The College Football Playoff will feature plenty of top NFL talent, whether it is eligible or not. This is the talent level you expect to see in a game of caliber.
Will Howard was an accomplished quarterback before he arrived in Columbus for the 2024 college football season. The only thing that had eluded him was a trip to the College Football Playoff and an opportunity to become a national champion. He didn’t fit the mold of a typical Ohio State quarterback or at least that was the perception. Howard changed the narrative and is 60 minutes away from ending his collegiate career by riding into the sunset as a champion.
After four seasons with the Kansas State Wildcats and one with Ohio State, Howard is on his way to the next level with no eligibility left.
Will Howard, Quarterback
Draft Projection: Round 4
Howard showed what he could do at the next level for the past five seasons. The dual threat has the size to withstand the punishment as a runner and passer. The former Kansas State quarterback showed he can score on the ground with his legs and attack defenses downfield with his strong arm. Though not always the most accurate passer, he could certainly develop that area of his game. Howard displays the physical tools to be a good starting quarterback in the NFL.
