It might look wrong now, but in the weeks leading up to the 2021 NFL Draft there was a contingent of people who firmly believed that could become a possibility.
Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson and Trey Lance found themselves off the board with the first three picks in that draft, famously leaving Mac Jones and Fields as the first-round options left on the board.
