3. Paxton Lynch

Lynch is an underrated quarterback in this year draft due to the weaker competition that he played against at Memphis, however, he has the tools that will make him a solid NFL quarterback. He has the size while also showing impressive accuracy and mobility for a 6’7 quarterback.

He does have some work to do however as he needs to work on his touch and some technique, but this is a guy that could develop into the best quarterback in this draft. The key here is that he isn’t thrown into the fire right away.

Lynch is going to need time to develop. Maybe not an entire season, but sitting the first 4-6 weeks of his rookie season could benefit him. Going to a team that is going to force him into action right away wouldnt be a great situation for him.
