NFL Draft 2019: 10 Players that will dominate conversation

6. Drew Lock, QB, Missouri

Drew Lock could end up as the top quarterback selected in the 2019 NFL Draft. Like most quarterbacks coming out of college though, there are some concerns. The offense he plays in doesn’t ask him to go through progressions. And his predetermined reads sometimes lead to interceptions. Nevertheless, at first glance, there’s a lot to like about Lock. He’s 6-5, 225 pounds with a rocket arm, touch and plus athleticism. There aren’t many questions regarding his arm strength — he can make all the throws.

In fact, it’s his ability to thread the needle that’s most impressive throws. Inside the pocket, Lock shows quick feet and the ability to sense pressure. He often gets the ball out quickly with his impressive release. Like Josh Allen last season, Lock’s receivers contributed to his completion percentage falling under 60 last season. If Lock can improve on his deep ball accuracy and interceptions he could hear his name called within the top 10 picks of the draft.

As a matter of fact, odds are in his favor to hear his names called No. 1 overall:

Lock will hear his name a lot in the media. But is he a lock for the No. 1 overall pick? With great games against teams like Georgia this season where he can prove himself, there’s no reason to believe he won’t hear his name called first come April.
