Jacob Eason makes this list not because he showed us anything new, but because he proved what we already thought. He has the best arm in the class, and his deep balls were a thing of beauty.

He needed to outperform Herbert and Jordan Love in the long passes, and he did just that. I don’t think he goes above either in the draft, but he should be a definite first round or early second round pick, and whoever drafts him is going to love the pick.

In the age of Patrick Mahomes and big armed quarterbacks, Eason stands out as one of the best in the country. I think he has future starter potential in the NFL, and could prove many wrong with his ability to throw the ball.
