2015 NFL Draft Prospects: Donovan James’ Top Quarterbacks

Each and every year a widely unique set of quarterback prospects enter the draft, go through off-season all-star games, workouts and compete in the combine before training with private coaches and attending pro days and this year is no different. The 2015 draft class isn’t full of top tier quarterbacks but there are still talented throwers in this bunch.

Following the combine, draft experts have an even playing field to compare and contrast each prospect’s measurables. Heights, weights, 40-yard dash times, cone shuttle drills, wonderlic scores and bench reps are the main focus and Indianapolis shined a bright light on “The Big Three” Hundley, Mariota and Winston and a few more.

Cody Fajardo shined the brightest outside the big three with amazing touch on Saturday morning a 4.63 4o time and he knocked the interviews out of the park. Bryan Bennett and Jerry Lovelocke had a nice week at the combine.

The NFL Draft isn’t held until April 30th-May 2nd (2015) in Chicago, IL but this evening I will help guide you into the world of quarterbacks. I’ve had more than a little help from a scouts (NFL and College) former players, current FCS/FBS players, position coaches and the elite world of draftniks but all rankings are my own.

So here it is the top 25 quarterbacks of the 2015 class. For more on all things NFL Draft follow me on twitter @donjamessports
