Jordan Love is believed by many to be the fourth-best quarterback in the 2020 NFL Draft class, but one NFL GM thinks he is actually the most exciting.
Peter King of NBC's Football Morning in America interviewed a couple of different GM's to talk about many different things revolving around the draft:
One last note, from a GM who has been in the quarterback market, on the number four QB in the draft: “Jordan Love’s a polarizing player. He’s the most exciting quarterback in the draft. He’s not Mahomes, but coached well, he could become a really good player.”
Even getting in the same sentence as Patrick Mahomes is a huge compliment, and whoever drafts him could be getting the steal of the draft, much like the Kansas City Chiefs did.
Love is a guy that teams who need quarterbacks are taking a close look at. Texas Tech coach Matt Wells who was the former coach at Utah State said there have been seven NFL coaches who have called him in the last few days:
“I think they are just trying to put the complete story together on him,” Wells said via Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.
There's a lot to process. Scouts and execs are torn on Love. Some see the best pure thrower in the draft, others see a Day 2 pick.
The one NFL GM who thinks Love is the most exciting quarterback in the draft said one key thing, it depends on what team he goes to.
Hopefully, Love goes to a good team that can get the most out of him.
