NFL Draft Rumors: Malik Willis Blowing Away Coaches, Execs During Combine Meetings

The top quarterback prospects in this year's draft are from Pitt and Liberty, according to many around the NFL.

According to The Athletic's Jeff Howe, Willis might be setting himself apart with how he's impressed league personnel during this week's NFL combine.

The overwhelming majority of those evaluators believe that Willis has the highest ceiling of the signal-callers, but he will need at least a season to develop.

This year's draft is notable because it will likely be the first time in two years that a quarterback isn't selected with the top pick. It is possible that a quarterback is not chosen in the first round.

He might prove to be worth taking a chance on because of his huge potential. In his second season with Liberty, he threw for 2,857 yards with 27 touchdown and 12 interception, while adding 878 yards on the ground and 13 rushing touchdown.

According to Brooke Pryor, the quarterback told reporters Wednesday that he believes he should be the first quarterback off the board in April.

The Atlanta Falcons could be the team to watch in the first round of the draft, according to Mel Kiper Jr.

Maybe Atlanta. The heir-apparent to Matt Ryan passed on quarterbacks. Is the heir-apparent passed on this year? If the draft process is strong over the next 94 days, I think the Atlanta Falcons could end up with the best player in this year's draft, with the 8th pick.

On Wednesday, he will participate in throwing drills at the combine. He did not want to run the 40-yard dash.
