and hits them in stride on shorter routes.
