We are approaching the NFL Combine. While rankings are still subject to change, I wanted to take a quick look at where things stand right now. NFL Network’s Mike Mayock has a bit of a surprise at the top of his positional rankings at quarterback.
1. DeShone Kizer, Notre Dame
2. Deshaun Watson, Clemson
3. Mitch Trubisky, North Carolina
4. Patrick Mahomes II, Texas Tech
5. Davis Webb, California
This is interesting. It seems to me like Kizer has been a forgotten man. I have heard a lot of talk about Watson or Trubisky potentially going to the Jets, but Kizer’s name isn’t mentioned as much despite many thinking he is a first round pick.
At this point, I tend to disagree with Mayock. I am not a huge fan of Kizer for a number of reasons, including inconsistency. It is still worth watching to see whether Kizer rises or falls as the process plays itself out.
