The quarter-Arrière Quinn Ewers had the longest waiting to hear his name called to anyone in his post during the 2025 draft, but was finally selected by Miami at n ° 231 in the seventh round.
After making the choice, the director general Chris Grier told journalists that Ewers “obviously had a very good university career”.
“Mike (McDaniel) and I met him the previous year during Texas training and spent time,” said Grier during his press conference, via the team’s transcription. “We spoke to the coach (Steve) Sarkisian of him, and” Sark “really loves and was raised (on him) and spoke of playing him injuries this year, which affected his game a little. But talked about his tenacity, his mental tenacity, the push with the injury, expectations, all pressure with (arc) and his way.
“So it was someone we always had an eye on the look, and the opportunity at that time of the draft was logical for us to make the choice.”
McDaniel noted that more ewers writing is that some of Sarkisian’s offensive concepts are similar to what dolphins manage.
“This is beneficial because you can assess a lot of nuances that you must generally plan,” said McDaniel. “I think that one of the things that gives it an advantage as a recruit that has just started is this overlap. I think the way he orchestrates the offense of movement timing and really anticipates things, there is an adjustment there, so we are delighted to get it into the program and start working. “
Ewers launched for 3,472 yards with 31 touchdown and 12 interceptions in its last season in Texas in 2024.
