The Film guy network report. After Day 1 of the Elite 11 Finals, the analyst came away much more impressed with Ohio State quarterback commit Brady Edmonds than he was from watching film alone. He ranked Edmonds 6th overall in a loaded field of 20 elite quarterbacks and noted that while Brady isn't the most fluid or flashy athlete, he was one of the most consistent throwers at the event. What stood out most was that Edmonds reportedly produced the highest spin rate of any quarterback in attendance, allowing his passes to cut through the strong California coastal winds with exceptional accuracy and ball stability. The analyst described him as a prototypical Big Ten quarterback at 6'4"+ and 220 pounds, saying he now understands exactly why Ohio State targeted him. His conclusion was that Edmonds may not have the eye-popping traits of some of the five-star prospects, but he consistently knows where to go with the football, places it accurately, and has the tools to be a highly effective college quarterback in Ohio State's system. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P46Qa4oc4Wc
