Lamar Jackson had been one of the best college quarterback throughout the 2010s as he won a Heisman Trophy and almost another in his three years with Louisville but was doubted heading into the NFL Draft.
Although an extremely unique athlete at the position, a number of NFL teams reportedly had doubts about his abilities as passer, and how that would translate to the professionals.
Jackson had been somewhat inaccurate as a passer at college, never completing over 60% of his passes and throwing 27 interceptions in 38 games. However, his unique style of play saw him such a threat as a runner, that he was projected to be drafted early in the first-round.
