I think it would be wise to discuss the upcoming crop of QBs and hold a separate topic for it. I haven't done a lot of scouting myself, but of the current QBs who have committed, I have:
Sure-fire franchise QB: None
1st round talent: Dwayne Haskins (Ohio State)
Borderline 1st round: Drew Lock (Missouri), Daniel Jones (Duke)
But I did see some interesting news today about the Heisman winner:
Murray is between 5' 9" to 5' 10", which would give teams some questions about his ability to play QB, and Murray originally planned to play baseball after football, but now things seem to be up in the air.

But I did see some interesting news today about the Heisman winner:
The San Francisco Chronicle reports 2018 Heisman Trophy Winner and 2018 Oakland A's first-round draft pick Kyler Murray will enter the NFL draft.
In and of itself, entering the draft would not necessarily mean Murray was foregoing his baseball career, but A's beat writer Susan Slusser reports he would be expected to focus on football if he did so. Super agent Scott Boras had previously insisted that Murray planned to report to A's spring training next month. Now that appears to be up in the air. We will gain more information in the coming days. Were Murray to commit to football, he would have a shot at coming off the board on Day 1.
