    The 2019 NFL Draft was a fun quarterback group for fans, analysts, and teams to enjoy seeing if their team would land them. One of those quarterbacks was Brett Rypien, who had wrapped up a very successful career at Boise State.

    Upon entering the NFL Draft, Lance Zierlein of NFL Media wrote up his draft profile, which includes a funny note that Vikings fans may enjoy.

    It doesn’t relate to hand size, bench press, or his 3-cone drill workout. It relates to his pro comparison as it happens to be a full-circle moment for Rypien and one of his teammates.

    The veteran draft analyst had his official player comparison for Rypien to be his future teammate, Nick Mullens.

    As someone who did draft analysis for that class, I believe the player comp is accurate. They both have live arms that can make throws to any level of the field, but they struggle with some mechanics and processing, which leads to turnovers and bad plays.

    Despite that note, Rypien could prove to be a perfect fit for Kevin O’Connell the same way Nick Mullens has. Neither one will win an MVP award anytime soon, but they can be efficient within his offense.
