BYU QB Zach Wilson is flying up NFL Draft Boards | 2021 NFL Draft Prospect

Zach Wilson BYU 2021 NFL Draft
2021 NFL Draft Prospect Zach Wilson has been tearing it up this year. He has played his way into first round NFL talks. Keep an eye on this kid.

Zach Wilson almost ended up at Boise State, but BYU head coach Kalani Sitake was relentless in his pursuit of Wilson.

Zach Wilson grew up as a huge fan of Utah where his father Mike played. Utah did not offer Zach a scholarship though.

Zach Wilson is playing his way into NFL Draft discussions. He is flying up NFL Draft boards and maybe playing his way into the first round.

Zach Wilson has a little Johnny Manziel or Baker Mayfield in him. He is not as cocky, and he does not have the character issues. I am talking about their style of play. Wilson is a better runner than both of them and is way more accurate than both of them. Both of them were first round picks though.

This past weekend was Wilson’s worst game of the year. He threw his first interception. The pick ended a streak of 184 pass attempts without an interception, which set a school mark. It came on a bad decision, but BYU was up heavily at that point.

Wilson has been blowing up quickly, and Gil Brandt an NFL Hall of Fame evaluator talked about Wilson’s rise the other day on Twitter.

One of the nation’s smoothest quarterbacks is @BYUfootball‘s Zach Wilson. He’s had some incredible throws in this unbeaten season for BYU, including this one on third down Saturday. As pretty as you’ll see. Makes it look effortless. pic.twitter.com/bcyUuX3lAG
