Patraw's Rankings 2022 NFL Draft: Quarterbacks

Zack Patraw brings you his top rankings for the quarterbacks in the 2022 NFL Draft.

With the NFL Draft just days away, it's time to finalize the rankings and make some tough decisions on where to rank these prospects. We are starting with the quarterback position, where my top 10 quarterbacks are ranked and project the round I would feel comfortable drafting them.

The quarterbacks this year are interesting. There's no clear No. 1 guy, but there's some really good depth to the class. You could make the argument for either Malik Willis or Kenny Pickett at the top, but after that, it's a mixed bag with Desmond Ridder, Carson Strong, Matt Corral and Sam Howell. I have my favorites, but if I'm a general manager, I'm trying to grab one of the top two, and if I don't end up with one of them, I'm waiting until Day 3 to grab a quarterback I can hopefully develop into a spot starter and quality backup.

While the talent isn't phenomenal like it has been in years past, I still believe there are quality arms that can be selected later in the draft. Guys like Cole Kelley, Skylar Thompson and EJ Perry have their fans, and I'm one of those if I can grab them at the back end of the draft. They possess enough tools to work with and you can develop a few more tools with proper coaching and experience. 

With all that said, below are my 2022 NFL Draft too-10 rankings for the quarterbacks. With the type of signal-callers that we have in this year's draft, you're unlikely to find rankings that line up exactly the same. It's going to be a very interesting draft when looking at where these quarterbacks will go. Buckle up!
