As excited as we are to watch this group of quarterbacks play this upcoming college football season, mocking eight of them in the first round extends well beyond ambitious.

Look out for JC Latham

Alabama offensive tackle JC Latham went No. 27 in this mock draft but he really has the potential to go Top Five by next April. This entire offensive tackle class is very good but Latham might be the best of them.

All of the early mock drafts are following a similar theme. USC quarterback Caleb Williams going No. 1 overall and Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. going No. 2. It will be interesting to see if anyone can dethrone them over the next several months.
