I think people have gone to sleep on Fields.  To me, he's still the second best QB in the draft.   Fields has a much longer track record than Wilson, who only has one great year and against very weak competition.  I'd take the guy who's done it longer, and against much better competition.  

The one that really baffles me, though is the Mac Jones thing.  Is it really possible that he will be picked 3rd overall.  Whatever they see in him, I can't see it.  Fields has a much higher ceiling than Mac Jones.

I would take Lawrence, Wilson, Jones, Lance and Trask over Fields. That guy is gonna be a bust. I've seen every single pass he's thrown at Ohio State, as I live in Ohio. He cannot read a defense. He stops after the first read and takes off running if any defender is within 5 yards of him. He was mostly working out of completely clean pockets all year and Chris Olave bailed him out of some bad situations with poorly thrown balls.
