I saw one projection that had 5 going in the 1st...Lamb, Hurts, Humphrey, Gallimore, & Murray.

I'm not an NFL scout, nor do I play one on TV, but I don't see Hurts as a first round NFL pick, unless he lights it up at the NFL Combine or OU Pro Day. I thought Humphrey had one more year of eligibility left before he could go pro?

If you look at the top QB's this year in the NFL none were 1st round picks and most were late round picks.
Hurts is one of 2 other College QB's to have 3,000 yds passing and 1,000 yds rushing, the other 2 were Heisman Winners and neither were named Mayfield or Murray.
