1. Kenny Pickett

What about a gunslinger from the college ranks? Over at Pittsburgh, quarterback Kenny Pickett has seen his NFL Draft stock rise like no one else this year. That’s easy to understand with him balling out like he has.

On the season, Pickett has thrown for 1,934 yards, 21 touchdowns and just one interception. With Pickett playing so well, the Panthers are 5-1 on the season. In the 28-7 win over Virginia Tech on Saturday, Pickett finished with 203 passing yards and two touchdowns, while adding a rushing score too.

The senior has really grown as a signal-caller and NFL scouts are already doing their homework on him. For the Dolphins, he could certainly be a step up from Tagovailoa and really get the offense moving in the right direction.

While fans might like the idea of Wilson or Rodgers taking over, Pickett would be a great addition as well. Hey, the last time a former Pitt Panther was the star for Miami under center, things turned out pretty well you could say with Hall-of-Famer Dan Marino.
