There’s no question that Mayfield is the biggest riser in this year’s quarterback class. The Sooners senior quarterback posted an absurd 203.8 passer efficiency rating and has Oklahoma in place to compete for a National Championship in the College Football Playoff.

At 6-foot-1, 220-pounds there are some concerns with Mayfield’s size at the next level. But the Sooners walk-on transfer quarterback has done nothing but prove doubters wrong his entire college career.

Mayfield has led Oklahoma to three consecutive Big 12 titles despite a coaching change ahead of his senior season. He has thrown 41 touchdowns to five interceptions in 2017, and while some question his sideline antics, there is no doubting his passion for the game. Both Kiper and Miller have him ranked as the fourth best quarterback in this year’s draft class, but in the right system, Mayfield could flourish at the next level.

It will be interesting to follow Mayfield through the draft evaluation process, as his film speaks for itself.
