Analyst Gives Will Howard Surprising Odds To Make Instant Impact

Nobody expected the quarterback class to go off the board the way it did during the 2025 NFL Draft. Cam Ward going first overall wasn’t surprising, but just about everything else was. The seemingly-consensus second QB in the class, Shedeur Sanders, went on Day 3. Dillon Gabriel went two rounds earlier, and to the same team, the Cleveland Browns. Finally, the Steelers were able to get Will Howard in the sixth round. That surprised some who expected him to come off the board earlier.

On Monday, Ralph Vacchiano with Fox News put together a list, ranking the best situations for each quarterback who was drafted this year.
