45. Kyron Drones, Virginia Tech

Perhaps with a return to full strength, he can recapture the momentum he built in 2023 with 17 passing touchdowns to just three interceptions, plus 818 rushing yards. 

44. Eli Holstein, Pittsburgh

He started his Panthers career with three touchdowns in each of his first five outings and quickly emerged as a dynamic dual-threat breakout before an extremely quiet and injury-plagued conclusion to the season made Year 1 in the program an overall mixed bag.

43. Marcel Reed, Texas A&M

Over 11 games last season, Reed threw for 1,864 yards and 15 touchdowns and registered 543 yards and seven scores on the ground. Those are great numbers for a player who was not the Aggies’ starter coming out of camp.

42. Gunner Stockton, Georgia

Stockton has not shown enough yet to push him into the upper crust of SEC quarterbacking, but there’s a certain expectation level that comes with being Georgia’s starter in a Mike Bobo-driven scheme.

41. Chandler Morris, Virginia

He was a high-volume passer who more than doubled his career-high marks in yardage (3,774) and touchdowns (31), but with that greater usage also came an average of one turnover per game. Things have not worked out at the P4 level for Morris, so even with an all-conference year under his belt, he has a lot to prove at Virginia.
