Lawrence is nearly unanimous as the projected top overall pick for April’s draft. He is also considered the top QB.

ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. lists Lawrence as the No. 1 QB, ahead of Ohio State’s Justin Fields, BYU’s Zach Wilson, Alabama’s Mac Jones and North Dakota State’s Trey Lance as first-round quarterbacks.

Kiper’s overall top three (from Dec. 17) is Lawrence, Oregon’s Penei Sewell and Fields.
