METAIRIE, La. – Has there ever been less consensus on where the top two quarterback prospects will land in the NFL draft?
Depending on your mock draft of choice, Liberty’s Malik Willis and Pittsburgh’s Kenny Pickett are being projected anywhere from No. 2 to No. 20. And the New Orleans Saints are squarely in the middle of the mystery with picks 16 and 19.
Signing quarterbacks Jameis Winston and Andy Dalton in free agency suggest they might be content to go the veteran route. But then their intriguing trade for an extra first-round pick opened up a world of possibilities.
