After three Miami Hurricanes were picked in the first round of the NFL draft on Thursday, three of their teammates were selected in the third round on Friday night.
Miami quarterback Carson Beck was the first UM player off the board on Friday evening. He was the first pick of the third round, going to the Arizona Cardinals. Beck and last yearâs No. 1 pick Cam Ward are the first UM quarterbacks drafted in back-to-back years since Craig Erickson and Gino Toretta were picked in the 1992 and 1993 drafts, respectively.
âHeâs big, heâs tough, heâs strong, he stands strong in the pocket,â Arizona general manager Monti Ossenfort told AZCentral. âNot afraid to take a hit in the pocket. Heâs got good arm strength, he can drive the ball down the field. Good accuracy, good production. Those are all things that we liked.â
After spending most of his college career at Georgia â and winning two national titles as a backup quarterback â Beck transferred to Miami before the 2025 season. He rehabbed from elbow surgery, and he led UM to a 10-2 regular season record.
Beck led the Hurricanes to the first three College Football Playoff wins in program history. He helped Miami beat Texas A&M on the road in the first round, upset Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl and secured the Hurricanesâ spot in the national title game with a game-winning touchdown against Ole Miss in the Fiesta Bowl. Miami eventually fell to Indiana in the championship game, and Beck threw the game-sealing interception.
Beck finished his one season at Miami with 3,813 passing yards and a 72.4 completion percentage; he had 30 touchdown passes and 12 interceptions.
Ossenfort said that Beckâs experience in big games was part of why the team picked him.
âWhen you see a player who has had big-game experience, when you make this transition to the NFL, thereâs more hope that itâs not gonna be too big for them,â Ossenfort said. âSo itâs not gonna be a deer in the headlights.â
