How good will QBs Mitchell Trubisky, DeShaun Watson be? Ask their old coaches, now at UNT and SMU

NFL teams looking to upgrade themselves at the quarterback position ought to schedule a scouting layover in Dallas.

No, not to visit with Tony Romo. But rather to sit down with a couple of local colleges coaches, Seth Littrell at North Texas and Chad Morris at SMU.

There are four quarterbacks sitting near the top of the 2017 NFL draft board: DeShone Kizer of Notre Dame, Patrick Mahomes of Texas Tech, Mitchell Trubisky of North Carolina and DeShaun Watson of Clemson. Littrell and Morris have unique insight into what makes two of them tick.

Before Littrell became the head coach at North Texas in 2016, he was the assistant head coach for offense and play-caller at North Carolina.
