Atlanta is also tied for first place in a putrid NFC South, so they're not worried about where they're picking in the draft. The Falcons are currently slotted to draft 15th overall and it will be challenging to get a quarterback from that spot. You can fairly put them on the list of teams that will be in the first-round quarterback mix next April. Maybe rookie Desmond Ridder is the QB of the future, but that's no sure thing. Even in a 35-17 Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in which the Falcons trailed by double digits for about the final 50 minutes of the game, they attempted only 13 passes.

There are nine teams with three wins (the Indianapolis Colts have a tie to go with their three wins). The Detroit Lions, Pittsburgh Steelers and Las Vegas Raiders also have just two wins, but they have one fewer loss due to byes. Walker has had some stunningly bad games. Baker Mayfield didn't play well to start the season, then he got hurt, and P.J. They're 2-7, in part because their quarterback play has been bad. Right now the Panthers would have the second overall pick of the draft. The NFL draft has plenty of mistakes, but teams' rankings are also a lot more accurate than anyone wants to admit. The higher you go in the draft, the better prospect you get. Others could get into the first round, but there's clearly a top tier. It's possible, given how many teams need quarterbacks, those QBs could end up going 1-2-3. But we've seen quarterbacks rise in the pre-draft process after the season is done. Stroud of Ohio State, Bryce Young of Alabama and Will Levis of Kentucky going in the top six.
