*****
1.  Spencer Rattler, Oklahoma
Despite an up-and-down first game, Rattler still possesses the best combination of arm talent, feel and mobility for the NFL level.
*****
2. Sam Howell, North Carolina
Howell had a horrible first game and was under duress constantly but he still has the arm and intangibles to be a high first-rounder.
*****
3. Kedon Slovis, USC Â
Slovis gets a lot of flack from fans as USC underachieves but watch his mechanics and how fluid he is when he’s on.
*****
4. Matt Corral, Ole Miss
Corral is a high-risk, high-reward prospect. If he cuts down on his turnovers he could easily rise to the top of this board.
*****
5. Malik Willis, Liberty
Willis has a great arm and can move. His ceiling is arguably as high as anyone in the draft.
*****
6. Desmond Ridder, Cincinnati
Ridder does some very bad things but when he does good things you shake your head about his potential.
*****
7. Carson Strong, Nevada
He could be the Group of Five guy scouts fall in love with after this season with his size, arm and touch.
*****
8. Phil Jurkovec, Boston College Â
He’s come so far and continues to get better. His mobility at his size is coveted.
*****
9. Jayden Daniels, Arizona State
He doesn’t do anything great but his decision making and football sense is excellent and made for the NFL.
*****
10. Grayson McCall, Coastal Carolina
The level of competition is not really a concern anymore and he could be a third-round steal at this stage.
