1. Trace McSorley, Penn State - Trace McSorley won’t have the same playmakers to count on that he did last season, but this is a guy who has over 7,000 passing yards and 59 touchdowns in three years at Penn State. McSorley hasn’t lost many games since his high school days and has that mentality that allows him to will his team to victories. McSorley is the most complete QB in the country.
2. Will Grier, West Virginia - In just 11 games last season, Will Grier had 3,490 passing yards and 34 touchdowns. Grier will be this years Baker Mayfield, which makes West Virginia a sleeper for the college football playoff and even national title. We’ll get to those two things as we inch closer toward the college football season.
3. Khalil Tate, Arizona - Khalil Tate averaged 9.22 rushing yards per carry last season, which was the best in college football. Tate is a headache to defend, and his stats will be off the charts with a full season under his belt. Tate is a legit Heisman candidate and somebody you should be looking to bet on.
4. Jake Fromm, Georgia - Jake Fromm had 2,615 passing yards and 24 touchdowns, and he seemed to gain confidence as the season dragged out. With a season under his belt, Fromm should be ready to take that next step and become Georgia’s best QB since Aaron Murray.
5. Jake Browning, Washington - Washington didn’t live up to expectations last season, but Jake Browning is still a QB who has 9,104 career passing yards, 78 touchdowns and just 24 interceptions. Give Browning time, and he’s picking your defense apart. Browning gives the Huskies a chance to chase a Pac-12 title this season.
