Thought about the best quarterback of his age and the greatest 'can't-miss' possibility since Andrew Luck (2012). Has been the nation's highest level quarterback since secondary school, where he won two state titles. Added a public title with Clemson on the way to a momentous record of 86-4 in secondary school and College. Presently 6ft 6in, seen as the most complete quarterback in this draft and prepared to initiate the Jacksonville Jaguars' remake.
Zach Wilson
The New York Jets need a quarterback subsequent to exchanging Sam Darnold and Wilson is the most unique accessible. A Mormon with Hawaiian heritage, he played at Brigham Young University and shared the Polynesian College Player of the Year grant subsequent to tossing 33 scores in 2020. Slippery with the capacity to throw on the run and away from him foot, which means he has an eye-getting features reel and has been contrasted with Patrick Mahomes.
Justin Fields
Included on season two of TV narrative QB1: Beyond The Lights, which showed the assumption expanding on Fields in his last year at secondary school, when he decided to play College football at Georgia. Following a year as back-up, moved to Ohio State and was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy (best College player) after 41 passing scores and 10 hurrying scores in 2019. The current year's best double danger alternative.
Mac Jones
The San Francisco 49ers have exchanged up for the third pick, yet who is it they extravagant? Jones is a no nonsense quarterback who was the model of consistency at Alabama and cases to have a photographic memory. Driven the high degree of College football in 2020 for pass finishing rate and passing yards (4,500), yet scrambled for just 14, with Alabama beating Fields' Ohio State in the public title game in January.
Devonta Smith

Had 557 accepting yards from the initial four rounds of 2020 preceding a lower leg injury kept him out until the public title game. The Combine being dropped denied him the opportunity to challenge the 40m scramble record. Could turn into the quickest part in the NFL.
Kyle Pitts
Pitts is named a tight end yet is more similar to a major collector. At 6ft 6in and 250lbs, he's predominant noticeable all around and didn't drop a solitary catch at Florida in 2020, making 43 gets for 770 yards. A unique tight end who can likewise hinder in all out attack mode line, Pitts could be the principal tight end drafted in the main five since 1972.
Trey Lance

As a result of the pandemic, his group just had one presentation game a year ago and a blended showcase left question marks, so a few examiners dread he or Mac Jones could tumble down the board.
Ja'Marr Chase
Pursue likewise quit 2020 yet in 2019 was the top collector for Joe Burrow at Louisiana State University, in front of Justin Jefferson. Enlisted 1,780 accepting yards and 20 scores in 2019, including two scores as LSU beat Trevor Lawrence's Clemson in the public title game.
