57. I did not change my mind about this being a weak QB class and suggesting DeShone Kizer stay in school. But this being a weak draft class is exactly why he may come out in the 2017 NFL Draft. And he is still the most pro ready QB with all the Spread QBs in this class. <p>Mitch Trubisky is the latest Spread Offense QB many in the draft world are trying to push. His numbers look lovely but his ability to throw the ball down the field into tight windows isn’t. Both he and DeShaun Watson have been exposed this year as QBs with a long way to go.</p> <p>Meanwhile, DeShone Kizer comes from Brian Kelly’s pro style offense at Notre Dame. He knows how to check into better plays, change protections and go through his progressions. Plus at 6’5, 235 pounds, he’s a big man with a big arm and he’s as athletic as he needs to be.</p> <p>There are no QBs worth a pick this high but a team desperate for one will reach for one. And if there is a kid at the QB position worth as selection this high, Kizer is definitely that guy. So the Bears move on from the Jay Cutler era with Kizer as their young gun under center.</p>. QB. Notre Dame. DeShone Kizer. 3. player
