Current offers: Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio State, Oregon, Texas A&M and many more.
Why watch: Bailey already has the look and build of a college quarterback. Playing for a powerhouse program, Bailey is one of the most well-known quarterbacks in the country and his commitment will have a direct impact on many top-rated players. While Florida and Alabama have done a great job with Bailey so far, there is plenty of time for other schools to make a move.
Current offers: Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Missouri, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Why watch: In what looks like a great group of quarterbacks from Georgia, Johnson might have the highest ceiling of all of them. Son of former NFL and Florida State quarterback Brad Johnson, Max has garnered praise for more than just his last name. His arm strength, football IQ and deep passing skills are outstanding. Johnson, a lefty, will be one of the most sought-after throwers in the 2020 class.
Current offers: Florida State, USC, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Texas A&M and UCLA are among McLaughlin's earliest offers.
Why watch: A 6-foot-5 incoming freshman quarterback with double-digit offers is pretty much unheard of. McLaughlin will be under the microscope for the next four years. He has drawn rave reviews from everybody that has seen him play and he potentially has the biggest upside of any quarterback on this list.
Current offers: Florida State, Ohio State, North Carolina, Texas A&M, Arizona State and many more.
Why watch: The West region always has major quarterback prospects and Miller could turn out to be the best of the bunch. He has a big arm, is very accurate, and is more mobile than people give him credit for. Miller has already started attacking the recruiting trail with recent visits to Florida State and North Carolina. Look for him to possibly make trips to Clemson, Oregon, Florida, and a return trip to Ohio State.

Current offers: Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, LSU, Miami, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Penn State, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Virginia Tech and many others.
Why watch: Before Pyne started a high school game, he was wowing coaches at college campus across the country. He isn't the tallest quarterback but there is no doubting his arm talent. Pyne may play against subpar competition in Connecticut, but his family has connections to major college programs across the country. The Pyne family was the first family to have three generations play in the NFL and his father, George Pyne, is a former President of IMG Sports and Entertainment as well as the former COO of NASCAR.
