I only posted the link because the entire article wouldn't copy over due to the film breakdown files on Lynch. Don't hesitate to check it out. This is one of the better one's I have read. Not the usual fluff piece. Actually, pretty decent analysis.

From the Article:

The Bottom Line:
The top two QBs in this class are head and shoulders above the rest, but Paxton Lynch has a good chance to stand alone as the third guy. He has all of the physical tools that NFL teams love, and while his offense makes a comprehensive evaluation and projection to the NFL tricky, there is much to like. The issue is how much of a question mark projecting him into a pro-style system is, and how confident can any team be in doing that?

When one adds in the troubling accuracy and anticipation on intermediate throws – the NFL’s bread and butter – there are enough questions about Lynch to keep him well away from Goff and Wentz. It’ll perhaps make him a later-round player, even if the position he plays will likely dictate he is drafted higher.

....The Memphis QB draws a comparison to Joe Flacco, but must improve on his accuracy and anticipation.
..
My Take:
Maybe as a fourth round pick -- but no higher.
Why spend another draft choice on a developmental Quarterback.
The Rams already have one of those, on the roster now.
Plus - we can't do anything - until we get rid of Nick Foles.
The Rams are "handicapped" for two more seasons.
