#3. KYLE TRASK

Trask experienced a breakout season in 2019, and will be one of the more underrated quarterback prospects in the SEC next year.  In his first season as the Gators’ starter, he threw for 2,941 yards and had a 25:7 touchdown to interception ratio.

The conference’s second leading passer a season ago, he led Florida to an 11-2 record and a top 10 finish in the final AP poll.  Trask isn’t the dual threat that Wilson and Mond are, but he’s certainly proven his abilities in leading a high-powered offense against stout SEC defenses.

In his only matchup against the Gamecocks, the junior-to-be threw for 200 yards and four touchdowns.  He did throw one pick, and had another called back, which might be the reason he’s not No. 2 on this list, but with another productive year Trask has the potential to be an early entry for the 2021 NFL draft.

SportingNews ranks the Texas native as the 14th-best quarterback in college football.
