2024 Pass/Rush Stats
2025 Pass/Rush Projections
Headed for NFL
Buechele announced Friday on his personal Twitter account will bypass his remaining eligibility and head for the 2021 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
Buechele's career really took off upon his arrival at SMU, where he has thrown for a combined 57 touchdown passes and completed 65.4 percent of his pass attempts over 23 games in the last two seasons. Buechele would have been eligible to return next season due to the NCAA extending all fall player eligibility by a season, but he will instead turn his focus toward the NFL Combine and the draft.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2017
Buechele is back for his senior season and is in a favorable spot at the helm of SMU’s up-tempo offense. He finished sixth in the nation in passing yards in the regular season and added 33 touchdowns against just nine picks on 443 attempts. SMU lost James Proche to the NFL but Buechele won’t be wanting for talent given that Reggie Roberson and matchup nightmare Kylen Granson are back in the fold. Buechele won’t offer much rushing production and his passing numbers may already be maxed out, but even if that’s the case, the SMU signal-caller is a safe option with a high floor in an offense geared towards gaudy production from its passing game.
