The draft stock of Texas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes continues to rise.
ESPN draft guru Mel Kiper Jr. now has Mahomes as his No. 2 QB prospect for the 2017 NFL draft, second only to North Carolina's Mitch Trubisky.
Writes Kiper: "Mahomes is the big mover here. He has an NFL body (6-3, 230) and an NFL arm. He's going to take time to adjust to the NFL, though, and whichever team that picks him will have to be patient."
There's been speculation lately that Mahomes might consider making the jump to the NFL.
