Tier 4: Fields
Tier 5: Lance (who I'd put below Trask for sure)

As long shots go, I can also see Book being a 3rd QB just as described up the thread. But since he's been mentioned, I'd say that if a QB Whisperer could fix him, K.J. Costello might be a guy who ends up with an unintended start or two someday after being the 3rd guy in the QB room for a while.

i would put Wilson at tier 2, only for the subtle things I see on all 22 film, mainly release and how fast he processes his reads, which is the biggest hurdle going from college to the NFL. He is actually better than Lawrence in this regard, just not at his level in all the other metrics. And the size thing is overplayed, he measured just over 6'2 214 and 9.5 hand size at his pro day, same size as Mac Jones and 10 pounds lighter than Fields and Lance, which doesn't make that much of a difference taking NFL hits. He also moves within the pocket as well as any of them.
