Scouting Report
Miami · 2026 draft class
Carson Beck entered the 2024 college football season as the presumptive No. 1 quarterback prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft after leading Georgia to an 11-3 record and the College Football Playoff. While having a successful season, his performance through NFL eyes wasn't as sharp as his prior time with the Bulldogs. After briefly declaring for the 2025 draft, Beck opted to transfer to Miami, taking over for Cam Ward who emerged as the No. 1 overall pick after one year in Miami. A four-star recruit who played baseball in high school, Beck was a two-time national champion at Georgia (2021, 2022) and earned Second-team All-SEC honors in 2023. The 6-4, 220-pounder is a very good quarterback when patient, seeing the defense well both pre- and post-snap and confident in both his arm and the players around him. He underwent UCL surgery on his throwing elbow at the end of 2024 season but started the 2025 season hot at Miami behind a very good offensive line.
