2020 NFL mock draft: Burrow or Young at No. 1? How far does Tua fall?
By Evan Bachman
Tom Brady is 42 and can’t play forever. Jacob Eason has the physical tools to be a franchise quarterback in the NFL, it’s just a matter of giving him the time to develop.
Eason was a highly coveted recruit in the 2016 class and you can see why with his elite size (6-6, 227 lbs) and arm strength. He started his freshman season at Georgia and after an injury in his sophomore season, he couldn’t get his job back from Jake Fromm and ended up transferring to Washington.
Eason has had a decent season with 2922 passing yards with a 63.8% completion percentage, 22 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 12 games.
The 49ers have a solid set of running backs in Matt Breida, Tevin Coleman and Raheem Mostert, but none of them are as talented as J.K. Dobbins, plus Breida is a free agent. His combination of speed, power and receiving abilities makes him the most complete back in the country and a coveted NFL prospect.
Dobbins has been dominant this season with 250 attempts, 1657 yards, 6.6 yards per carry and 19 touchdowns plus 17 catches, 200 yards and two touchdowns.
He has put up some crazy stat lines in Ohio State’s biggest games this year. Against Wisconsin, he had 23 touches for 221 yards and two touchdowns. Against Penn State, he had 37 touches for 168 yards and two touchdowns. Lastly and most impressive, against Michigan he had 33 touches for 260 yards and four touchdowns.
