ESPN - Meet the 2020 NFL draft quarterback class

Jacob Eason, Washington

NFL evaluator on Eason: "He's an interesting one because he's got such limited tape. Hardly played at Georgia, then transferred and had to sit out. He's tall, athletic and has big-time arm talent. But with him there's a lot of inexperience, and it's hard to evaluate quarterbacks if you don't see them go through situations more than once. If he comes out, there will be a limited amount of tape to evaluate him. But you can feel the arm strength and the athleticism." -- NFL scout

Joe Burrow, LSU

NFL evaluator on Burrow: "Amazing story. Really wasn't on the radar at the beginning of this year as an early-round guy, but he's got some skills, and he's answered every question. Looks like the kind of guy you want as a franchise-type guy. The pre-draft process will dig into it more, but he's got NFL throws. He seems like he's got the right stuff inside of him." -- NFL personnel executive

Tua Tagovailoa, Alabama

NFL evaluator on Tagovailoa: "You love the talent and what he's accomplished, but there were health concerns. What will the combine medicals show? You're going to want your own doctors to get a look at him. He comes with a lot of questions right now just because you don't know when you'll have him." -- NFL personnel executive

Justin Herbert, Oregon

NFL evaluator on Herbert: "An immensely talented and athletic quarterback and an even better person. He's shown he's a winner. If you were building a video-game quarterback, it would look like this. The height, the arm, the athleticism all jump out at you. He showed he actually was a leader and had presence this year. You look at the way his teammates look at him and talk about him, and it says everything." -- NFL scout
