# Brady Quinn — prediction record

Brady Quinn was a first-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2007 after winning the Maxwell Award at Notre Dame, and went on to play seven NFL seasons as a quarterback—including stints with the Broncos, Chiefs, Jets, and Rams. These days he's on the other side of the microphone, co-hosting the weekday morning show *2 Pros and a Cup of Joe* alongside LaVar Arrington and Jonas Knox, where he makes picks against the spread and digs into everything from the NFL Combine to draft prospects like Ashton Jeanty and Jaxson Dart. He also works as a college football analyst on Fox's *Big Noon Kickoff* and calls NFL and CFB games for the network.

## Record

LIMITED SAMPLE: between 10 and 29 graded articles. Treat with caution.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.
