There are many different quarterback options available in the upcoming 2025 NFL draft. At the very top of the draft, Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders appear to be the top two options.
Behind them, there are options like Jaxson Dart, Jalen Milroe, and Kyle McCord.
Outside of the top names being talked about, there are a few major sleepers. One of those sleepers is Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough.
Shough played in six college seasons, but was involved in college football for seven years. His stock has started rising as the draft continues to draw closer.
Now, Shough is actually receiving some national hype from some NFL draft experts.
Todd McShay, one of the most popular draft experts in the business, revealed a very bold take about Shough with the draft just over a month away.
During an appearance on the "Ultimate Cleveland Sports Show," McShay said that he believes Shough could be a major steal.
"I think he (Tyler Shough) is going to be an absolute steal in this class, I really do," McShay said.

Kyle Crabbs of The 33rd Team recently made an interesting NFL comparison for Shough. He believes Josh McCown is a quarterback worth comparing him to.
In addition, Shough received a third-round grade from The 33rd Team.
With Louisville in 2024, Shough completed 62.7% of his pass attempts for 3,195 yards, 23 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
ESPN analyst Louis Riddick also recently hyped up Shough during a segment on "Get Up" when breaking down the biggest NFL draft risers.
"Tyler Shough is the one. ... This cat can throw the rock," Riddick said.
