ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. still has Will Levis projected as a top 5 NFL Draft pick.
In his latest mock draft, Kiper has Levis going at pick No. 4 to the Indianapolis Colts.
Kiper has Levis going as the fourth quarterback behind Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud and Anthony Richardson.
Here is an excerpt of Kiper’s thoughts:
I’m sticking with Levis to Indianapolis here. General manager Chris Ballard could get lucky with my second-ranked quarterback still on the board. Why do I like Levis over Stroud and Richardson? Because of his ability both in and out of the pocket. In 2021, when Levis was really on, he made “wow” throws to every part of the field and also ran for nine scores. Last season, while dealing with injuries and after losing a lot of talent around him, he forced too many throws and was inconsistent. I think Levis’ floor is high, and he’ll be able to start immediately for the Colts.

If Levis goes in the top 5, he would be Kentucky’s highest pick since Dewayne Robertson in 2003.
