ESPN college football analyst Tom Luginbill thinks Mississippi State quarterback Nick Fitzgerald has a bright future — like “first-round NFL draft pick” bright.
I do think Fitz will be a 1st rounder though.

Fitzgerald burst onto the scene last fall, when he became the Bulldogs’ starting quarterback in the wake of Dak Prescott’s graduation. Fitzgerald led the SEC in total offense with 3,798 yards; he threw for 2,658 yards and 21 TDs, and ran for 1,375 yards and 16 TDs.
As effective as he was, though, there is room for improvement as a passer.
