Getty 2020 NFL Draft Quarterback Rankings: LSU's Joe Burrow
Welcome to our 2020 NFL Draft prospect rankings for the most important position in all of football, the quarterback.
Heisman Trophy Winner Joe Burrow has seen a meteoric rise from mid-round developmental player to near-homerun first overall draft pick in under a year. Burrow is fresh off of an absurd seven touchdown performance and has completed 71% of his passes in every single game this season. If Burrow goes out on Monday night and performers the same way he has all year, he will likely cement his name as the first to be announced come late April.
However, if Burrow were to falter against a stingy Clemson defense in the National Championship game, it could potentially open the door for Tua Tagovailoa to reclaim his original place amongst the quarterback hierarchy. That is, if his medical checks out.
Reminder: These are player rankings, not a Mock Draft. Just because we may grade a player higher on our board than another player, doesn’t mean we projected them to be the higher selection come draft day.
