“I Am the Best Quarterback in This Class”: NFL Fans Drag Tom Brady’s Name as Cardinals Fifth-Round Pick Amuses Them With Insane Confidence

The 2023 NFL Draft had a pool of rookie talents for franchises. The top prospects in the QB position were picked up early in the first round. Day 1 of the draft saw the likes of QBs like Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, and Anthony Richardson going to the Carolina Panthers, Houston Texans, and Indianapolis Colts, respectively.

Will Levis, who was a projected top draft pick, did not see success on the first day, as the Tennessee Titans acquired the QB as their 33rd overall pick in Round 2. But there is this certain fifth-round QB pick by the Arizona Cardinals who believes in himself being the best despite not being a top draft prospect. Will this player be a boom or a bust?

The best QB in the class of 2023?

When the Cardinals picked up Clayton Tune as their 139th overall pick in the fifth round, it made him the ninth QB to be selected in this year’s draft. Despite not being a top QB prospect, Tune is still very confident about himself and his abilities in the field.

According to Bob McManaman of the Arizona Republic, the QB said that he’s “the best quarterback in this class.” While QBs like Young, Richardson, and Stroud, including Will Levis, were placed ahead of him, it does not deter this 24-year-old from believing that he is the best of what the 2023 draft has to offer in terms of a QB.

Clayton Tune played the last five years leading the Houston offense. While it is still a question of doubt whether Kyler Murray will start for the Cardinals after a torn ACL injury, Tune still has to impress ahead of Colt McCoy, David Blough, and Jeff Driskel for the QB1 spot. But fans have not ruled out Tune actually making it big in the NFL, as they remember what happened with the legend and GOAT of the game Tom Brady.

The new Tom Brady?

There was a time when even 7X Super Bowl champ Tom Brady was drafted in the sixth round of the NFL Draft back in 2000 by the New England Patriots. And fans have not forgotten the legacy Brady has created in the NFL, as they had divided opinions on Tune’s comment about himself. 

This fan liked the confidence that Clayton Tune has, reminding people of how Brady started his NFL journey.
