San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy celebrates with safety Talanoa Hufanga, right, after an NFL football game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Santa Clara, Calif., Sunday, Dec. 11, 2022. The conversation took place mere minutes after Brock Purdy’s first career start.
So, in true Mr. Irrelevant spirit, Succop reminded the young quarterback that hearing his name in the final spot of the draft was neither a slight nor source of embarrassment. “The traits that made Purdy a hit, I think teams are going to place a lot more premium on,” said NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah, who spent 10 years as an NFL scout. “Accuracy, intelligence, decision-making, and more than anything else, I think the fact that he has played a lot of football.
High-ceiling players, meanwhile, boast elite measurements — perhaps at size, speed or both — but haven't demonstrated the application of those traits sufficiently to earn an earlier selection. Here, teams “trait hunt,” eyeing the tantalizing potential if they can effectively develop the prospect. The Giants saw special teams potential in 2020 Mr. Irrelevant Tae Crowder as well, his running-back-to-linebacker transition at Georgia a sign of versatility. Within five games, Crowder was elevated to a defensive starter. He’d start 31 of the next 33 games for the Giants defense, becoming the first Mr. Irrelevant since 2000 to crack a team’s starting lineup for multiple seasons, per Pro Football Reference.
