When Trent Dilfer watches LSU QB commit Myles Brennan, he’s reminded of former Cal QB Jared Goff, the No. 1 overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft.
“I thought he had a great weekend,” Dilfer said per 247Sports’ Shea Dixon. “I didn’t know much about Myles outside of his highlight film because I wasn’t at his (New Orleans) regional. He’s a super impressive kid. We always try to do these comparisons now because we have kind of a large sample size of guys playing college football and in the NFL. He has Goff-like qualities. The look is kind of similar and the frame is kind of similar, but he’s got more twitch than Jared.”
Dilfer, currently an ESPN NFL analyst, works with Elite 11 quarterbacks, who earn invites from “The Opening” regional competition camps put on by Nike. Twenty four quarterbacks, including Brennan, attended the Elite 11 Finals in Los Angeles over the past weekend in hopes of earning an invite to “The Opening Finals” this July at Nike headquarters in Beaverton, Ore.
Brennan will find out if he’s one of 12 invitees (yes, the Elite 11 names 12 quarterbacks) today at noon ET. The Tigers commit was previously listed as one of the top three performers during the camp’s “Pro Day.”
