Welcome to the latest hot button topic in the Detroit Lions draft community: Liberty quarterback Malik Willis.
Willis has been the talk of Mobile, as everyone seems to have an opinion about the dynamic quarterback, his future in the NFL, and where he should be selected. ESPN’s Todd McShay has gushed over him on Senior Bowl broadcasts, touting him as his QB1 in this draft. Others like him slightly less than Kenny Pickett, who is more NFL ready, while acknowledging Willis could have the higher ceiling.
The Lions staff has also been impressed with Willis.
