Prospects Comments
NFL - Pocket quarterback with good size who has shown consistent improvement as a passer. Rudolph is more of a downfield, play-action passer than a quarterback who can win with precision and arm strength. He's a capable field reader who has the ability to operate with timing which will be important since his arm can be dull at times. Rudolph could be an early backup with the potential of becoming an average to below average starter in the league.

DLF - Combine review  Former Oklahoma State quarterback Mason Rudolph is the forgotten man in this deep quarterback class. Although he is almost certain to fall to the second round, he is not a player dynasty owners, especially those in 2QB leagues, should ignore. Rudolph paired with wide receiver James Washington for the past three seasons to form an elite college duo. Now that he’s preparing for the NFL, that high-powered offense is actually being used against him, considering the Big 12 is not exactly known for their strong defense. Rudolph tested out below average athletically, but that is no surprise. Most of his positives can be seen on film.

CBS - Vastly experienced pocket passer with ideal size for the quarterback spot. Full-field reader with impeccable downfield touch to make "bucket throws" often. Natural mover in the pocket. Arm strength is good but lacks at times. Moves decently well for his size. Familiar wih RPOs. Likely late Round 1 or Round 2 pick.

DLF - ROOKIE DRAFT ADVICE     In one-quarterback leagues without super deep rosters, Rudolph shouldn’t be owned. Our conversation here starts with superflex and two-quarterback leagues. In such formats, I’d begin to consider Rudolph at the turn between the second and third rounds. If the likes of Tre’Quan Smith, Kalen Ballage and Antonio Callaway are still on the board, I’d go there first. Even then, I’m unlikely to own Rudolph in any of my leagues. Waiting three or four years to see if a third-round quarterback is going to have value is the definition of a wasted roster spot.
