I hope you guys are all enjoying this debate because it’s going to only get louder and louder over the next year.

Fields and Lawrence are without a doubt the two biggest quarterback prospects on the board, and they’re almost locks to be the first two passers taken.

Clearly, oddsmakers think the Clemson superstar projects better to the NFL than Fields. As I’ve said many times (and will continue saying), I would take Lawrence without hesitation as the first pick of the 2021 draft.

He’s the best quarterback prospect I’ve ever seen. He has a monster arm, is an athlete and can make any throw needed.

While he might not be as fast as Fields, his arm is simply unreal.

There’s a lot of football still to be played, but I’ll be shocked if we see Lawrence’s draft stock fall. The young man is a superstar.
