Jeff Driskel, Louisiana Tech: Draft Profile

Jeff Driskel is being considered a sleeper pick by many in the upcoming NFL draft. People better start waking up.

College: Louisiana Tech

Position: Quarterback

Height/Weight: 6-4/234

Driskel has had quite the roller coaster of a college experience. After being one of the top-rated quarterbacks in the nation in high school, Driskel started his playing career at Florida. He played sparingly his freshman year and earned the starting job in his sophomore season. A mixture of injury and unreasonably high expectations caused the remainder of his time to be much less than promised

After graduating from Flordia as a redshirt junior, Driskel transferred to Louisiana Tech to finish out his playing time in the NCAA.
