- Trey Lance, NDSU | Round 1, Pick 3 | San Francisco 49ers. After much discussion around the San Francisco 49ers’ selection, they chose Trey Lance third overall.
- Justin Fields, Ohio State | Round 1, Pick 11 | Chicago Bears. The first trade during the draft itself was a move by the Chicago Bears for Justin Fields.
- Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson. Grade: A. Jacksonville couldn't do better than this after earning the first overall pick and a generational talent at the position who stands out even in a top-heavy draft class.
- New York Jets: Zach Wilson, QB, BYU. Grade: A- The Jets surprised some by locking into Wilson so soon over Justin Fields, Trey Lance and Mac Jones as their replacement for Sam Darnold.
- San Francisco 49ers (from Dolphins): Trey Lance, QB, North Dakota State. Grade: A. The 49ers pulled off a mild shocker by going with the high-ceiling prospect vs. the high floor of Mac Jones.

- Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville Jaguars. You saw “it” in Week 18, and that is why he won’t be falling from this top spot this offseason. The former No. 1 overall pick showed more high-end quarterbacking plays than anyone else in the rookie class by some margin.
- Mac Jones, New England Patriots. As the saying goes, “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” With Jones, we’ve already seen what he is, and it was the 12th-highest-graded quarterback in the NFL in 2021.
- Justin Fields, Chicago Bears. At an absolute minimum, Fields is still one of the most dynamic runners at the quarterback position in the NFL. The crazy thing is, Matt Nagy & Co.
- Trey Lance, San Francisco 49ers. Picking between Lance and FIelds for the No. 3 spot came down to splitting hairs, but the fact that we only got to see limited action from the third overall pick made this difference.
