Top 10 Quarterbacks in the 2020 NFL Draft: No. 3 Justin Herbert, Oregon
By John Newman
To help you get ready for the upcoming quarterback class, we created a top ten list of quarterbacks available in the 2020 NFL Draft.
In the upcoming days, we will continue to release a list of the top ten quarterbacks in the 2020 NFL Draft. Each day, we will be reviewing a different quarterback that will be available this April for NFL teams to draft. Whether they won a national title or had a losing record, these quarterbacks showed signs in college that indicated they should be selected in the upcoming draft and make an active roster in 2020.
Posted below are the players on this list we have made it through so far:
10) Nate Stanley- Iowa
9) Shea Patterson- Michigan
8) Jacob Eason- Washington
7) Jalen Hurts- Oklahoma
6) Jake Fromm- Georgia
5) Anthony Gordon- Washington State
4) Jordan Love- Utah State
In these articles, we will be reviewing the quarterback’s background: their history, how they got recruited and what their time in college was like. Afterward, we’ll go into a film analysis of the player: how they threw, what their mechanics were like, what they did well and didn’t do well. And finally, we’ll make a draft prediction for them, the teams that fit their style, where in the draft they could be selected and what role they can expect to take once there.
Rounding out the top three on this list is Justin Herbert, quarterback for the Oregon Ducks.
Expected to compete with Kyler Murray for the number one overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, Herbert opted to return to Oregon for his senior season last year. Looking to cement his legacy for the team he grew up watching, Herbert passed up millions of dollars in the NFL to compete for a Pac-12 Championship and a possible National Championship.
While Herbert was able to win Oregon the Pac-12 Championship last season, a spot in the National Championship bracket eluded Herbert, as Oregon finished the season ranked sixth by the College National Championship committee.
