Prospects Comments
NFL - Spread quarterbacks have had limited success as have small quarterbacks. Mayfield falls into both categories and has to prove he can transcend those perceived deficiencies on the next level. Having complete command of the Oklahoma offense isn't an automatic precursor for NFL success, but Mayfield's ability to process, extend plays and throw with accuracy give him a good shot. He'll be somewhat scheme-dependent so whoever takes him will need to be willing to build their offense around his strengths.
DLF - Combine review  Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield is another player with some off-field questions after his tumultuous final college season. Some seem worried about his attitude as well and he was described as “over the top cocky” during Combine weekend. The good news for Mayfield is he measured in at over 6’0” tall, which still puts him behind most successful NFL quarterbacks, but is a threshold some get caught up with when analyzing a signal-caller. Mayfield drew positive reviews in passing drills and seemed to lock himself in as a potential top 15 NFL Draft pick with room to go even higher.
CBS - Experienced, accurate passer with some improvisational skills. Rarely misses first read at short and intermediate levels and showed flashes of defender manipulation. Threw to a multitude of wide open targets in college and his accuracy noticeably dipped down the field. Has tendency to instantly morph into a runner with pressure mounting.
DLF - PROJECTED ROOKIE DRAFT RANGE     Mayfield is currently coming off the board as the QB1 at pick 19. This feels like the right range for Mayfield, as quarterbacks don’t typically go very high in rookie drafts. I’d considered Mayfield at the earliest in the middle of round two if I needed a quarterback. He’s my QB1 and this is typically where I start to think about quarterbacks in rookie drafts.
