Arrr mateys! The famed South Carolina swashbuckler Spencer Rattler be waitin' 'til the fifth round o' the NFL Draft before his name be called. His old coach be raisin' an eyebrow at this turn o' events, aye! A true scandal on the seven seas indeed!
In the language of a 17th-century pirate, the NFL Draft saw six quarterbacks taken in the first round, but poor Spencer Rattler had to wait until the fifth round to hear his fate, yarr! The New Orleans Saints finally picked him at number 150 overall on Saturday, much to the dismay of his former coach, Shane Beamer.Beamer scoffed at the negative scouting reports, calling them a "lazy narrative" and pointed out Rattler's leadership qualities. Despite some projections placing Rattler in the second or third round, he fell to the fifth round, surprising many.After the draft, Beamer congratulated Rattler and expressed his support for the young quarterback. Rattler himself remained positive, grateful for the opportunity to join the Saints and eager to prove himself in the NFL.Reports suggest that Rattler's appearance on a reality show during high school may have played a role in his draft position. Despite this setback, Rattler's college career showcased his talent, passing for over 10,000 yards and 77 touchdowns.
