Each week at PFF, we've given you an overview of all the top draft-eligible quarterbacks across the college football world, with eyes towards the 2018 NFL draft. Now seven weeks into the season, with reputations building and some performances shining, it's time to rank those top draft-eligible quarterbacks in our weekly feature.
Below you will find the top draft-eligible quarterbacks from across the country, and how they stack up against one another in both traditional and advanced statistics, ranked by their overall PFF grade so far this season. While these rankings are obviously not how they'll either finish, nor how they are projected to be drafted, these rankings serve as a guideline to rank how each quarterback has fared for their respective teams, while our advanced stats further depict how they may fare at the next level.
With that, here are our takes on the top 13 draft-eligible quarterbacks, that you won't get anywhere else.
1. Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma – 92.9 overall grade
Game Grade vs. Texas: 88.3
Aside from two uncharacteristic poor decisions, only one of which was intercepted, Mayfield continued to spread the ball with accuracy all over the field. He hit all three of his deep shots for 157 yards and two touchdowns and he leads the nation with an adjusted completion percentage of 65.7 percent on deep passes this season. Through seven weeks, Mayfield is leading the nation in percentage of positively-graded throws while ranking second in avoiding negatively-graded throws, and he’s simply playing better than all other quarterbacks at this point.
