Stetson Bennett in Mock Drafts
According to NFL Mock Draft Database, Bennett is projected to be an undrafted free agent. This may seem crazy for a QB that is playing in the national championship but many view Stetson as a classic overachiever. Unfortunately, you can’t coach someone to get taller. His value has dove throughout the year as scouts got to watch him play. Below is a list of mock drafts and where they have Bennett going.

Would Stetson Bennett Fit on the Packers?
If the Packers spend a pick on Bennett I would consider it malpractice. He is definitely a product of the talent around him. Georgia is set to have multiple first-rounders and many more taken throughout the draft. Quarterback is also not a position the Packers are prioritizing as they have two starter-caliber quarterbacks on their roster. If they were to draft a quarterback, I would expect one with a higher upside.

Bennett will be an enigma for any team. He does have a skill set that works in the NFL but his size is such a concern that it’s hard to see where he fits. I expect some team to bring him in on the practice squad but outside of that, it would be surprising to see him taken in the draft.
