2024 Pass/Rush Projections
Splits time under center
Mertz was 12-for-15 passing for 195 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 33-20 defeat to Texas A&M.
ANALYSIS
Mertz and DJ Lagway alternated series, and neither quarterback was particularly effective. SEC play continues at Mississippi State next weekend, and it could be a long, dreary season for the Florida offense.

Graham Mertz looks to build upon his 2023 finish, where he was averaging 22.2 fantasy points per game over his last six against SEC competition. He's one of Nick Grays' top CFB waiver wire pickups for Week 1.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Anthony Richardson was a top-five pick in the NFL Draft, largely based upon his freakish athletic ability. The Gators brought in Mertz from Wisconsin in the transfer portal, though Mertz represents a play-caller standing in stark contrast to Richardson. Mertz is a pocket-passer, though has completed fewer than 60-percent of his passes during his collegiate career. He did throw a career-high 19 touchdowns a season ago, but has not lived up to his potential. If the change of scenery does not help Mertz, then former Ohio State transfer Jack Miller is next in line. Miller started the Las Vegas Bowl for the Gators, completing 13-of-22 passes for 180 yards. Florida should lean on its very talented backfield this season, but will obviously need production out of Mertz, Miller or Max Brown to stand any chance against Georgia in the SEC East. It would be a surprise if Mertz was not under center in the season opener for the Gators, though.
