Why Spencer Rattler is an intriguing option to be the future QB for the Saints
Here’s Destin Adams’ evaluation of Spencer Rattler:
“The talent Rattler possesses is undeniable, and I believe he unquestionably has the potential to be a long-term starter in the NFL. However, he needs to avoid self-sabotage both on and off the field. His ideal situation at the next level would be to start as a backup behind an established veteran quarterback, allowing him to learn the ropes for a year or two. Additionally, having a top-notch offensive mind on staff to develop the mental aspects of Rattler’s game would be crucial. I currently have a late day two to early day three grade on Rattler, but given the number of teams in need of quarterbacks, I think he could be drafted higher than expected as teams project his potential at the next level.” — Adams via A to Z Sports
