BERKELEY, Calif. — Nearly halfway through the college football season, there's still a fascinating race among the sport's top quarterbacks to see who'll be first one taken in the NFL draft this spring.

Heading into Week 6, there's still five quarterbacks who could claim the top spot, making this a particularly «muddy» year as one veteran scout termed it.

Part of that lack of conviction comes from the caliber of the quarterback crop, as it's considered a distinctly lower-quality quarterback class than the record class of six quarterbacks drafted in the Top 12 picks last year.

ESPN polled 20 NFL scouts and executives who evaluate college players to see where they stood right now on the top quarterback for the 2025 NFL Draft.
