I am going to give an unironic shout out to the man, the myth, the legend, the most popular boy in Saskatoon, Logan Noble. Noble was acquired by the Legion as a stand-in QB while the team searched for their future QB. Despite only being a journeyman stand-in, Noble has performed quite well this season (up until week 6).
Up until week 6, Noble had a terrific 8 touchdowns to only 1 interception, one of the best TD:INT ratios in the entire league. Noble also currently has the second best completion percentage in the league, at 61.9%, 1% behind Orosz. Obviously week 6 was a disaster, where Noble threw 6 interceptions against the outstanding Wraiths defense. But if we completely ignore this one outlier, Noble has quietly been a very effective QB. His biggest knock has been his lack of volume, as the Legion offense has up to this point leaned heavily on its run game. Indeed, Noble only has about 1400 passing yards, 7th in the league and 400 yards behind the 6th placed QB. It is this efficiency that is why I believe Noble is one of the more underrated players in the league, though I'm not saying he's outstanding or anything.
