Quarterback is arguably the most important position in the NFL, and every year a few teams need a QB. Below are the top QB prospects to enter the 2019 NFL Draft.
Will Grier
Will Grier is a very solid player, and at the end of his career he may become a pro bowl caliber QB, but as of right now he seems like a high end backup/low end starter. If I were a team with an older QB, such as the Saints, Patriots, or Steelers, I may take a risk on Grier in the second or third round of the draft to hopefully develop him into a future star. Grier has many comparisons to Baker Mayfield coming out of college, but the matter of fact is that he isn't that good yet. Grier's upside is high, yet he is not a first round value. He is still one of the better QB's in this draft making him fifth ranked.
Daniel Jones
Daniel Jones has all of the traits of a star NFL QB. He's tall, has a good arm, is a leader, and is pretty damn accurate. The only thing he lacks is the star power. Coming from Duke, which is more known as a basketball school rather than a football school, Jones has been overlooked in the NFL. He hasn't led his team to big wins, but despite that he's still a solid QB. He is definitely a first round talent, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a team such as the Redskins to be interested in him.
Drew Lock
About this time last year, Drew Lock was supposed to be the best quarterback in college football, but for some reason that never really happened. Lock was still an excellent QB, but he wasn't proving himself to be the best. Lock has immense upside, and personally I think he's pretty similar to Baker Mayfield. If I'm John Elway right now, I'm scouting Lock as much as possible, because he could be the future of the Broncos.
Dwayne Haskins
Dwayne Haskins may be the most physically gifted quarterback in this draft. He's tall, strong, and has a big arm. Haskins, despite being a one year starter has proven he has the ability to win big games, throw the ball well, and get his team to score. Haskins this season broke many Big 10 records this year and showed that he can lead a team. A team like the Jaguars or Giants could really benefit from Haskins being QB.
Kyler Murray
Rumor has it that the Cardinals are going to pick Kyler Murray with the first overall pick. That would be the dumbest thing ever if true. While Murray is an excellent QB, why give up on Josh Rosen only after one season. Anyways this is about Murray. Murray is not the tallest, or strongest QB, but he's the best QB. He plays with passion for the sport and proved that he can lead teams to the playoffs and take on the best teams in the nation. Murray has a killer scrambling ability too which helps him keep plays alive. Murray can be the next big thing if put in the right situation. I believe the Giants should pick him with the 6th overall pick.
