Memo to NFL teams who need a quarterback: wait until next year.

While plenty of questions surround the top passers in this year’s class, the 2018 NFL draft could be one of the best in recent memory.

USC’s Sam Darnold is the best of that bunch, and is already generating plenty of buzz throughout the league, per Daniel Jeremiah of NFL Network:

Text from NFL exec– biggest talk at Combine, and it's not close–USC QB is rare. (It's tough to ignore him when you're studying other guys) — Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) March 1, 2017

Listed at 6-4, 225 pounds, Darnold took over as the Trojans’ starter after three games last season. After starting the year 1-3, the Trojans won their final nine games behind Darnold to close out the season, including a dramatic 52-49 shootout win in the Rose Bowl against Penn State.

He ended the year with 31 touchdown passes and just nine interceptions, tossing five scores in a game three times and completing over 67 percent of his passes.

Darnold has the physical traits, mental tools and intangibles NFL teams want at the game’s most important position. He’s already dominating the conversation as a top prospect, and he’s not even eligible this time around.
