The Felger & Mazz Big Board nearly hit on Tom Brady's successor at quarterback in New England when it nailed Jimmy Garoppolo. So why not give it another go?

Markers flew around the Sports Hub studio for one more day before the start of the 2019 NFL Draft on Thursday night. There's no more important position in football than quarterback, so they really needed to make this one count.

(Starts at 35:56)

Here are the quarterbacks that the guys hit on the big board this time:

Daniel Jones, Duke (Drafted by the Giants)
Clayton Thorson, Northwestern
Eric Dungey, Syracuse

The Patriots reportedly held pre-draft visits with both Jones and Thorson. The former is a possibility to be drafted in the first round, where the Patriots began the draft with the No. 32 overall pick.

And thus concludes another week of the Felger & Mazz Big Board! They also chucked markers at defensive backs and linebackers, offensive and defensive linemen, and receivers, running backs, and tight ends.
