Eh...depends do you believe in his talent? OR do you believe that he is a product of being a big fish in a small pond and looking good doing that.

I've seen him play 2 games, and I am super confused about why EVERYONE thought so highly of him. I mean drafting him over Fields is the most insane thing I have ever heard or seen.

So my opinion, if he went to NIU, no - he would not have been #3. This is a shockingly terrible reach. Not to say he can't be an NFL QB, but is he going to be Justin Fields? Time will tell.

I wonder too how much of his selection is the fact that the school has put out some NFL caliber quarterbacks lately (Carson Wentz and Easton Stick}

100% NDState has become the Bama of FCS because of High Profile guys like Wendt’s.
