New SI (consider the source) article declares Trevor Lawrence as the best QB to come out of college into the NFL in a decade! What???
That's a massive reach I mean Sunshine's great and has all the tools but what sets Burrow apart is his leadership skills next to great athletic ability and pinpoint accurate passing with great touch, Burrow's simply an amazing leader and attracts people to follow him and it produced great results, he insists upon leadership, hard to find many quarterbacks with that quality combined with great quarterback ability

They are enarmed by the tangibles that Lawrence brings to the table. Taller, better runner (maybe, but I don't think so), bigger arm. Lawrence just looks the role more so than Burrow. Will be interesting to watch their careers develop as I would bet most anything that Burrow proves to be the better NFL QB over their careers.
Also Lawrence came straight in as a true freshman and showed he could play, where as Burrow had to bounce around a little and took longer to really show what he could do.

Lawrence might be the better pro prospect, but the stats from their only head to head meeting tell a story of dominance.
Lawrence: 18/37 for 234 yds, 0 TDs, 0 INTs QBR=65.6. 49 yds rushing & 1TD
Burrow: 31/49 for 463 yds, 5 TDs, 0 INTs QBR=97.5. 58 yds rushing & 1TD

true, but so many say it, it seems they really believe it.

Buddy, Joe Burrow is a better QB than Lawrence (or Tua).

I've heard both answers from draft analysts and people who cover the nfl and ask those questions to gms on who would go first if joe was in this years draft
