Gamecocks could have a future first-rounder at quarterback, draft projections say | The State

Jake Bentley turned in a solid 2017 football season for South Carolina.

After flashing potential in half a freshman season, he had moments last fall, but was neither as prolific or as consistent as some has projected.

But that hasn't some from seeing him as a potential first-round NFL draft pick should he choose to forgo his senior season.

SB Nation's Dan Kadar slotted Bentley as the No. 29 pick in a recent mock the draft, headed to the Green Bay Packers. That's the home of future Hall of Famer Aaron Rogers, who is right in his mid-30s.
