Trevor Lawrence Goes No. 1 to Jacksonville in 1st Mock Draft; Best QB Prospect Since Andrew Luck
In the Ringer's newest NFL Draft Guide, former Clemson Tigers QB Trevor Lawrence has been slotted as the newest No. 1 overall pick, which would have him join newly appointed Jaguars HC Urban Meyer as the next building blocks of the franchise.
Danny Kelly, the mastermind behind the thorough draft guide put out by The Ringer, said this in regards to Trevor Lawrence's possible areas of improvement:
"There are a few areas in which Lawrence will need to continue to improve. His ball placement on throws to the outside can be erratic―there were times he hit receivers on the inside shoulder when he should’ve led them to the outside, and he leaves deep passes a bit short, or puts too much air under them, on occasion. Lawrence’s receivers did plenty to help him out when his accuracy was off, but his margin for error will shrink at the next level."
The hype for Lawrence to become an NFL QB has been swirling since his championship run as a true freshman, but it remains to be seen if Lawrence will rise or fall with the pressure surely coming his way.
