It can be foolish to rank NFL Draft prospects a year before the next draft. At this point last year, LSU quarterback Joe Burrow was around +20000 to win the 2019 Heisman Trophy and was barely a blip on the radar of NFL scouts following a so-so first season as LSU’s starter in 2018.

Of course, Burrow in 2019 had arguably the best season ever by a quarterback in major college football, setting FBS single-season records in passing touchdowns (60) and total touchdowns (65) in winning the Heisman Trophy and leading the Tigers to the national championship. Burrow went No. 1 overall in the 2020 NFL Draft to the Cincinnati Bengals. It was an almost unprecedented rise.
