The 2027 NFL draft quarterback race looks very different. After five games, Oklahoma State’s Drew Mestemaker has climbed to No. 2 overall on Mel Kiper Jr.’s first big board.

Only Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith ranks higher. That also makes Drew Mestemaker Kiper’s top quarterback, ahead of several famous names who entered with more attention.
