What does he look like going all the way back to Matthew Stafford?
How does he compare to Trevor Lawrence?
What are his tools and talent like compared to those guys?

Everybody expects you to be the best player in the draft class.
And whether it's true or not, there's the expectation that when the number one overall pick takes the field, particularly as a QB one, he's special.

So let's see what he looks like in comparison with the guys that are really holding it down in the AFC landscape.
