Baker Mayfield Reportedly Called 'Most Accurate' QB Ever Evaluated by NFC Coach

Kyle NewportApr 5, 2018

When it comes to separating himself from other quarterbacks in the 2018 NFL draft class, Baker Mayfield may have one advantage over the field.

His accuracy.

One NFC quarterbacks coach told The MMQB's Albert Breer the former Oklahoma Sooners star is the most accurate passer he's ever seen coming out of college: "He doesn’t miss throws."

Now that's high praise.

The 6'1", 215-pound signal-caller threw for 12,292 yards and 119 touchdowns in three years in Norman,  adding 893 yards and 18 scores on the ground. While those numbers jump off the page by themselves, he also completed an impressive 69.8 percent of his passes as a Sooner.

Critics will be quick to point out that Mayfield played against soft Big 12 defenses. However, one NFL quarterbacks coach believes that the 2017 Heisman Trophy winner's accuracy will translate anywhere.

NFL teams will have to decide just how much they love Mayfield's skill set. He arguably has the most red flags of any top prospect in the draft, from his run-in with the law to an in-game crotch grab. But in the end, organizations will put up with character issues if the player can help the team win. 

Bleacher Report's Matt Miller ranked Mayfield as the fourth-best quarterback at the end of the combine.
