2023 NFL Mock Draft: QBs fly off the board in top-10 picks
By Brad Weiss
QB. Washington Commanders. Will Levis. 7. player. 58.
Carson Wentz was brought in by the Washington Commanders to bring stability to the quarterback position, but it has not worked out. He is likely to be a short-term solution at the position group, so picking at No. 7 overall, they could be in the market for one of the good quarterbacks in this draft class.
Some mock drafts have Kentucky star quarterback Will Levis as the best signal-caller in this draft class, so the Commanders get a steal here. I believe this draft class is going to bring multiple Pro Bowl quarterbacks in the future, and Levis is bound to be one of them.
player. 50. . QB. Detroit Lions. Tanner McKee. 8
For the Detroit Lions, the question is not whether Jared Goff is a capable quarterback, as he has led this offense to a nice start in 2022. The big question is whether they feel he is going to be a long-term solution, or if they need to draft for the future.
In 2023, the Lions may decide to draft a quarterback and keep Goff around, helping the young player get his feet wet at the NFL level. That would be the smart thing to do, so even if they do select Tanner McKee here at No. 8 overall, it could be some time before Lions fans get to see him in action.
