WATCH: QB prospects go through drills at NFL Scouting Combine

NFL NFL Scouting Combine (Organization) nflnetwork NFLPlus Bo Nix Falcons JJ McCarthy Michael Penix Jr Caleb Williams Drake Maye

It’s a good year to need a quarterback as the 2024 NFL draft class is loaded with promising QB prospects. Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, J.J. McCarthy, Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix are all projected to be selected in the first two rounds.

The Atlanta Falcons currently hold the No. 8 overall pick in the draft, but they could trade up or down based on who they’re targeting. The quarterbacks took the field at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine on Saturday, although Williams, Maye and Daniels did not participate in passing drills.

Fortunately, the Falcons got the chance to see Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy, Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. and Oregon’s Bo Nix throw the ball around. Check out highlights from Saturday’s quarterback drills below:
