TL;DR

ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky argues Ty Simpson is the better NFL quarterback prospect than Indiana's Fernando Mendoza, saying Simpson's Alabama tape shows more NFL-ready throws and poise under pressure, while Mendoza has stronger college stats and height; teams are reportedly divided on the preference, which could influence draft positioning, though mocks largely differ on where Simpson lands.
