NFL draft QB pro days: Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, Will Levis takeaways

Kentucky quarterback Will Levis concluded a string of pro day workouts for top quarterback prospects in the 2023 NFL draft on Friday. NFL team scouts and evaluators enjoyed a three-day stretch of pro days, which kicked off with Ohio State's C.J. Stroud on Wednesday, rolled through Alabama for Bryce Young on Thursday and finished up with Levis on Friday in Lexington. Florida's Anthony Richardson will have his pro day Thursday. I've been on the move, traveling to all three workouts so far.

Levis is currently my No. 3 quarterback and No. 14 overall prospect in the class. There's a good chance we will see all four of these quarterbacks drafted among the top 10 picks April 27, and Levis is right in the mix. He looked solid on Friday, showing off his strong arm.

Here are my biggest takeaways from Levis' pro day and what comes next for him. My thoughts on Stroud and Young from earlier in the week are also below.

More tied together… but work to do

Quarterback coach Jordan Palmer has been working with Levis for eight weeks now, trying to better tie his lower half to his upper body and develop a more fluid delivery for the projected first-round signal-caller.

Much of that was the result of still-developing mechanics — especially when it comes to footwork — and a lack of touch.

And at the scouting combine, Levis seemed a little rigid during the throwing session. He has such a tight, muscular upper body, and he seems to struggle with taking something off his throws when it's
